Abstract
In a method for removing folders from a touch screen of an electronic device, a preset triggering operation for activating the folders is detected when performed on the touch screen. An acceleration of the electronic device is obtained in real time by the gravity sensor when the preset triggering operation is detected. The electronic device is determined that whether the electronic device is being shaken based on the obtained acceleration; and the folders are removed from the touch screen, the application icons of the folders are displayed on a desktop of the electronic device when the electronic device is being shaken.
