An electronic device control method, the electronic device being a foldable electronic device, the method comprising: displaying a control screen of a first application, the control screen comprising control options of a floating shutter, the control options comprising: an off option, a smart option, and a smart option; when the standard option is selected for the first application by a user, the position of the floating shutter in a shooting screen can be changed based on a drag operation, and the standard option is effective when the folding screen device is in an unfolded state and a folded state; when the smart option is selected for the first application by the user, the position of the floating shutter in the shooting screen can be changed based on a change of a rotation angle of the electronic device, and the smart option is effective only when the folding screen is in an unfolded state, and is not effective when the folding screen device is in a folded state; displaying the shooting screen of the first application when the user selects the smart option, wherein the shooting screen comprises an image acquired in real time by a camera of the electronic device and a fixed shutter displayed at a first position, wherein a first side of the electronic device is at a first angle with respect to a direction of gravity; detecting a first operation performed by the user on the fixed shutter, and shooting, by the electronic device using the camera, a first image; receiving a second operation performed by the user on the electronic device, wherein, after the second operation, the first side of the electronic device is at a second angle with respect to the direction of gravity, the second angle being different from the first angle; displaying, by the electronic device in response to the second operation, a second shooting screen, wherein the second shooting screen comprises: an image acquired in real time by the camera of the electronic device and a floating shutter displayed at a second position, the second position being different from the first position; receiving a further operation performed by the user on the electronic device, wherein, after the further operation, the first side of the electronic device is at a third angle with respect to the direction of gravity, the third angle being different from the first angle and the second angle; moving, by the electronic device, the floating shutter from the second position to a new position; and after moving the floating shutter from the second position to the new position, detecting a third operation performed by the user on the floating shutter and shooting, by the electronic device using the camera, a second image. displaying a control screen of a first application, the control screen comprising control options of a floating shutter, the control options comprising: an off option, a smart option, and a smart option;
