Method and apparatus for providing sharing of navigation route and guidance information among devices

摘要

An approach is provided for processing and/or facilitating a processing of at least one request to share navigation routing information from at least one first device to at least one second device. The approach involves determining that at least one application associated with the navigation routing information is not installed on the at least one second device. The approach also involves causing, at least in part, a querying for at least one communication account associated with the at least one second device. The approach further involves causing, at least in part, a transmission of at least one capture of the navigation routing information to the at least one second device using that least one communication account.

1. A method comprising:
processing, by an apparatus, at least one request to share navigation routing information from at least one first device to at least one second device; making, by the apparatus, a determination that at least one navigation application that presents the navigation routing information on a user interface of the at least one first device is not installed on the at least one second device, and the at least one second device has registered with one or more social network services; and in response to the determination, initiating, by the apparatus, a transmission of one or more images, one or more audio recordings, or a combination thereof, of the navigation routing information captured at the at least one first device to the at least one second device using a real time chat via one of the social network services.
