METHOD FOR REPRODUCING CALL HOLD TONE AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE THEREFOR

Various embodiments of the present disclosure relate to a device and method for selectively reproducing a call hold tone in an electronic device. The electronic device includes: a communication interface configured to transmit/receive data for a voice call with a counterpart electronic device through a packet network; a processor electrically connected to the communication interface; and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory, at the time of execution, may store instructions which instruct the processor to set a call hold in response to a request made by the counterpart electronic device, to determine whether a Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) packet is received during a reference session, and to selectively reproduce a call hold tone in response to whether the RTP packet is received during the reference session. Other embodiments are possible.
