An electronic device includes a touch screen display, an input/output interface, a communication circuit, a memory, and a processor, and the processor modifies screen configuration information associated with at least a part of a resolution, a density, and an orientation of a screen output by the electronic device if the electronic device is connected to the external display device through the input/output interface, determines whether a target application to be displayed on the external display device supports resizing of a window that displays an execution screen of the target application, configures a first type of window which is resizable if the target application supports the resizing, configures a second type of window with a fixed size if the target application does not support the resizing, and displays the first type of window or the second type of window on the external display device.

Electronic device and method for managing window

An electronic device is configured to support a multitasking environment, the electronic device comprises a communication circuit configured to communicate with at least one external device; a microphone configured to receive voice input; a memory storing a plurality of application programs; a display configured to output a plurality of virtual windows as the plurality of application programs are executed and at least one processor electrically connected with the communication circuit, the microphone, the memory, and the display, wherein the processor is configured to execute the plurality of application programs, determine whether at least one condition is satisfied for controlling a background state of a first window, when a first voice input is generated for controlling a function of a first application program in the first window that is in the background state, and maintain the first window in the background state and a second window, which is associated with a second application program, to be in a foreground state, while processing the first user input, when the at least one condition is satisfied.
