Mobile terminal and controlling method thereof

A mobile terminal and controlling method thereof are disclosed, which facilitates a terminal to be used in further consideration of user's convenience. According to at least one of embodiments of the present invention, while a first function is being executed in a mobile terminal, if a second function different from the first function is executed, a first function icon having execution progress status information of the first function at a timing point of stopping the execution of the first function can be generated. If the first function is re-executed by selecting the first function icon later, it is advantageous in that the first function can be executed in a manner of being continuous with an execution progress status at the execution stop timing point.
