ELECTRONIC DEVICE, TIMEPIECE, AND CONTROL METHOD
An electronic device including: a positioning module that performs positioning by receiving radio waves from navigation satellites; a movement distance detection sensor that detects movement distance; and a processor that turns on power of the positioning module and, if positioning with the positioning module has not succeeded after a first prescribed period of time has elapsed, turns off power of the positioning module, wherein if the processor detects that the movement distance detected by the movement distance detection sensor starting from when the positioning module was turned off is greater than or equal to a prescribed distance, the processor turns on power of the positioning module.

Identification of bands for wearable electronic devices
A wearable device can include an electronic device and a band for securing the electronic device to the user. The electronic device can detect an identification of the band, which can serve as an input to initiate actions performed by the electronic device. For example, a type, model, color, size, or other characteristic of a band can be determined and used to select a corresponding action performed by the electronic device. Identification of the band can be performed by components of the electronic device that also serve other purposes. Existing sensors, communication elements, and/or detectors can be used to detect and identity a band provided to the electronic device. The electronic device can respond to the identification of a particular band by performing particular functions, such as changing an aspect of a user interface or altering settings of the electronic device.

Electronic watch
An electronic watch includes a navigation processor that perform navigation processing of causing a positioning processor to perform positioning processing, and calculating a distance to a destination based on current position information acquired by the positioning processing and destination position information, and also calculating a direction of the destination based on current position information, geomagnetism, and destination position information, and moreover causing a display unit to display the direction of the destination, and an operation device configured to case the navigation processor to start navigation processing when a predetermined operation is performed. The navigation processor performs, when the distance is longer than a preset threshold, the navigation processing at a first frequency during a predetermined time after predetermined operation is performed, and performs, when the distance is shorter than or equal to a preset threshold, the navigation processing at a second frequency higher than first frequency during the predetermined time.
