Abstract

An object of the present invention is to enable smooth performance testing of an application software on a mobile communication terminal and to make execution state information about the application software available solely to authorized persons. The cellular phone 1 according to the present invention comprises a display 5, wireless unit 7, and control unit 2. As used herein, the display 5 is a display apparatus for displaying information. From a delivery server, the wireless unit 7 receives application software together with attribute information that indicates whether execution state information stored in a specific storage area by the application software should be displayed. The control unit 2 performs a control routine such that the execution state information is displayed by the display 5 when the attribute information indicates that the execution state information should be displayed, and the execution state information is not displayed by the display 5 when the attribute information indicates that the execution state information should not be displayed.
