Abstract: A method for disabling a touch point and an electronic device adapted for this method are disclosed. The electronic device includes a touch screen and has a register table. The method includes periodically receiving touch information on the touch screen; generating touch point data corresponding to the touch information; updating the register table according to the touch point data; determining whether there exists a touch point in the register table that remains unmoved for more than a predetermined time period; and if yes, ignoring the touch point. Therefore, the method can exclude the effect to an application program due to unexpected touch behavior, so that the application program can keep operating normally.
