screen of the first application is displayed through the display while the communication service is performed, if the information related to the other party is included in the screen for the second application, causes the display to display the information related to the other party on the screen of the first application after the communication service is terminated, if the execution screen of the first application is not displayed through the display while the communication service is performed, and transmit the information related to the other party, to the other party, through the communication module after the communication service is terminated. ### Claim 2 (depends on 1) The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the first application related to the communication service comprises an application related to at least one of: a voice call, a video call, a voice message, a text message, a messenger, and/or an e-mail. ### Claim 3 (depends on 1) The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the input includes a voice input, and wherein the processor is configured to receive the voice input for execution of the first application while a function for receiving the voice input is activated. ### Claim 4 (depends on 1) The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to transmit at least one of: the information included on the screen for the second application to the other party through the communication module based on a set criterion, if the information related to the other party is not included on the screen for the second application. ### Claim 5 (depends on 4) The electronic device of claim 4, wherein the set criterion comprises a criterion based on at least one of: date information, time information, and/or positional information. ### Claim 6 (depends on 1) The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to determine whether another information related to the information related to the other party is stored in the memory. ### Claim 7 (depends on 1) The electronic device of claim 1, wherein the processor is configured to: receive information on an application executed by at least one external electronic device and information on a screen output through a display of the at least one external electronic device from at least one external electronic device communicating with the electronic device through the communication module, and determine the screen for the second application output when the input is received from among the screen output through the display and the screen output through the display of the at least one external electronic device. ### Claim 8 (depends on 7) The electronic device of claim 7, wherein the processor is configured to: display the information related to the other party on the screen output while a function related to the first application is performed, if the screen is output through the display while the function related to the communication service is performed, and transmit the information related to the other party to the at least one external electronic device through the communication module, if the screen is not output through the display while the function related to the communication service is performed. ### Claim 9 (depends on 7) The electronic device of claim 7, wherein the processor is configured to: receive an input for the execution of the first application from the at least one external electronic device through the communication module, and transmit an instruction to perform the function related to the first application in the at least one external electronic device to the at least one external electronic device through the communication module. ### Claim 10 (depends on 7) The method of claim 7, further comprising: displaying the information related to the other party on the screen output while a function related to the first application is performed, if the screen is output through the display while the function related to the communication service is performed, and transmitting the information related to the other party to the at least one external electronic device through the communication circuitry, if the screen is not output through the display while the function related to the communication service is performed. ### Claim 11 A method for sharing information of an electronic device, the method comprising: receiving an input for execution of a first application related to a communication service, while a screen for a second application is displayed on the display, determining information related to an other party of the communication service based on the received input, determining whether the information related to the other party is included on the screen for the second application output through a display of the electronic device when the input is received, if the information related to the other party included on the screen for the second application is included in the screen for the second application, displaying the information related to the other party on a screen of the first application, if the execution screen of the first application is displayed through the display while the communication service is performed, if the information related to the other party is included in the screen for the second application, displaying the information related to the other party on the screen of the first application after the communication service is terminated, if the execution screen of the first application is not displayed through the display while the
