Information of a remote app installed in the remote device is transmitted from the remote device to the local device. The information of the remote app received from the remote device is displayed together with information on a local app installed in the local device on a screen of a user interface (UI) via a display device of the local device. When a user executes the remote app, using the information of the remote app displayed in the display device of the local device, the remote app is executed on the remote device, and an execution screen of the remote app transmitted from the remote device to the local device is simultaneously displayed via the display device of the local device. ## Claims ### Claim 1 A method for executing a remote application (app) in a local device installed in a vehicle, the method comprising: connecting a remote device to the local device to be communicable with each other; transmitting information of a remote app installed in the remote device from the remote device to the local device; displaying simultaneously the information of the remote app received from the remote device together with information of at least one local app installed in the local device on a screen of a user interface (UI) via a display device of the local device; and when a user executes the remote app using the information of the remote app displayed via the display device of the local device, executing the remote app on the remote device and simultaneously displaying an execution screen of the remote app currently being executed transmitted from the remote device to the local device together with at least one execution screen of at least one local app currently being executed on the screen via the display device of the local device, wherein the simultaneous displaying of the execution screen of the remote app currently being executed together with the at least one execution screen of the at least one local app currently being executed comprises displaying the execution screen of the remote app on an area of the screen separate from an area of the screen on which the at least one execution screen of the at least one local app is displayed. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein when the local app and the remote app are currently being executed in a multitasking state, the local device allows for information of the local app and the remote app to be provided and displayed as a separate screen of a multitasking switching UI on the screen of the UI, and when the user selects any one of the apps currently being executed, which are displayed on the screen of the multitasking switching UI, the local device allows for an execution screen of the selected app to be magnified and displayed via the display device of the local device. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the information of the remote app or the information of the local app is an execution icon for executing a corresponding app. ### Claim 4 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, wherein the local device processes an execution icon of the remote app and displays the processed execution icon via the display device of the local device enabling the user to identify the execution icon of the remote app received from the remote device from that of the local app. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The method of claim 4, wherein the local device displays the execution icon of the remote app received from the remote device via the display device by changing the shape or color of the execution icon of the remote app or by forming a frame around the execution icon of the remote app. ### Claim 6 (depends on 3) The method of claim 3, wherein the local device displays the execution icon of the remote app in a predetermined region on the screen of the UI of the local device enabling the user to identify the execution icon of the remote app received from the remote device from that of the local app. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The method of claim 1, wherein the local device is a vehicle terminal mounted in the vehicle, and the remote device is a smart device in the vehicle. ### Claim 8 A system for executing a remote application (app) in a local device, the system comprising: a local device installed in a vehicle having at least one local app installed thereon; and a remote device having a remote app installed thereon, the remote device being connected to the local device such that the remote device and the local device are communicable with each other, wherein the remote device transmits information of the remote app to the local device, the local device displays simultaneously the information of the remote app received from the remote device together with information of the at least one local app on a screen of a user interface (UI) via a display device of the local device, when a user executes the remote app using the information of the remote app displayed via the display device of the local device, the remote device executes the remote app and, at the same time, the local device simultaneously displays an execution screen of the remote app currently being executed transmitted from the remote device to the local device together with at least one execution screen of at least one local app currently being executed on the screen via the display device of the local device, and the local device displays the execution screen of the remote app on an area of the screen separate from an area of the screen on which the at least one execution screen of the at least one local app is displayed.
