    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 according to various embodiments may include: a housing, a flexible display having at least a partial area configured to be drawn out from the housing so that a size of a visible area of the flexible display can be changed, a sensor configured to measure a length of the flexible display, a memory, a processor operatively connected to the memory, the sensor, and the flexible display. The processor may be configured to control the electronic device to: display a first content including at least one image in a first area including a partial area of the flexible display in response to an input, measure a length of the flexible display drawn out from the housing using the sensor, based on the length of the flexible display measured using the sensor being a specified first length, determine that the electronic device is in a non-expanded state, and based on the length of the flexible display measured using the sensor being a second length longer than the first length, determine that the electronic device is in an expanded state. In addition, the processor may be configured to control the electronic device to: based on the electronic device being in an expanded state, display the first content in the first area, and display a user interface corresponding to at least one application and/or second content obtained by converting the first content into a form corresponding to a function provided by the at least one application in a second area including a partial area of the flexible display, drawn out from the housing to be visible, and transmit, in response to an input, data corresponding to the first content to a server connected to the at least one application.

    Abstract: Disclosed are an electronic device including a flexible display, and an operation method thereof. The electronic device may include a battery for power supply, a display unit, and at least one processor. The display unit may include at least one flexible display. As a state of the electronic device switches from a first state to a second state, a screen display area among a display area of the display unit may change from a first area to a second area. In the first state, a first indicator relating to a battery residual capacity identified according to the size of the first area may be displayed through the first area. In the second state, a second indicator relating to a battery residual capacity identified according to the size of the second area may be displayed through the second area.
