Abstract
An approach is provided for improving reception availability for multi-subscriber identity module (SIM) devices. The approach involves determining network access information for one or more applications resident on a device having two or more subscriber identity modules, wherein the network access information specifies, at least in part, one or more network access schedules, which of the two or more subscriber identity modules to use for establishing one or more network connections for the one or more applications, or a combination thereof. The approach also involves processing and/or facilitating a processing of the network access information to determine a coordinated network access schedule for the one or more applications. The approach further involves determining to use the coordinated network access schedule in place of the one or more network schedules to cause, at least in part, an establishment of the one or more network connections.
