US Patent 11402993 Electronic device, control method, and recording medium

An electronic device includes a first sensor for detecting a gesture that does not come into contact with the electronic device, a second sensor for detecting a touch that comes into contact with the electronic device, and a controller. The controller increases the size of an icon, displayed on a display, when a gesture is detected by the first sensor. The controller increases the size of the icon in accordance with the distance to the position where the gesture detected by the first sensor is performed. The controller decreases the size of the icon when a touch is detected by the second sensor, regardless of the distance to the position where the gesture detected by the first sensor is performed.
