Foldable electronic device display method and foldable electronic device having a screen non-lock state

An electronic device display method, wherein an electronic device comprises a foldable body, an outer screen, and an inner screen, wherein the outer screen and the inner screen are respectively located on two opposite surfaces of the foldable body, and the method comprises:

• based on the foldable body being in a folded state, detecting whether a protective cover approaches the outer screen and reaches a preset position with respect to the outer screen, wherein a signal transmitting component is disposed on the protective cover, and a signal sensing component is disposed on the outer screen;
• based on determining that the protective cover reaches the preset position with respect to the outer screen, and based on a preset condition being met, determining whether the foldable body is switched to a non-folded state, wherein determining that the protective cover reaches the preset position with respect to the outer screen is based on the signal sensing component sensing a signal transmitted by the signal transmitting component when the protective cover approaches the outer screen;
• and
• based on the foldable body being switched to the non-folded state, controlling the electronic device to be in a screen non-locked state;
• wherein the preset condition comprises being within a preset time after the protective cover reaches the preset position.
