1. An electronic device, comprising:
a sensor configured to measure a temperature of the electronic device;
a flexible display, a size of visible area of which is changeable;
memory storing executable instructions; and
at least one processor, comprising processing circuitry, configured to access the memory and execute the instructions,
wherein at least one processor, individually and/or collectively, is configured to:
identify an input for changing a size of the visible area of the flexible display;
identify a temperature of the electronic device using the sensor based on identifying the input;
based on the identified temperature being included in a first temperature range, change the size of the visible area of the flexible display according to a first specified condition; and
based on the identified temperature being included in a second temperature range different from the first temperature range, change the size of the visible area of the flexible display according to a second specified condition,
wherein the first specified condition includes a first delay time and the second specified condition includes a second delay time.
