1. A method comprising:
- detecting a predefined trigger for activating an augmented reality mode;
receiving an indication of a selected portion of content displayed on an interface, the interface comprising the selected portion of content and an unselected portion of content other than the selected portion of content, wherein the selected portion of content relates to a first application and the unselected portion of content relates to at least one other application;
determining, responsive to the predefined trigger, the selected portion of content displayed in the interface, wherein determining the selected portion of content visibly displayed comprises determining displayed content with a relevancy value which satisfies a predetermined relevancy threshold based at least in part on a user preference and a user context, wherein the user context includes a non-location-based property of the user, and wherein the user preference is determined based at least in part on user history; and
activating, by augmented reality control circuitry, the augmented reality mode, wherein content displayed in the augmented reality mode is at least partially defined by the determined selected portion of content, and wherein the augmented reality mode does not display content associated with the unselected portion of content.

11. An apparatus comprising at least one processor and at least one memory storing computer program code, wherein the at least one memory and stored computer program code are configured, with the at least one processor, to cause the apparatus to at least:
-
detect a predefined trigger for activating an augmented reality mode; receive an indication of a selected portion of content displayed on an interface, the interface comprising the selected portion of content and an unselected portion of content other than the selected portion of content, wherein the selected portion of content relates to a first application and the unselected portion of content relates to at least one other application; determine, responsive to the predefined trigger, the selected portion of content displayed in the interface, wherein determining the selected portion of content visibly displayed comprises determining displayed content with a relevancy value which satisfies a predetermined relevancy threshold based at least in part on a user preference and a user context, wherein the user context includes a non-location-based property of the user, and wherein the user preference is determined based at least in part on user history; and activate the augmented reality mode, wherein content displayed in the augmented reality mode is at least partially defined by the determined selected portion of content, and wherein the augmented reality mode does not display content associated with the unselected portion of content. - View Dependent Claims (12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A computer program product comprising at least one non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable program instructions stored therein, the computer-readable program instructions comprising:
-
program instructions configured to detect a predefined trigger for activating an augmented reality mode; program instructions configured to receive an indication of a selected portion of content displayed on an interface, the interface comprising the selected portion of content and an unselected portion of content other than the selected portion of content, wherein the selected portion of content relates to a first application and the unselected portion of content relates to at least one other application; program instructions configured to determine, responsive to the predefined trigger, the selected portion of content displayed in the interface, wherein determining the selected portion of content visibly displayed comprises determining displayed content with a relevancy value which satisfies a predetermined relevancy threshold based at least in part on a user preference and a user context, wherein the user context includes a non-location-based property of the user, and wherein the user preference is determined based at least in part on user history; and program instructions configured to activate the augmented reality mode, wherein content displayed in the augmented reality mode is at least partially defined by the determined selected portion of content, and wherein the augmented reality mode does not display content associated with the unselected portion of content. - View Dependent Claims (20)
