Abstract
An approach is provided for delivering messages to a user based on their activity status. An activity detection platform receives a request to deliver a message from a sending device to a receiving device. The activity detection platform also detects an activity status of a receiving user associated with the receiving device based on the request. The activity detection platform also presents at least one delivery option for the message at the sending device to a sending user based on the detection. The message is then processed based on the at least one delivery option selected by the sending user prior to a presentation of the message to the receiving user.
