A method of scrolling a screen in a display apparatus includes initiating a screen-scroll according to a speed of a currently generated flick input when the flick input is generated, comparing a tilt of an axis of a corresponding apparatus with an initial location at a time of generation of the flick input to determine whether a change amount of a change is within a reference value, maintaining a current screen-scroll speed if the change amount deviates from the reference value, and stopping a screen-scroll operation when a scroll stop condition is met.
