Abstract
A work machine includes a body, a work implement attached to the body, and a controller that executes a transmission process of transmitting data to an external apparatus installed outside the body. The controller measures a speed of communication with the external apparatus, places a functional restriction on the transmission process when the speed of communication is lower than a predetermined required speed, reinforces the functional restriction on the transmission process as the speed of communication lowers, and reinforces the functional restriction on the transmission process when a state of the work machine is an operation state, as compared to a case where the state of the work machine is not the operation state.
