An approach is provided for managing device do-not-disturb operational modes based on context information. A do-not-disturb manager determines context information associated with a device, a user of the device, or a combination thereof. The do-not-disturb manager also processes and/or facilitates a processing of the context information to cause, at least in part, an activation of one or more operational modes of the device. The do-not-disturb manager also causes, at least in part, a disabling or enabling of one or more functions of one or more applications associated with the device based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes.

1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following: context information associated with a device, a user of
1. A method comprising facilitating a processing of and/or processing (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal based, at least in part, on the following: context information associated with a device, a user of the device, or a combination thereof;a processing and/or a facilitating of processing of the context information to cause, at least in part, activation of one or more operational modes of the device;a disabling or enabling of one or more functions of one or more applications associated with the device based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes, wherein the disabling or enabling of the one or more functions includes blocking a communication attempt by another party; anda generating of broadcast information associated with the device, the user of the device, or the combination thereof based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes, the context information, or a combination thereof,wherein the broadcast information contains a threshold amount of time as to when the user is expected to return the blocked communication attempt to the other party, andwherein, upon an elapsed time from the broadcast information to the other party exceeding the threshold amount of time, the user is notified of the blocked communication attempt by the other party and an amount of time exceeding the threshold amount of time. 2. A method of claim 1, in the activation of the one or more operational modes, the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: specifying at least one device parameter to indicate, at least in part, the one or more operational modes; andcausing the one or more applications to determine the disabling or enabling of the one or more functions based, at least in part, on the at least one device parameter. 3. A method of claim 1, wherein the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: a monitoring of the context information; anda processing and/or facilitating a processing of the monitoring to determine one or more updates to the context information,wherein the activation of the one or more operational modes is based, at least in part, on the one or more updates. 4. A method of claim 1, wherein the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: the context information being based, at least in part, on one or more triggers associated with the device, with one or more other devices associated with device, or a combination thereof; anda processing and/or facilitating a processing of the context information includes a processing and/or facilitating a processing of the triggers compared to principles to determine at least one score,wherein the activation of the one or more operational modes is based, at least in part, on the at least one score. 5. A method of claim 4, wherein an amount of the disabling or enabling of the one or more functions of the one or more applications associated with the device is based, at least in part, on the at least one score. 6. A method of claim 4, wherein the one or more triggers are associated with one or environmental parameters, user parameters, device parameters, other device parameters, and/or applications parameters. 7. A method of claim 1, wherein the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: a monitoring of the context information;a processing and/or facilitating a processing of the monitoring to determine one or more updates to the context information; anda generating of broadcast information associated with the device, the user of the device, or the combination thereof based, at least in part, on the one or more updates to the context information. 8. A method of claim 1, wherein the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: a detecting of one or more events associated with the device, the user of the device, or a combination thereof;a processing and/or facilitating a processing to determine if the one or more events are enabled or disabled based on the activated one or more operational modes; anda logging of identification information associated with the one or more events based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes. 9. A method of claim 8, wherein the (1) data and/or (2) information and/or (3) at least one signal are further based, at least in part, on the following: a generating of one or more notifications of the identification information associated with the one or more events upon a change in the activated one or more operational modes. 10. An apparatus comprising: at least one processor; andat least one memory including computer program code,the at least one memory and the computer program code configured to, with the at least one processor, cause the apparatus to perform at least the following, determine context information associated with a device, a user of the device, or a combination thereof;process and/or facilitate a processing of the context information to cause, at least in part, activation of one or more operational modes of the device;cause, at least in part, a disabling or enabling of one or more functions of one or more applications associated with the device based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes, wherein the disabling or enabling of the one or more functions includes blocking a communication attempt by another party; andcause, at least in part, a generating of broadcast information associated with the device, the user of the device, or the combination thereof based, at least in part, on the activated one or more operational modes, the context information, or a combination thereof,wherein the broadcast information contains a threshold amount of time as to when the user is expected to return the blocked communication attempt to the other party, andwherein, upon an elapsed time from the broadcast information to the other party exceeding the threshold amount of time, the user is notified of the blocked communication attempt by the other party and an amount of time exceeding the threshold amount of time. 11. An apparatus of claim 10, in the activation of the one or more operational modes, the apparatus is further caused to: cause, at least in part, a specification of at least one device parameter to indicate, at least in part, the one or more operational modes; andcause, at least in part, the one or more applications to determine the disabling or enabling of the one or more functions based, at least in part, on the at least one device parameter. 12.
