wherein the one or more computer programs include computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors individually or collectively, cause the electronic device to:
in response to connecting a wireless audio device to the electronic device while the wireless audio device is worn by a user, monitor user utterances to determine whether a user utterance comprises a device-controlling instruction,
receive the user utterance comprising a first device-controlling instruction for controlling a type of device,
determine whether the user owns a target device of the type of device based on a user-owned device list,
in response to determining that the user owns the target device of the type of device, determine whether the first device-controlling instruction is associated with an audio function, and
in response to determining that the user owns the target device of the type of device, and that the device-controlling instruction is associated with the audio function, suggest a connection switching for the wireless audio device from the electronic device to the target device.
