An in-vehicle alert apparatus includes an object information acquiring unit, a vehicle status information acquiring unit, a display unit, and an electronic control unit. The electronic control unit determines whether or not an alert target exists outside a field of view of a driver, and displays, as an alert screen, a single display screen when one alert target is selected, a whole display screen when two alert targets are selected and all of the two alert targets are determined to exist within the field of view of the driver, and an individual display screen when two alert targets are selected and an alert target having the highest alert degree is determined to exist outside the field of view of the driver.
