Abstract

Provided is an electronic device including: a battery, a display, at least one processor, and a memory, the memory storing instructions that, when executed, cause the at least one processor to: identify a charging scheme for the battery and a state of the display upon detection of a charging start event, display a graphic object on the display using a first display scheme indicating a first charging scheme based on the state of the display based on the charging scheme being the first charging scheme, and display the graphic object on the display using a second display scheme indicating a second charging scheme based on the state of the display based on the charging scheme being a second charging scheme.

Claims (22)

1. An electronic device comprising:

a touchscreen display; and

at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

display, on the touchscreen display, a first screen in a first brightness,

identify a connection of a connector for charging a battery to the electronic device while the first screen is displayed in the first brightness,

based on the identification and the first screen being a home screen, display, on the touchscreen display, the home screen in a second brightness and first visual information on a charging status with respect to the battery in a third brightness greater than the second brightness, wherein the home screen in the second brightness and the first visual information in the third brightness are displayed together on the touchscreen display, and

based on the identification and the first screen being a locked screen, display, on the touchscreen display, second visual information on the charging status with respect to the battery and additional information, including information on the charging status displayed via a text, with respect to the battery, wherein the locked screen, the second visual information and the additional information are displayed together on the touchscreen display.

2. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the first brightness is greater than the second brightness.

3. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured so that the additional information is not displayed on the home screen in the second brightness when the first screen is the home screen.

4. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the charging status includes a charging quantity with respect to the battery.

5. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured so that the home screen in the second brightness is displayed in a first layer, and wherein the first visual information is a second layer overlapping the first layer.

6. The electronic device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one processor is configured so that the locked screen, overlapped with the second visual information and the additional information, is displayed in a fourth brightness greater than a brightness of a off state.

7. An electronic device comprising:

a touchscreen display, and

at least one processor, wherein the at least one processor is configured to:

display, in a first layer, a first screen in a first brightness,

identify a connection of a connector for charging a battery to the electronic device while the first screen is displayed in the first brightness,

based on the identification and the first screen being a home screen, display, in the first layer, the home screen in a second brightness, and display, in a second layer overlapping the first layer, first visual information on a charging status with respect to the battery in a third brightness greater than the second brightness, and

based on the identification and the first screen being a locked screen, display, in the second layer, second visual information on the charging status with respect to the battery and additional information, including information on the charging status displayed via a text, with respect to the battery, wherein the locked screen, the second visual information and the additional information are displayed together on the touchscreen display.

8. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the first brightness is greater than the second brightness.

9. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is configured so that the additional information is not displayed on the home screen in the second brightness when the first screen is the home screen.

10. The electronic device of claim 7 , wherein the at least one processor is configured so that the locked screen, overlapped with the second visual information and the additional information, is displayed in a fourth brightness greater than a brightness of an off state.
