INPUT OPERATION SUPPORT APPARATUS AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR
First Claim
1. An input operation support apparatus having a speech output unit configured to output a voice message corresponding to an input operation to an operation unit, the apparatus comprising:
- a detection unit configured to detect an input operation to the operation unit; and
a control unit configured to, when said detection unit detects a second input operation within a predetermined time after a first input operation, restrict output of a voice message corresponding to the second input operation from the speech output unit.

Abstract
An input operation support apparatus which improves user friendliness and comfort by properly controlling a voice guide output along with an operation input from the user is provided. In the input operation support apparatus having a speech output unit which outputs a voice message corresponding to an input operation to an operation unit, a detection unit detects an input operation to the operation unit. When the detection unit detects the second input operation within a predetermined time after the first input operation, a control unit restricts output of a voice message corresponding to the second input operation from the speech output unit.
