An in-vehicle apparatus configured to enable effective software downloading by distributing download tasks among multiple portable devices. An in-vehicle apparatus includes a communicator that communicates with the portable devices, and a processor that acquires speed datasets from the portable devices, each indicating a communication speed between a respective portable device and a server. Based on the speed datasets, the processor assigns data files to the portable devices and requests the portable devices to download the respectively assigned data files from the server. The in-vehicle apparatus receives the downloaded data files from the portable devices and updates its software accordingly.
