An information processing apparatus includes a wireless interface configured to perform communication with an image forming apparatus, and at least one controller configured to function as a unit configured to acquire device information of the image forming apparatus from the image forming apparatus through the wireless interface, and a unit configured to selectively accept one of a first instruction to transmit the acquired device information to an external destination and a second instruction not to transmit the acquired device information to the external destination. The controller also functions as a unit configured to transmit, in a state where the first instruction has been accepted, the acquired device information to the external destination, and hold, in a state where the second instruction has been accepted, the acquired device information without transmitting the acquired device information to the external destination.
