A control method of a display apparatus which comprises:

• a display unit;
• a connection unit configured to connect an external device to be able to communicate with the external device;
• and
• a control unit configured to control the display unit to make a display based on data received from the external device with which a communication connection is established via the connection unit,
• the method characterized by comprising:
• the control step of acquiring class information indicating a class of the external device from the external device via the connection unit, controlling the display unit to continue the display based on the data received from the external device at the time of disconnection of the communication connection with the external device if the class of the external device indicated by the class information is a predetermined class, and controlling the display unit to end the display based on the data received from the external device at the time of disconnection of the communication connection with the external device if the class of the external device indicated by the class information is not the predetermined class.
