A basic information recording unit (122) holds the version data, in which the versions of a plurality of application programs stored in a mobile type information device are written. An update confirming unit (110) receives such update situation data from a server as indicates the presence/absence of a version update of at least one of the application programs. On the basis of the update situation data, an update specifying unit (112) specifies the application program of a version older than the updated version. A display processing unit (114) displays a menu screen, in which a plurality of start icons of the application programs are arranged, and changes the start icon of the application program, which is specified by the update specifying unit (112), into a predetermined appearance indicating that the version has been updated.
