A method comprising:
- displaying a screen including at least one icon at a display;
- detecting a first touch gesture on the at least one icon while a second touch gesture on the at least one icon is being detected;
- performing a function related to the at least one icon in response to the detecting of the first touch gesture and the second touch gesture, wherein the first touch gesture is detected on a front side of the display by a first touch sensor and the second touch gesture is detected on a rear side of the display by a second touch sensor;
- and
- determining whether a first area where the first touch gesture is detected and a second area where the second touch gesture is detected are at a same location on opposite sides of the display with the at least one icon therein between;
- and
- changing a position of only the at least one icon based on the determining that the first area and the second area are at the same location and based on the first touch gesture and the second touch gesture moving together in the same direction.
