Abstract
A method of creating a communication group based on wearable devices, and such a wearable device are disclosed. The method includes: acquiring the position information of the current wearable device and of the nearby wearable devices; calculating the distances of these nearby wearable devices from the current wearable device based on the position information; building up, by the current wearable device, communication connections with the nearby wearable devices that satisfy the preset conditions and thus creating the communication group. According to the disclosure, the current wearable device can automatically build up a communication group with the nearby wearable devices that satisfy the preset distance requirements, such that a user can expand his friendship circle.
