Abstract

A communication terminal for displaying a predetermined-area image includes circuitry. The circuitry receives first predetermined-area information indicating a first predetermined area, the first predetermined-area information being transmitted from another communication terminal displaying a first predetermined-area image. The circuitry calculates a direction of the first predetermined area with respect to a second predetermined area in a whole image, based on the first predetermined-area information and second predetermined-area information. The second predetermined area is an area of a second predetermined-area image being displayed by the communication terminal. The circuitry controls a display to display the second predetermined-area image including display direction information indicating the calculated direction. The circuitry accepts designation of the display direction information. The circuitry controls the display to display the first predetermined-area image based on the first predetermined-area information, which is a source of calculation of the display direction information for which the designation is accepted.
