Abstract:
An approach is provided for providing media and alert notification during a hold status of a communication session. The approach includes detecting a hold status of a communication session associated with a device. The approach also includes monitoring hold media transmitted to the device during the hold status and processing the monitored hold media to determine a variation in a characteristic of the hold media. The approach further includes determining a change in the hold status based on the variation; and presenting an alert notification on the device, another device, or a combination thereof to indicate the change in the hold status.

Abstract:
An approach is provided for an anti-bullying service. A service platform monitors interaction data from one or more applications, wherein the interaction data is associated with an interaction between a source and a target. The service platform analyzes the interaction data to parse one or more indicators of a monitored conduct between the source and the target. The service platform then initiates at least one of (a) a recording of the interaction data; (b) a transmission of an alert message, the one or more indicators, the interaction data, the monitored conduct, or a combination thereof to a third party; and (c) a pushing of an anti-conduct application to a source device associated with the source, a target device associated with the target, or a combination thereof based on the monitored conduct, the one or more indicators, or a combination thereof.
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.
