cause the display to display the notification UI in at least a portion of the first area based at least in part on receiving the first input and when the setting related to displaying a notification UI of the first content corresponds to a second setting of the setting.

2. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein a speed for displaying the notification UI in the second area changes based at least in part on a moving speed of the first input.

3. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the notification UI comprises at least an icon for controlling an operation of the mobile terminal or notification information.

4. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the notification UI is displayed in the second area of the display according to a notification UI type identified based at least in part on a size of the second area.

5. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the notification UI type comprises at least a first type and a second type,

wherein the notification UI is displayed in the second area according to the first type based at least in part on a size of the second area being greater than a predetermined size,

wherein the notification UI is displayed in the second area according to the second type based at least in part on the size of the second area being less than the predetermined size, and

wherein the notification UI displayed in the second area according to the first type displays a greater number of icons than the notification UI displayed in the second area according to the second type.

6. The mobile terminal of claim 4 , wherein the processor is further configured to change a display scheme of the notification UI in response to a size change of the second area.

7. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the setting related to displaying the notification UI is preset for each type of content,

wherein a type of the content comprises at least one of visual content, auditory content, or general content other than the visual content and the auditory content, and

the processor is further configured to cause the display to display the notification UI based on a type of the first content.

8. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to cause the display to display predetermined guide information in at least a portion of the first area or the second area when a setting related to displaying the notification UI of second content displayed in the second area corresponds to the first setting, wherein the second content corresponds to a second application.

9. The mobile terminal of claim 8 , wherein the predetermined guide information comprises at least one of a specific text, a specific sound, a vibration of a specific pattern, or a specific image.

10. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

cause the display to display the notification UI over at least a portion of the first content when a setting related to displaying a notification UI of second content displayed in the second area corresponds to the first setting; and

cause the display to display the notification UI in the second area when the setting related to displaying the notification UI of second content displayed in the second area corresponds to a second setting that displays the notification UI by overlapping.

11. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein causing the display to display the notification UI in the second area comprises:

when a setting related to displaying the notification UI of second content displayed in the second area corresponds to the first setting, causing the display to display at least one of the first content or the second content in the second area with a reduced size and cause the display to display the notification UI in a third area defined according to at least one of the first content or the second content being displayed with the reduced size, and

causing the display to display the notification UI in the second area of the display when the setting related to displaying the notification UI of the second content displayed in the second area corresponds to a second setting that displays the notification UI in the first area.

12. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein when second content and third content are displayed in the second area, the processor is further configured to cause the display to display the notification UI on a portion of content corresponding to the second content or the third content when a setting related to displaying a notification UI corresponds to the second content and a setting related to displaying a notification UI corresponds to the third content.

13. The mobile terminal of claim 1 , wherein when second content and third content are displayed in the second area, the processor is further configured to cause the display to display the notification UI to overlap at least a portion of content that is one of the second content or the third content according to priority information determined based at least in part on positions in which the second content and the third content are displayed or types of the second content and the third content.

14. A method of a mobile terminal, the method comprising:

receiving a first input related to displaying a notification user interface (UI) on a first area of a display, wherein first content corresponding to a first application is displayed in the first area;

identifying the first content corresponding to the first application displayed in the first area based on the reception of the first input to determine displaying the notification UI in a second area or at least a portion of the first area of the display based on a setting related to a notification UI display of the identified first content, wherein the second area is different from the first area;

displaying the notification UI in the second area of a display based at least in part on the received first input and when the setting related to displaying a notification UI of the first content corresponds to a first setting of the setting that prevents the notification UI from being displayed by overlapping the first content in the first area; and

displaying to display the notification UI in at least a portion of the first area based at least in part on receiving the first input and when the setting related to displaying a notification UI of the first content corresponds to a second setting of the setting.

15. The method of claim 14 , wherein the notification UI is displayed in the second area of the display according to a notification UI type identified based at least in part on a size of the second area.

16. The method of claim 15 , further comprising changing a display scheme of the notification UI in response to a size change of the second area.

17. The method of claim 14 , wherein the setting related to displaying the notification UI is preset for each type of content,

wherein a type of the content comprises at least one of visual content, auditory content, or general content other than the visual content and the auditory content, and

wherein displaying of the notification UI based on a type of the first content.

18. The method of claim 14 , wherein the displaying of the notification UI in the second area comprises:

when the setting related to displaying the notification UI of second content displayed in the second area corresponds to the first setting, displaying at least one of the first content or the second content displayed in the second area with a reduced size and displaying the notification UI in a third area defined in accordance with at least one of the first content or the second content being displayed with the reduced size; and

displaying the notification UI in the second area of the display when the setting related to displaying the notification UI of the second content displayed in the second area corresponds to a second setting that displays the notification UI in the first area, wherein the second content corresponds to a second application.
