Abstract
The invention relates to a system for skipping a plurality of pages displayed on a mobile device. The system includes a computer processor, an accelerometer module, a calculating module, and a page-skipping engine, which are all operatively connected. The accelerometer module executes on the computer processor and is configured to detect, using an accelerometer, a movement of the mobile device, wherein the movement comprises a magnitude; determine that the mobile device is oriented for skipping the plurality of pages; and determine that the movement triggers skipping the plurality of pages. The calculating module executes on the computer processor and is configured to calculate, based on the magnitude of the movement and a plurality of settings, the plurality of pages to skip. The page-skipping engine executes on the computer processor and is configured to display a target page on the mobile device.
