A method and an electronic device for gesture recognition are provided. The method is applied to an electronic device, which displays at least one object on a touch screen. Wherein the object has two states, one of which is a selected state and the other is an unselected state. The method includes: detecting a first touch point and a second touch point on the touch screen; when the first touch point and the second touch point are on the touch screen simultaneously, and the first touch point corresponds to at least one object, and the second touch point corresponds to at least another object, entering a multi mode. Wherein the at least one object corresponding to the first touch point and the at least one object corresponding to the second touch point are set to the selected state. It can simplify user operations by using this method.
