1. A method comprising:
- determining, by a sensor of a mobile device, that a first ambient sound level represents a quiet context for the mobile device;
providing an audio signal to a speaker of the mobile device in response to determining that the first ambient sound level represents a quiet context;
determining, by the sensor, that a second ambient sound level represents a first noisy context for the mobile device, wherein the second ambient sound level is louder than the first ambient sound level;
modifying the audio signal into a beam forming audio signal in response to determining that the second ambient sound level represents the first noisy context; and
providing the beam forming audio signal to the speaker.
