Abstract

According to an embodiment, an electronic device includes a display module including a main display and a sub-display. The electronic device includes a memory configured to store computer-executable instructions. The electronic device includes a processor configured to execute the instructions by accessing the memory. The instructions, when executed, may cause the processor to, in response to a state of the electronic device executing an application being changed to a partially unfolded intermediate state, display a graphic object associated with switching a screen display of the application from the main display to the sub-display on a partial area of the main display. The instructions, when executed, may cause the processor to, in response to the graphic object being displayed in a specified position on the partial area before the state of the electronic device is changed to a folded state, display a screen of the application on the sub-display.
