1. An information processing apparatus comprising:
- a processor configured to;
receive a touch output from a user interface indicating that a first icon is selected;
acquire sensor information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus, wherein the sensor information corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus corresponds to a change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus;
control a display to initiate display of a second icon in a peripheral region on the display by moving the second icon onto the display and move at least the second icon from an original position in the peripheral region on the display toward the first icon based on the change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus while receiving the touch output from the user interface that the first icon is selected, wherein the second icon is not displayed before the sensor information is acquired; and
irrespective of the tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus, control the display to move the second icon to the original position in the peripheral region on the display in response to the second icon overlapping the first icon, which disappears following a release of a press and hold manipulation when the second icon and the first icon are overlapping, as a result of the movement of the second icon corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus.

22. A method performed by an information processing apparatus, the method comprising:
-
receiving a touch output from a user interface indicating that a first icon is selected; acquiring sensor information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus, wherein the sensor information corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus corresponds to a change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus; controlling a display to initiate display of a second icon in a peripheral region on the display by moving the second icon onto the display and move at least the second icon from an original position in the peripheral region on the display toward the first icon based on the change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus while receiving the touch output from the user interface that the first icon is selected, wherein the second icon is not displayed before the sensor information is acquired; and irrespective of the tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus, controlling the display to move the second icon to the original position in the peripheral region on the display in response to the second icon overlapping the first icon, which disappears following a release of a press and hold manipulation when the second icon and the first icon are overlapping, as a result of the movement of the second icon corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus.

23. A non-transitory computer-readable medium including computer-program instructions, which when executed by an information processing apparatus, cause the information processing apparatus to perform a process comprising:
-
receiving a touch output from a user interface indicating that a first icon is selected; acquiring sensor information corresponding to movement of the information processing apparatus, wherein the sensor information corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus corresponds to a change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus; controlling a display to initiate display of a second icon in a peripheral region on the display by moving the second icon onto the display and move at least the second icon from an original position in the peripheral region on the display toward the first icon based on the change in tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus while receiving the touch output from the user interface that the first icon is selected, wherein the second icon is not displayed before the sensor information is acquired; and irrespective of the tilt or slope of the information processing apparatus, controlling the display to move the second icon to the original position in the peripheral region on the display in response to the second icon overlapping the first icon, which disappears following a release of a press and hold manipulation when the second icon and the first icon are overlapping, as a result of the movement of the second icon corresponding to the movement of the information processing apparatus.
