Abstract
Various embodiments relate to an electronic device and method for handling a notification. The method comprises generating data of the notification; generating a notification identifier (ID) of the notification; determining whether the notification ID of the notification is in a first list of at least one notification ID stored in the first electronic device; and transmitting the data of the notification to a second electronic device for the second electronic device to present the notification, based on determining that the notification ID is not in the first list of at least one notification ID.
