Various embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a communication apparatus capable of preventing a decrease in the speed of communication with an external device due to execution of a handover when the communication apparatus is connected to the external device, and also directed to a control method and a recording medium. A communication apparatus provides, by using a first communication portion that uses a first communication method, communication information for performing communication based on a second communication method to an external device, and causes a second communication portion that uses the second communication method to connect with the external device using the second communication method, and performs control in such a manner that, in a case where the second communication portion connects with the external device, the first communication portion is used to provide communication information to no other external devices.

A function executing device is configured to send a wireless identifier to a communication device via a first type of wireless communication interface for setting up a wireless connection. The function executing device is configured to determine whether the function executing device is in an error state and, if not, to establish the wireless connection via a second type of wireless communication interface. The function executing device operates in a parent state in the wireless connection. Additionally, print data may be received from the communication device. However, if the function executing device is in an error state the wireless connection is not established via the second type of wireless communication interface.

In a case where a communication apparatus receives an instruction for making a printing apparatus stop operation of a direct wireless communication mode, the communication apparatus determines whether to make the printing apparatus stop the operation of the direct wireless communication mode based on information acquired from the printing apparatus through Bluetooth® Low Energy communication.

An information processing apparatus capable of communicating with an external apparatus, comprises: an obtainment unit that obtains information from an external apparatus; a determination unit that determines an operation mode of the information processing apparatus; and a notification unit that performs a notification based on the information obtained by the obtainment unit, wherein the notification unit, if the mode determined by the determination unit is a specific operation mode, performs the notification based on the information obtained by the obtainment unit in a second notification screen that is smaller than a first notification screen, and, if the mode determined by the determination unit is not the specific operation mode, performs the notification based on the information obtained by the obtainment unit in the first notification screen.
