Abstract: A message communication apparatus includes an operating unit, and a controller. The operating unit activates a chat bot. The chat bot runs in a messaging service in which users exchange a message. The chat bot exchanges a message with a user. The controller causes, if the chat bot includes multiple chat bots activated through operation of the operating unit by multiple users, a chat bot activated by a specific user to respond to a message from the specific user.
