Wearable devices may be connected to smart phones through wired or wireless communication and provide users with various functions or operations provided by the smart phones. Due to such convenience, the rate of supply of wearable electronic devices such as smart watches has recently increased.
Electronic devices and wearable devices may generate notifications indicating reception of signals from the outside or generate notifications of events occurring inside to inform users. The notifications may use various methods such as vibration, sounds, and screen displays.

According to an embodiment, the electronic device 10 may identify a change in the communication state of the wearable device 20.
For example, the electronic device 10 may determine that communication is established when regular transmission/reception of data or signals to/from the wearable device 20 starts. Alternatively, the electronic device 10 may determine that communication starts when the electronic device 10 receives notification of the start of the communication state from the wearable device 20.
For example, when regular transmission/reception of data or signals to/from the wearable device 20 stops, the electronic device 10 may identify that the communication state ends. Alternatively, when notification of the end of the communication state is received from the wearable device 20, the electronic device 10 may determine that communication ends.

According to an embodiment, the user interface 810 may guide the user to store a time 820 and a notification mode 830 to correspond to each other. For example, the user may add a time interval 821 from 8:00 to 18:00 to the time 820 and determine the notification mode 830 as a mute mode 831.
For example, when the user selects “time” 820, the user interface 810 may display a popup window for inputting a time interval to be added and a notification mode (for example, mute, sound, or vibration) in the time interval to be added on the display 12.
The user may add the time interval to be added and input the notification mode in the added time interval through the popup window. For example, the user may input the time interval from 8:00 to 18:00 and input the mute mode 831 as the notification mode in accordance with the time interval 821 from 8:00 to 18:00 through the popup window.
When the time interval from 8:00 to 18:00 and the notification mode in the corresponding time interval are newly added through the popup window, the electronic device 10 may display the time interval from 8:00 to 18:00 and the mute mode 831 determined as the notification mode in the corresponding time interval in the user interface 810.
According to an embodiment, the electronic device 10 may add a time interval 822 from 18:00 to 22:00 and a time interval 823 from 22:00 to 8:00 to the time 820 through the above-described process and store the notification mode 830 determined for each time interval.
According to various embodiments, the user interface 810 may guide the user to add the time interval to which the current time belongs to the time list 829. For example, the user may change the time interval in units of 1 hour or 30 minutes based on the current time and add the time interval to the time list 829.
According to various embodiments, the electronic device 10 may store the pattern by which the electronic device 10 has selected or changed notification modes in the form of data corresponding to time, provide a plurality of notification modes which are set for each time to the user on the basis of the accumulated data, and then display a user interface for guiding the user to perform selection. However, the disclosure is not limited thereto. For example, the electronic device 10 may determine the notification mode that has been most frequently selected as the notification mode of the corresponding time on the basis of the accumulated data.

For example, the electronic device 10 may identify that a first time interval 821 from 8:00 to 18:00, a second time interval 822 from 18:00 to 22:00 and a third time interval 823 from 22:00 to 8:00 The electronic device 10 may sequentially change the notification mode of the electronic device 10 in the order of the mute mode, the sound mode, and the vibration mode for each time interval.
In this case, the electronic device 10 may display a notification mode icon 851 displayed in a notification window 550 in accordance with the changed notification mode.
According to an embodiment, when the notification mode corresponding to the received operation state of the wearable device 20 is different from the notification mode corresponding to the current time, the electronic device 10 may determine one notification mode according to a priority.
For example, when the notification mode corresponding to the operation state of the wearable device 20 is the vibration mode and the notification mode corresponding to the time is the sound mode, the electronic device 10 may determine the notification mode according to the priority.
According to an embodiment, the priority may be set by the manufacturer of the electronic device 10. Further, the electronic device 10 may provide a user interface through which the user sets the priority.
For example, the wearable device 20 may be in the state in which the wearable device 20 is removed from the user's body part (for example, the wrist). The electronic device 10 may prepare to change the notification mode to the vibration mode on the basis of the operation state received from the wearable device 20. Further, the electronic device 10 may identify the current time (for example, 19:00) and prepare to maintain the notification mode as the sound mode or change the same.
In this case, when a predetermined priority is the notification mode corresponding to the operation state of the wearable device 20, the electronic device 10 may determine that the notification mode is the vibration mode. According to various embodiments, when the predetermined priority is the notification mode corresponding to the time, the electronic device 10 may maintain or change the notification mode to the sound mode.
In this case, the electronic device 10 may display a notification mode icon 851 displayed in a notification window 850 in accordance with the changed notification mode.
