Original Abstract Submitted

A method and an apparatus are provided for a displaying a route in a first electronic device. A first message is received from a second electronic device. First position information included in the first message is identified. The first position information includes position information of the second electronic device. A user input for selecting the first message from a plurality of messages is received. Position information of the first electronic device is calculated. Route information between a start position and a destination position is received from a navigation server. The start position corresponds to the position information of the first electronic device and the destination position corresponds to the position information of the second electronic device. Based at least on receiving the route information from the navigation server, a route representing the received route information between the start position and the destination position is displayed on the first electronic device.
