A method for controlling interference in an audio service and a terminal, where the method includes sending, by a first terminal, a first message using a short-range wireless communications technology when executing an audio service, determining, by a second terminal according to the first message, whether the second terminal supports interference control, and adjusting, by the second terminal, a setting of the second terminal according to the interference control parameter when the second terminal supports the interference control, and the second terminal falls within a controlled range. It can be learned that in a process in which the first terminal performs interference control on the second terminal, the first terminal may send the first message to the second terminal without a need of a noise reduction device such that the second terminal adjusts the setting of the second terminal.
