Abstract

Embodiments of this application provide an electronic device display method and an electronic device. The electronic device includes a foldable body, an outer screen, and an inner screen, and the method includes: when the foldable body is in a folded state, detecting whether a protective cover approaches the outer screen and reaches a preset position with respect to the outer screen; if the protective cover reaches the preset position with respect to the outer screen, when the preset condition is met, determining whether the foldable body is switched to a non-folded state; and if the foldable body is switched to the non-folded state, controlling the electronic device to be in a screen non-locked state. That the preset condition is met includes at least being within a preset time after the protective cover reaches the preset position.
