Disclosed herein is an apparatus and method for recognizing a nearby device, which measure distances between devices and calculate intimacies between the devices, thus notifying a user of the distances to and intimacies with nearby devices. The apparatus includes a distance determination module unit for determining distances to a plurality of nearby devices based on signals for distance determination, received from the respective nearby devices. A zone determination module unit determines zones to which the respective nearby devices belong, among multiple zones, depending on the distances to the respective nearby devices. A nearby device recognition module unit recognizes the nearby devices using received information of the nearby devices. An intimacy determination module unit determines intimacies with the nearby devices, based on previously stored information required for intimacy determination. A user interface unit displays results of distance determination and intimacy determination to a user.
