Device and controlling method thereof
An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a housing including a front surface and a rear surface, a display, a communication circuit, at least one processor, and a memory. The memory stores instructions which, when executed, cause the at least one processor to receive a signal from outside of the electronic device using the communication circuit, in response to receiving the signal, display a user interface on an elongated region that extends along at least one edge region of the display, and display at least one content corresponding to the signal, while displaying the user interface or after displaying the user interface.
1. A mobile device comprising:
a housing including:
a front surface, and
a rear surface facing a direction opposite to a direction that the front surface faces;
a display visible via the front surface, the display including:
a first edge region and a second edge region facing each other in a first direction, and
a third edge region and a fourth edge region facing each other in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the first edge region having a first length and the third edge region having a second length longer than the first length;
a communication circuit positioned inside the housing; and
at least one processor configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive a signal corresponding to a specified application from an external electronic device,
in response to receiving the signal, control the display to display a user interface (UI) including a first visual notification and a second visual notification, the first visual notification having a first brightness being displayed on a portion positioned on or adjacent to the first edge region, and thereafter, the second visual notification having a second brightness being expanded in length to at least one of the third edge region or the fourth edge region, the second visual notification being displayed on the first edge region and at least one of a part of the third edge region or a part of the fourth edge region, the second brightness being brighter than the first brightness, and
control the display to display at least one content corresponding to the signal and the UI concurrently, after the second visual notification is displayed.
2. The mobile device of claim 1 ,
wherein the specified application includes a message application, and
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive the signal corresponding to the message application.
3. The mobile device of claim 2 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the display to display, as part of the content, an icon related to the message application such that a display position of icon is not overlapped with the first edge region, the second edge region, the third edge region, and the fourth edge region.
4. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive the signal while the at least one processor is in a sleep state and the display outputs time information.
5. The mobile device of claim 1 ,
wherein the display includes a main region that is not overlapped with the first edge region, the second edge region, the third edge region, and the fourth edge region, and
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the display to output a black color on the main region, as part of the display of the UI.
6. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to adjust a display effect of the display from a blurred effect to a vivid effect.
7. The mobile device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to:
display the UI on a part of the first edge region, and
expand the UI along the first length of the first edge region while changing at least one of a brightness or a color of the UI.
8. The mobile device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to:
expand the UI along the first length of the first edge region without changing a thickness of the UI.
9. A mobile device comprising:
a housing including:
a front surface, and
a rear surface facing a direction opposite to a direction that the front surface faces;
a display visible via the front surface, the display including:
a first edge region and a second edge region facing each other in a first direction, and
a third edge region and a fourth edge region facing each other in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction, the first edge region having a first length and the third edge region having a second length longer than the first length;
a communication circuit positioned inside the housing; and
at least one processor configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive a signal corresponding to a specified application from an external electronic device,
in response to receiving the signal, control the display to display a user interface (UI) including a first visual notification and a second visual notification, the first visual notification having a first brightness being displayed on a first portion positioned on or adjacent to the first edge region, and thereafter, the second visual notification having a second brightness being displayed on a second portion positioned on or adjacent to the second edge region, the second brightness being brighter than the first brightness, and
control the display to display at least one content corresponding to the signal and the UI concurrently, after the second visual notification is displayed.
10. The mobile device of claim 9 ,
wherein the specified application includes a message application, and
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive the signal corresponding to the message application.
11. The mobile device of claim 10 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the display to display, as part of the content, an icon related to the message application such that a display position of icon is not overlapped with the first edge region, the second edge region, the third edge region, and the fourth edge region.
12. The mobile device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the communication circuit to receive the signal while the at least one processor is in sleep state and the display outputs time information.
13. The mobile device of claim 9 ,
wherein the display includes a main region that is not overlapped with the first edge region, the second edge region, the third edge region, and the fourth edge region, and
wherein the at least one processor is further configured to:
control the display to output a black color on the main region, as part of the display of the UI.
14. The mobile device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to adjust a display effect of the display from a blurred effect to a vivid effect.
15. The mobile device of claim 9 , wherein the at least one processor is further configured to control the display to:
display the UI on a part of the first edge region, and
expand the UI along the first length of the first edge region while changing at least one of a brightness or a color of the UI.
