In a case where a trigger to start the service is acquired from the operation inputter, the controller displays on the display, a confirmation screen with which whether the application is installed in the terminal apparatus is confirmed, when executing the service. In a case where a trigger to start the service is acquired from the acquirer, the controller executes the service without displaying the confirmation screen on the display.
