1. A context awareness-based screen scroll method, the method comprising:
- determining a tilt direction of a terminal;
if the tilt direction corresponds to a forward direction, scrolling up a screen of the terminal;
if the tilt direction corresponds to a backward direction opposite of the forward direction, scrolling down the screen of the terminal;
determining if ambient illuminance of the terminal is greater than or equal to a threshold and determining if the terminal is stationary; and
if the terminal is stationary and if the ambient illuminance is greater than or equal to the threshold, performing a screen scroll mode,wherein a scroll speed increases as a tilt angle of the terminal increases.
