Abstract
According to various embodiments, an electronic device comprises a communication circuit, a processor, and a memory electrically connected to the processor, wherein the memory, when executed, can store commands for allowing the processor to: receive, from a first external electronic device, a first synchronization signal including first identification information through the communication circuit; synchronize the electronic device with the first external electronic device on the basis of at least a part of the information included in the first synchronization signal; receive, from a second external electronic device, a second synchronization signal including second identification information through the communication circuit; and control, on the basis of the second identification information and the first identification information, whether synchronization with second external electronic device occurs. Additional various embodiments are possible.
