1. An information terminal that an operation by a voice input is possible, comprising:
- a storage module operable to store a plurality of applications and a use history of each of the applications;
an acquisition module operable to acquire specific information for specifying an application to be performed based on an input voice;
a narrowing-down module operable to narrow down, based on the use history, the specific information that is acquired; and
a performing module operable to perform an application based on a result that is narrowed down by the narrowing-down module.

Abstract
A mobile phone 10 is installed with a plurality of applications, and an arbitrary operation by a voice input can be performed. The mobile phone 10 stores a history of an application performed by a user in a RAM (46). If the user performs a voice input saying “Use camera”, “standard camera” and “AR camera” that are applications in a category of “camera” are acquired as a search result. At this time, the search result is narrowed down based on a use history of the user. If a use frequency of “standard camera” is higher than that of “AR camera”, “standard camera” is performed.
