Abstract
This electronic device may comprise: a flexible display; a first rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a first direction; a second rolling actuator configured to extend the flexible display in a second direction opposite to the first direction; and at least one processor. The at least one processor may be configured to: determine the mounting state of the electronic device; acquire information about the position of a peripheral device, which is linked with the electronic device, based on the mounting state satisfying a designated condition; set the extension direction of the flexible display on the basis of the information about the position of the peripheral device; and control the first rolling actuator and/or the second rolling actuator to extend the flexible display in the first direction and/or the second direction on the basis of the set extension direction.
