Methods, apparatuses and computer program products for updating a content item
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- determining, with a processor, that a current context of a first content item is inactive;
identifying an occurrence of a triggering event occurring before an activation of the current context of the first content item;
receiving an indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event and setting the current context as a predefined context of the first content item;
in response to receiving the indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event, causing storing of a usage pattern related to the first content item and the associated triggering event; and
in response to a subsequent occurrence of the triggering event and based on the stored usage pattern, causing a subsequent activation of the current context of the first content item.

Abstract
Methods, apparatuses and computer program products are provided for updating a content item. In this regard, a current context associated with a content item can be determined based on criteria such as, a user'"'"'s tendencies, user preferences, battery level, time of day, etc. The current context of the content item can be active or inactive. If a content item is in an active current context and an associated triggering event occurs, the content item can be updated. If the content item is in an inactive current context, the content item need not be updated. Content items may be updated in various manners, including generating a preview of the content item. A preview of a content item may be generated by retrieving the content item via an interface, where the interface is determined from data associated with the content item. Upon retrieval of a content item via the interface, a preview of the content item can be generated, such as by generating an image file having associated metadata. The metadata maybe used for linking the preview to additional, related content items.

8. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at 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, direct the apparatus at least to:
-
determine that a current context of a first content item is inactive; identify an occurrence of a triggering event occurring before an activation of the current context of the first content item; receive an indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event and set the current context as a predefined context of the first content item; in response to receiving the indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event, cause storing of a usage pattern related to the first content item and the associated triggering event; and in response to a subsequent occurrence of the triggering event and based on the stored usage pattern, cause a subsequent activation of the current context of the first content item. - View Dependent Claims (9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14)

15. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program code portions stored therein, the computer-readable program code portions being configured to, when executed, direct an apparatus to:
-
determine that a current context of a first content item is inactive; identify an occurrence of a triggering event occurring before an activation of the current context of the first content item; receive an indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event and set the current context as a predefined context of the first content item; in response to receiving the indication of the activation of the current context of the first content item after the occurrence of the triggering event, cause storing of a usage pattern related to the first content item and the associated triggering event; and in response to a subsequent occurrence of the triggering event and based on the stored usage pattern, cause a subsequent activation of the current context of the first content item. - View Dependent Claims (16, 17, 18, 19, 20)
