An input apparatus comprising:
- a display unit, on which an input screen including a plurality of text entry fields, and a software keyboard are displayed, the software keyboard including first software keys for entering a text in each of text entry fields, and a second software key for changing a target of input to a next text entry field;
- and
- a control unit configured to determine, in response to a user selecting a first text entry field included in the input screen, the selected first text entry field as a target of input and to cause the display unit to display the software keyboard in addition to the input screen,
- wherein in a case where the user selects the second software key, the target of input changes from the determined first text entry field to a second text entry field included in the input screen, and
- wherein in a case where at least one of the plurality of text entry fields on the input screen is selected as a target of input and the software keyboard is displayed, the second software key on the software keyboard is not displayed.
A method comprising:
