    Abstract: An electronic device includes a foldable housing including a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface, a first display arranged on the first surface and configured to be flexible, a second display arranged in at least a partial area of the second surface, and a processor arranged inside the foldable housing. The processor detects that the foldable housing is unfolded to a first angle from a fully folded state, displays a first GUI associated with a first application on at least a partial area of the display, detects that the foldable housing is unfolded to a second angle greater than the first angle, displays a second GUI associated with a second application, and executes the second application when the foldable housing is folded back into the fully folded state.

    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an electronic device. The electronic device may include: a display; a communication module comprising communication circuitry; a processor; and a memory configured to store information on an application executed by the processor and information on a screen output through the display, wherein the processor is configured to receive an input for execution of a first application related to provision of a communication service, to determine information related to an other party of the communication service based on the received input, to determine whether the information related to the other party is included on a screen for a second application output through the display if the input is received, and to transmit the information related to the other party included on the screen for the second application to the other party through the communication module, if the information related to the other party is included on the screen for the second application.
