1. An information processing apparatus, comprising: circuitry configured to: obtain an input position detected with respect to an input operation; obtain a depressing force detected with respect to the input operation; fix the input position as a position of an input candidate in response to a first timing at which an increase amount of the depressing force has exceeded a first threshold value, at a stage prior to an input candidate determination operation of determining the input candidate as input information; and cancel fixing of the input candidate position, after the position of the input candidate has been fixed, in response to a second timing at which the depressing force has started to decrease after having increased , or ; and cancel fixing of the input candidate position, after the position of the input candidate has been fixed, in response to a third timing at which the depressing force has exceeded an input start threshold value.
