Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are herein provided for saving and resuming a state of a collaborative interaction session between devices based on the positional relationship of the devices. A method may include determining, in an instance in which a first device and at least one second device are engaged in a collaborative interaction session, a first positional relationship. The method may further include receiving an indication of termination of the collaborative interaction session, determining the collaborative interaction session state and causing that state to be stored. The method may further include determining a second positional relationship and causing the collaborative interaction session to resume at the stored collaborative interaction session state based upon a relationship between the first positional relationship and the second positional relationship. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.
