Abstract
A communication apparatus capable of executing a wireless communication includes an identification unit, a display unit, a notification unit, and a connection unit. The identification unit identifies a communication partner of the wireless communication. The display unit displays, if an external apparatus which is the communication partner of the wireless communication is identified by the identification unit, a confirmation screen for allowing a user to confirm whether to execute the wireless communication with the external apparatus. The notification unit notifies, if the confirmation screen is displayed by the display unit, the external apparatus that the user is confirming whether to execute the wireless communication. The connection unit executes, if the user issues an instruction via the confirmation screen to execute the wireless communication with the external apparatus, connection processing for executing the wireless communication with the external apparatus.
