Abstract: An electronic device including a flexible display that is rollable or slidable and a method for operating the electronic device are provided. A first screen of a first function is displayed in a first area of a flexible display exposed to the outside. When a rolling movement or a sliding movement of the flexible display is identified, device state information including information indicating a power level of a battery of the electronic device is acquired. A first screen redrawing method is determined from among multiple screen redrawing methods by using the device state information. During the rolling movement or the sliding movement, a second screen corresponding to the first screen is displayed in a second area exposed to the outside by the rolling movement or the sliding movement of the flexible display, according to the first screen redrawing method.

Abstract: An electronic device includes: a first housing including a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface; a second housing including a third surface and a fourth surface opposite to the third surface; a first display on the first and third surfaces; a second display on the second surface; a first inertial sensor in the first housing; a second inertial sensor in the second housing; and at least one processor. The at least one processor is configured to: identify, using the first and second inertial sensors, that an angle between a first direction in which the first surface faces and a second direction in which the third surface faces is within a designated range, identify that first data, which is related to a posture of the electronic device and is identified using the second inertial sensor, is within a first range, and change a display mode of the second display.

Abstract: An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a first housing, a second housing foldably connected with the first housing, a flexible display disposed on the first housing and the second housing, at least one sensor, a memory, and at least one processor operatively connected to the flexible display, the at least one sensor, and the memory, wherein the at least one processor is configured, when instructions stored in the memory are executed, to control the flexible display to display a first execution screen of a first application, based on an angle between the first housing and the second housing, which is identified using the at least one sensor, falling within a predetermined range, identify whether the first application supports changing of an execution screen according to a change in angle, and based on the first application supporting the changing of the execution screen according to the change in the angle, control the flexible display to display a second execution screen of the first application associated with the predetermined range instead of the first execution screen.
