Abstract
An electronic device includes a first housing including a first face, and a second face opposite the first face; a second housing including a third face, and a fourth face opposite the third face; a hinge connecting the first housing and the second house, wherein the second housing folds about the hinge to face the first housing; a flexible display extending from the first face to the third face; a sensor circuit configured to sense an angle formed by the first housing and the second housing folding at the hinge; and a processor operatively connected to the flexible display and the sensor circuit. The processor is configured to detect a physical state of the first housing and the second housing based on the sensor circuit, and re-execute a currently executed application, when the detected physical state changes.
