Electronic device for executing applications by using different pieces of camera information according to capturing environment and method for controlling same

An electronic device comprising:

• a first camera;
• a second camera;
• at least one processor, and
• memory storing instructions,
• wherein the instructions, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the electronic device to:
• identify, while an application using a first specification of the first camera is executed, that a capturing environment of the electronic device is changed from a first environment to a second environment,
• compare the first specification of the first camera and a second specification of the second camera, and
• based on a result of the comparison, execute the application by providing information on the second specification of the second camera from the memory to the application.

A non-transitory storage medium storing one or more programs, the one or more programs comprising computer-executable instructions, when executed by at least one processor of an electronic device, cause the electronic device to:

• obtain a request for execution of an application;
• based on obtaining the request for the execution, obtain a query requesting provision of information on a first specification of a first camera of the electronic device;
• based on obtaining the query, identify whether the first camera and a second camera of the electronic device have specifications that are different from each other;
• based on a result of the identifying whether the first camera and the second camera have specifications that are different from each other, identify a capturing environment related to the electronic device;
• based on a result of the identification of the capturing environment, obtain, from memory of the electronic device, the information on the first specification of the first camera or information on a second specification of the second camera, the obtained information being related to the execution of the application;
• and
• execute the application by providing the obtained information on the first specification or the obtained information on the second specification to the application.
