1. A display apparatus configured to be connected to a first network, the display apparatus comprising:
a communication interface configured to communicate with a mobile terminal via the first network and obtain a content from an external server providing a content distribution service via a second network;
a display configured to display a content obtained by the communication interface; and
a processor configured to control the communication interface and the display,
wherein the processor obtains account association information associated with the content distribution service in a case where the mobile terminal is connected to the first network, and performs control to obtain a content based on the content distribution service, from the external server by using the obtained account association information,
wherein the processor performs control to display the obtained content on the display,
wherein the processor determines that the obtained account association information is invalid in a case where communication with the mobile terminal via the first network is impossible since the mobile terminal is not connected to the first network, and
wherein the account association information is associated with biometrics authentication information of a user of the mobile terminal.
