An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; and at least one memory including computer program code, the at least one memory and the computer program code configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to perform at least the following: based on an entered text string, enable selection of at least a part of a presented full text string as an adaptation for the entered text string by a user interaction with the presented full text string itself, the presented full text string being presented to the user prior to initiation of entry of the entered text string.

Apparatus for text entry and associated methods

Mechanisms are described for determining a contact associated with keywords of content presented to a user and for enabling communication with the contact via the same user interface via which the content is presented. At least one keyword is identified relating to content presented to the user via the user interface, and a contact is determined that is associated with the keyword identified. A communication is then caused to be exchanged between the user and the contact determined in response to receipt of a communication input provided by the user. The communication input is received via the user interface presenting the content. In this way, a user can make quick connections to contacts for sharing information in the process of consuming content based on an analysis of keywords from the content.

Apparatus and method for providing connections to contacts based on associations with content

An approach is provided for providing efficient power saving schemes for a device and any associated sensors thereon while allowing for various levels of functionalities. A device determines a distance from a location of a device on a route to a checkpoint location on the route based, at least in part, on mapping data associated with the route. Then the device causes an initiation of a sleep mode of operation for at least one location sensor associated with the device. Further, the device causes an initiation of an active mode of operation for the at least one location sensor based, at least one in part, on a determination that the device has substantially traveled the distance, a portion of the distance, or a combination thereof.

Method and apparatus for power saving scheme in a location sensor

An example approach is provided for causing, at least in part, a generation of token data associated with at least one scheduled meeting between at least one first user and at least one second user. The approach also involves causing, at least in part, a transmission of the token data to at least one first device associated with the at least one first user and at least one second device associated with the at least one second user. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, a sharing of location information between the at least one first device and the at least one second device based, at least in part, on the token data.
