Abstract
An electronic device includes a flexible display, a sensor, a memory, and a processor. The memory stores instructions that cause the processor to receive a first user input through a display, display at least one graphic user interface (GUI) on the display in response to the first user input, receive a second user input with respect to the at least one GUI, determine a multi-window layout on the basis of the second user input, receive a third user input with respect to the at least one GUI, determine, on the basis of the third user input, at least one application to be operated on the multi-window layout, detect a shape change of the electronic device due to unfolding or sliding by using the sensor, and display the multi-window layout and the at least one application on the display based on the display being extended.
