Abstract

An information communication apparatus includes a processor and a memory coupled to or integrated with the processor and is configured to designate a communication destination by selecting a desired recipient from plural recipients displayed in a list form in an operation screen, in which the processor displays, for the recipients, recipient names, which are names of the recipients, displays, in front of each of the recipient names, a letter icon including a combination of an initial letter of each recipient name in a case in which the recipient names are written with phonetic characters, and a figure, sorts the recipients in a predetermined display order based on the initial letter included in the letter icon, and displays the sorted recipients in the operation screen.
