Abstract
An operation terminal includes a display unit, a storage unit, and a control unit. The display unit displays, for functions included in a home appliance, operation icons individually corresponding to the functions in association with control instruction information that instructs execution of the functions. The storage unit stores information on a relationship of how large or small a selection count is, which is information on a relationship of how large or small the number of selections of each of the operation icons is. The control unit determines display positions of the operation icons in the display unit on the basis of the information on the relationship of how large or small the selection count is, and causes the display unit to display the operation icons.
