Abstract
An information processing apparatus divides a screen of a display unit into a first display area for displaying a list of application items for a user to select an executable application and a second display area for displaying information regarding a state of the screen or a state of the information processing apparatus, and decides a display position of the first display area when the occurrence of an anomaly is detected. The apparatus displays the list of application items in the decided first display area whose display position is decided, and displays information regarding the anomaly in the second display area. The decided display position of the first display area is a position in which the size of the first display area is smaller than in the case in which an anomaly is not detected.
