Abstract

A method may be applied to an electronic device configured with a foldable display. The display includes a first area, a second area, and a third area, and when the electronic device is in a folded form, an included angle between the first area and the third area is less than a first preset angle, and two sides of a third area are the first area and the second area. The method includes: displaying a first interface in the first area, where the first interface includes one or more touchable areas; determining a first touch area between a user and the third area; mapping a touch function of a first touchable area in the first interface to the first touch area; detecting a first operation in the first touch area; and controlling the first touchable area in the first interface based on the first operation.
