Claims20
An electronic device comprising:
- a communication interface;
- a touch screen;
- and
- at least one processor configured to:
- execute a message application,
- display an execution screen of the message application and a keyboard through the touch screen while the message application is executed,
- based on a first user input, select at least one first external electronic device among one or more first external electronic devices which are capable of being connected to the electronic device,
- in response to selecting the at least one first external device, transmit data associated with the execution screen to the at least one first external device through the communication interface such that the at least one first external device, based on the data associated with the execution screen, displays the execution screen through a display of the at least one first external device;
- and
- after selecting the at least one first external device, display the keyboard through the touch screen.
A method for displaying a screen in an electronic device, the method comprising:
- executing a message application,
- displaying an execution screen of the message application and a keyboard through a touch screen of the electronic device while the message application is executed,
- based on a first user input, selecting at least one first external electronic device among one or more first external electronic devices which are capable of being connected to the electronic device,
- in response to selecting the at least one first external device, transmitting data associated with the execution screen to the at least one first external device through a communication interface of the electronic device such that the at least one first external device, based on the data associated with the execution screen, displays the execution screen through a display of the at least one first external device;
- and
- after selecting the at least one first external device, displaying the keyboard through the touch screen.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that are executable by at least one processor of an electronic device to cause the at least one processor to:
- execute a message application,
- display an execution screen of the message application and a keyboard through a touch screen of the electronic device while the message application is executed,
- based on a first user input, select at least one first external electronic device among one or more first external electronic devices which are capable of being connected to the electronic device,
- in response to selecting the at least one first external device, transmit data associated with the execution screen to the at least one first external device through a communication interface of the electronic device such that the at least one first external device, based on the data associated with the execution screen, displays the execution screen through a display of the at least one first external device;
- and
- after selecting the at least one first external device, display the keyboard through the touch screen.
