Abstract

An approach is provided for social networking-based item installation. A social network platform receives a request from at least one device, a service, or a combination to initiate an installation of at least one item. The platform processes and/or facilitates a processing of information associated with the at least one device, the request, or a combination thereof to determine at least one other device. The service platform then determines to cause, at least in part, an initiation of the installation of the at least one item at the at least one device, the at least one other device, or a combination thereof.
