Abstract

A foldable electronic device includes a first display, a second display, a sensor that senses an angle between a first and second housing, and a processor. Based on the device being in a folded state and a screen being displayed through the second display, the processor detects unfolding of the electronic device, and based on the angle exceeding a second unfolding threshold angle, turns off the second display. The processor displays, on a first area of the first display, a screen displayed through the second display and on a second area of the first display, a menu for controlling the screen displayed through the first area. Based on the angle exceeding a third greater unfolding threshold angle, the processor displays, on the entire area of the first display, the screen displayed through the first area and the second area.
