Abstract
An incoming/outgoing call detection section detects an incoming or outgoing phone call from or to another mobile terminal. An information acquisition section acquires related information concerning an incoming or outgoing call in response to detection of the incoming or outgoing call by the detection section. An incoming/outgoing call history generation section generates history information in which the related information acquired by the information acquisition section is kept in association with at least a telephone number of the incoming or outgoing call. An incoming/outgoing call history storing section stores the history information generated by the history generation section. An incoming/outgoing call history notification section notifies to a user of the mobile terminal the related information contained in the history information, in response to an incoming or outgoing call from or to the telephone number contained in the history information stored in the incoming/outgoing call history storing section.
