Abstract
For solving a problem that it cannot measure illuminance level around user interface correctly, an illuminance detection method includes a first step of detecting an open operation of a flip-type electronic device having the user interface located at an inner side in a closed state, and a second step of measuring illuminance level in a vicinity of an area where the user interface is exposed in an opened state of the flip-type electronic device when the open operation is detected.
