A storage unit stores name, phone number, and a videophoning flag indicating whether to preferentially use a videophone or not in association with each person to communicate with. A CPU refers to the videophoning flag associated with a person when controlling a communication unit to make a call to that person, and determines whether to prioritize a voice phone or to prioritize the videophone. The CPU controls the communication unit to make a call by the videophone if the videophone is prioritized, or to make a call by the voice phone if the voice phone is prioritized. When a call from a person is received by the videophone, the CPU refers to the videophoning flag of that person, and permits communication by the videophone if the videophone is prioritized or does not permit communication by the videophone if the voice phone is prioritized. |
