Abstract

A portable terminal for controlling an apparatus includes: a display with a touchscreen; a vibrator that is configured to perform a vibration action of vibrating at least an operation surface of the touchscreen; and a hardware processor that determines whether or not the terminal is in a placed state of being placed on an object and causes the vibrator to perform the vibration action in response to a touch operation on the operation surface. When the terminal is in the placed state, the hardware processor causes the vibrator to perform the vibration action at first vibration intensity. When the terminal is not in the placed state, the hardware processor causes the vibrator to perform the vibration action at second vibration intensity that is lower than the first vibration intensity.
