at least one processor which functions as:
a facing-direction detection unit configured to detect a direction of a facing direction representing a direction in which a user of the electronic apparatus is facing;
a setting unit configured to set the electronic apparatus to one of multiple modes, including a normal mode, a first power saving mode in which the power consumption of the electronic apparatus is lower than that of the normal mode, and a second power saving mode in which the power consumption of the electronic apparatus is lower than that of the first power saving mode, based on detection results of the facing-direction detection unit;
wherein the setting unit is configured to:
set the electronic apparatus to the second power saving mode, in a case where the facing direction of the user is not detected by the facing-direction detection unit;
set the electronic apparatus to the first power saving mode, in a case where the facing direction of the user detected by the facing-direction detection unit is not towards the display and the facing direction of the user detected by the facing-direction detection unit is less than or equal to a predetermined angle away from a direction towards the display;
set the electronic apparatus to the second power saving mode, in a case where the facing direction of the user detected by the facing-direction detection unit is not towards the display and the facing direction is greater than the predetermined angle away from the direction towards the display; and
set the electronic apparatus to the normal power saving mode, in a case where the facing direction of the user detected by the facing-direction detection unit is towards the display.
