Abstract

Provided are a method and an apparatus for moving an object in a terminal having a touch screen. The method of moving an object in a terminal having a touch screen, includes detecting a first touch on the touch screen, determining whether a contact time of multi-touch exceeds a threshold time when the first touch is the multi-touch, changing an operation mode of the terminal from a standby mode to a moving mode when the contact time of the multi-touch exceeds the threshold time, and moving an object in response to motion of second touch when the operation mode of the terminal is the moving mode.
