Abstract
A method, apparatus and computer program product are provided to facilitate user interaction with a display that is capable of presenting at least portions of the user interfaces of multiple devices, such as by recognizing and interpreting a gesture as providing input to one of the devices. In the context of a method, an identification of one or more valid gestures of at least a first device is received in an instance in which a plurality of devices interact such that portions of the respective user interfaces are capable of being presented upon a display. The method also includes receiving information indicative of a gesture and determining whether the gesture is valid. Depending upon whether the gesture is a valid gesture, the method also includes causing an indication of the gesture to be provided to the first device.
