Abstract
A communication terminal receives first state information that indicates transition of a state of a counterpart communication terminal from a previous state to a current state, determines whether the communication terminal currently has a state associated with the current state of the counterpart communication terminal indicated by the first state information, and control output of content data transmitted from the counterpart communication terminal for display at the communication terminal based on determination. When the determination indicates that the communication terminal has the state associated with the current state of the counterpart communication terminal, the content data transmitted from the counterpart communication terminal is output for display at the communication terminal.
