Abstract
An information processing apparatus capable of notifying a user of a state of data transmission via short-range wireless communication. An NFC tag controller of an MFP as an information processing apparatus holds communication setting information for wireless LAN communication, and transmits the communication setting information to a mobile terminal as an external apparatus, via NFC communication by dividing the information. An interrupt signal generated by the NFC tag controller for notifying completion of transmission of a divided information item to the mobile terminal is detected, and when the number of times of detection of the interrupt signal reaches a predetermined number of times, the user is notified that the transmission of the communication setting information is completed.
