Abstract
Methods, apparatuses, and computer program products are herein provided for hiding access to information in an image. A method may include receiving user input indicating a desire of a user to magnify a region within an image to a level of magnification. The method may further include causing the region to be magnified to the level of magnification. The method may further include determining whether the region is associated with at least one of an application or information and determining whether the level of magnification satisfies a level of magnification threshold. The method may further include causing the at least one application to be launched or information to be opened in an instance in which the region is associated with the at least one of an application or information and the level of magnification satisfies the level of magnification threshold. Corresponding apparatuses and computer program products are also provided.
