A head-mounted display device may initiate display of a user interface on a display of the head-mounted display device. A head-mounted display device may compute an angular distance between a previous head orientation and a current head orientation based on head movement data. A head-mounted display device may apply a gain value to the angular distance to move a position indicator to an updated position within a boundary of the user interface, the user interface configured to remain fixed to a location in the display regardless of head movements.
