It may contain information corresponding to the state (State_2).

In step S330, the electronic device 100 may provide page information based on the first information 410 and the second information 420 to the user terminals 110 and 120. For example, in the first user terminal 110, the first function flag 411 may activate the first interface information (APP_1) and deactivate the second interface information (APP_2) according to the second information 420. . In other words, the electronic device 100 may provide information about the page implemented according to the first interface information (APP_1) to the first user terminal 110 using the first function flag 411. In addition, for example, in the second user terminal 120, the second function flag 412 activates the second interface information (APP_2) and deactivates the first interface information (APP_1) according to the second information 420. You can. In other words, the electronic device 100 may provide information about the page implemented according to the second interface information (APP_2) to the second user terminal 120 using the second function flag 412.
