A wearable device grouping and providing a plurality of application execution screens and a method for controlling the same are provided. The wearable device includes a display module and at least one processor configured to control the display module to allow an execution screen of a first application to be shown as a virtual object according to a first type, detect a first user input for executing a second application, after detecting the first user input, determine whether a second user input for requesting to allow an execution screen of the second application to be included and shown in a same group as the execution screen of the first application is detected, and allow the execution screen of the second application to be shown independently from or while forming one group with the execution screen of the first application, based on a result of the determination.

Wearable device grouping and providing a plurality of application execution screens and method for controlling the same

A wearable electronic device may include a display, a camera, at least one first sensor, and at least one processor operatively coupled to the display, the camera, and the at least one first sensor. The at least one processor may be configured to display an execution screen of an application on the display, based on receiving a first user input for selecting a content from among a plurality of contents included in the execution screen of the application through the camera, display a first virtual object related to the selected content on the display, based on receiving a second user input for mapping the first virtual object to an object included in a real space through the camera, identify a type of the object in the real space through the at least one first sensor, in response to the type of the object in the real space being related to the selected content or the first virtual object, display on the display a second virtual object related to the selected content based on at least one of a shape, a position, or a size of the object in the real space, and in response to the type of the object in the real space being not related to the selected content or the first virtual object, display on the display a third virtual object in the form of a three-dimensional (3D) object related to the selected content.

Wearable electronic device for displaying virtual object on a surface of a real object and method of controlling the same

A wearable electronic device may include a display, a camera, and a processor, wherein the processor is configured to, based on execution of a first application, control the display to display at least one first object corresponding to at least one first function of the first application at a position corresponding to at least one finger of a user wearing the wearable electronic device, based on identifying that a prespecified finger is in contact with a specific finger among the at least one finger by using the camera while the first application is executed, execute a first specific function corresponding to the specific finger among the at least one first function, based on execution of a second application, control the display to display at least one second object corresponding to at least one second function of the second application at the position corresponding to the at least one finger, and based on identifying that the prespecified finger is in contact with the specific finger by using the camera while the second application is executed, execute a second specific function corresponding to the specific finger among the at least one second function.
