Original Abstract Submitted

An electronic device is provided. The electronic device includes a display capable of changing the size of a display screen, memory which stores instructions executable by a computer, and a processor which accesses the memory and executes the instructions. The processor arranges at least one piece of first content in a first arrangement on the display screen of a first screen size, maintain the arrangement of the at least one piece of first content in the first arrangement on the display screen of a second screen size, on the basis of a size change of the display screen from the first screen size to the second screen size, and arrange at least one piece of second content to be outputted on the display screen of the second screen size in a second arrangement corresponding to the screen size, on the basis of detection of a first input which causes movement of an application screen on the display screen of the second screen size.
