An information processing apparatus includes: a wireless communication module which performs a wireless communication with a counterpart apparatus; a memory which stores a first application and a plurality of second applications, the first application for performing data communication with the counterpart apparatus through the wireless communication, and the second applications placed in a higher level than the first application; a controller which activates one of the second applications for the counterpart apparatus; and an indicator which makes an indication according to the wireless communication. The controller determines whether the activated one of the second applications is accessible the indicator. The controller controls the indicator by executing the activated second application when the controller determines that the second application is accessible the indicator, and controls the indicator by executing the first application when the controller determines that the second application is not accessible the indicator.
