1. A method for operating an electronic device comprising a first hearing aid which is connected to a second hearing aid, the method comprising:
- acquiring battery status information of the electronic device;
transmitting the battery status information and information indicating a first function being operated in the electronic device to an external electronic device;
receiving, from the external electronic device, a control signal comprising information associated with a second function which is determined based on the battery status information and information indicating the first function being operated in the electronic device; and
in response to receiving the control signal, stopping the first function and receiving an audio signal through a microphone included in the first hearing aid based on control signal; and
transmitting the audio signal to the external electronic device.
