An electronic device includes a wireless communication circuit section which intermittently executes connection with another electronic device by wireless communication, a sensor section which outputs sensor data related to the movement of the electronic device, and a control section. When the electronic device is making a periodic movement, the control section acquires the cycle of the periodic movement of the electronic device based on the sensor data, and causes the wireless communication circuit section to set connection timing for connecting the electronic device with the another electronic device by the wireless communication to periodic timing based on the cycle.
