Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a mobile terminal, and more particularly, to a mobile terminal in which a touch input is possible and a control method thereof. A mobile terminal includes a display unit, a grouping unit and a control unit. The display unit enables a touch input thereon, and allows a plurality of objects to be displayed thereon. When a touch input for at least one of a plurality of objects is sensed, the grouping unit detects attribute information of the sensed touch input, and groups the touched object into a group corresponding to the detected attribute information. The control unit displays, on the display unit, an indicator indicating that the touched object has been grouped into the group corresponding to the detected attribute information, together with the object.
