Claim 12:
13. A method for driving an electronic device,
the electronic device comprising
a first housing comprising a first surface oriented in a first direction and a second surface oriented in a second direction opposite to the first direction,
a second housing comprising a third surface oriented in a third direction and a fourth surface oriented in a fourth direction opposite to the third direction,
a hinge coupled to the first housing and the second housing and to which at least one of the first housing and the second housing is rotatably connected,
a first display positioned as visible via the first surface and the third surface, and
a second display positioned as visible via the fourth surface,
the method comprising:
detecting that unfolding of the electronic device starts based on the electronic device being in a folded state and a screen being displayed on the second display;
based on an angle between the first housing and the second housing exceeding a first threshold angle during the unfolding of the electronic device: controlling the second display to an off-state, simultaneously displaying at least a part of the screen displayed on the second display on a first area of the first display positioned as visible via the first surface and a menu for controlling the screen displayed on the first area on a second area of the first display positioned as visible via the third surface; and
based on the angle between the first housing and the second housing exceeding a second threshold angle during the unfolding of the electronic device: simultaneously displaying at least a part of the screen displayed on the first area on at least a portion of the first area of the first display and at least a portion of the second area of the first display,
wherein the second threshold angle is greater than the first threshold angle.
