An electronic including a transceiver configured to receive, from at least one wearable device, information indicating whether the at least one wearable device is being worn; and a processor configured to determine whether the at least one wearable device that is being worn, based on the received information indicating whether the at least one wearable device is being worn, and to provide a notification to the at least one wearable device in response to determining that the at least one wearable device is being worn.

Claims (19)

1. A method of providing a notification by an electronic device, the method comprising:

based on detecting an event, presenting a first notification for the detected event on a touch screen of the electronic device;

providing, to a wearable device, a notification information for the detected event such that a second notification for the detected event is presented on a touch screen of the wearable device;

receiving, from the wearable device, information indicating that the second notification is checked at the wearable device; and

based on the received information, stopping the presenting of the first notification on the touch screen of the electronic device.

2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the providing of the notification information comprises providing the notification information for the detected event based on at least one of a state of the wearable device or a state of the electronic device.
