Abstract
An input apparatus has a display unit for displaying an input object, an input unit for receiving a pressure input to the input object, a load detection unit for detecting a pressure load on the input unit, and a control unit for controlling to receive the pressure input if the pressure load detected by the load detection unit satisfies a load standard. The control unit controls such that a load standard for receiving the pressure input to the input object is different from a load standard for receiving a pressure input to another input object adjacent to the input object.
