A mobile communication device is provided. The mobile communication includes a first touch display forming a portion of a first surface of the mobile communication device, a second touch display forming a portion of a second surface of the mobile communication device, and a processor configured to display in the first touch display a first screen corresponding to an application executed in a first folding state while a state of the device is the first folding state, identify the state of the mobile communication device changing to a second folding state, and display in the second touch display, based on the identification, a second screen corresponding to the application and an image partially overlapping the second screen, a touch input on the second touch display while the second screen and the image are displayed in the second touch display as overlapping is configured to not be processed as an input.

Electronic device and display control method thereof

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a hinge structure, a first housing, a second housing, a first display, a second display, and a processor. The processor may be set to control the first display to display a first screen of a first application while in a folded state, the first screen corresponding to the first display, control the second display to display a transition screen when unfolding is detected, and control the second display to display a second screen in replacement of the transition screen upon the completion of at least one operation set to be performed in order to display the second screen, corresponding to the second display, of the first application.

Foldable electronic device and operation method for same

An electronic device and method are disclosed herein. The electronic device includes a display, a wireless communication circuit, and electrical connector and a processor. The processor implements the method, including: detecting whether the electronic device is communicatively connected to an external display device through a wireless communication circuit or an electrical connector, when the electronic device is communicatively disconnected from the external display device, displaying, on the display, a first user interface for configuring a first screen timeout time associated with the display, when the electronic device is communicatively connected to the external display device, displaying a first screen on the display, and displaying a second screen on the external display device, the second screen different from the first screen, and displaying, on the external display device, a second user interface for configuring a second screen timeout time related to the external display device.

Electronic device and method for independently controlling a plurality of displays

An electronic device may include: a foldable housing; at least one sensor; a first display having a first size and a first pixel density; a second display having a second size and a second pixel density; a processor; and a memory. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to control the electronic device to: display at least one first surface image generated based on the window having the first size through the first display; change the size of the window to a third size based on information associated with the first display and the second display in response to detecting a first event through the at least one sensor based on the at least one first surface image being displayed; and display at least one second surface image generated based on the window, of which the size has been changed to the third size, through the second display.
