Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided in order to provide an efficient interface across multiple devices. The method, apparatus and computer program product may utilize multiple devices communicating with a macro identification module to identify macros from among input received from two or more of the devices to control operation of a target device. Input from each device may be received via a bridge module according to a framework for identifying input macros received from the multiple devices. One or more of the devices may execute the macro identification module to receive input via a bridge interface, or the macro identification module may be separate from the multiple devices. When macros are identified by the macro identification module, the macro identification module may communicate with an application executing on the target device to control the application.
