Abstract
A data channel and an audio channel may be established between a wearable device and a terminal. When being in the earphone mode, the wearable device notifies the terminal of a current status, and receives and plays the voice message that is obtained by converting the text message and that is sent by the terminal, thereby overcoming an insufficient screen display capability of the wearable device, and enabling a user to conveniently check content of the text message in time.
Claims23
A system, comprising:
- a wearable device;
- and
- a wrist wearing member;
- wherein
- the wearable device:
- is worn on the wrist wearing member;
- determines that the wearable device is in an earphone mode when the wearable device is separated from the wrist wearing member and that the wearable device is in a wristband mode when the wearable device is not separated from the wrist wearing member;
- notifies a terminal that the wearable device is able to receive a voice message when the wearable device is in the earphone mode, and that the wearable device is not able to receive the voice message when the wearable device is in the wristband mode;
- and
- when the wearable device is in the earphone mode, receives the voice message sent by the terminal, wherein the voice message is obtained by converting a text message by the terminal.

1 more element
A wearable device, comprising:
- a processor, configured to determine that the wearable device is in an earphone mode when the wearable device is physically separated from a wearing member and that the wearable device is not in the earphone mode when the wearable device is not physically separated from the wearing member;
- and
- a Bluetooth module, configured to:
- when the wearable device is in the earphone mode, notify a terminal that the wearable device is able to receive a voice message, and when the wearable device is not in the earphone mode, notify the terminal that the wearable device is not able to receive the voice message;
- and
- when the wearable device is in the earphone mode, receive the voice message sent by the terminal, wherein the voice message is obtained by converting a text message by the terminal.
