Abstract

According to various embodiments, an electronic device may comprise a bended display, a sensor unit, and a processor. The bended display includes a front display region, a side display region, and a back display region, which respectively correspond to a front face, a side face, and a back face of the electronic device. The sensor unit detects a motion of the electronic device. If an event occurs while content is displayed on the front display region, the processor controls the bended display to display a graphic object corresponding to the event on the front display region, and also controls the bended display to display a first screen corresponding to the graphic object on the back display region, based on the detected motion of the electronic device.
