A vehicle warning apparatus includes a line-of-sight information acquisition unit, a movement information acquisition unit, a screen information acquisition unit, a warning level determination unit, and a warning unit. The warning level determination unit determines a state of the driver and a state of use of the mobile device by the driver based on line-of-sight information including a direction of a line of sight of a driver, movement information indicating a movement of a particular part of the driver, and screen information indicating a state of a screen of the mobile device, and determines a warning level based on a result of the determination. The warning unit gives a warning based on the warning level that is stronger as the warning level is higher. The warning level determination unit decreases the warning level when a function of the mobile device in use is an allowed function.
