Abstract

In an embodiment, a method of differentiating between at least two peripheral electronic devices may include, by a primary electronic device, receiving a request from a user to identify a desired peripheral electronic device associated with the user, identifying a plurality of peripheral electronic devices associated with the user, receiving an image associated with each of the identified peripheral electronic devices, displaying one or more of the received images, receiving a selection of one of the displayed images, identifying the peripheral electronic device associated with the selected displayed image as the desired peripheral electronic device, and causing one or more settings of the desired peripheral electronic device to be changed.
