A method and a device for connecting electronic devices are provided. The method includes: sending a first communication connection request to a second electronic device and establishing a first path based on a first protocol by a first electronic device; receiving a response message, determining whether the content of the response message satisfies a first preset condition; if the content of the response message satisfies the first preset condition, sending a second communication connection request to the second electronic device through the first path and establishing a second path based on a second protocol; where the first protocol is different from the second protocol and the first path correlates with the second path. With this method, different data is transmitted between two electronic devices through the first path and the second path simultaneously and data interaction and sharing are achieved in a simple way.
