Abstract
A method for application connection includes receiving, by a first electronic device, a list of application active sessions based on the active sessions being in an area of a global positioning system (GPS) location of the first electronic device. The first electronic device receives a selection of an active session associated with a first application running on a second electronic device. In response to the selection of the active session, the first electronic device receives information including at least a service set identification (SSID) and a network security key associated with the secure local network. The first electronic device connects to the secure local network without user input of the SSID and the network security key from a user of the first electronic device. The first electronic device connects to the first application running on the second electronic device via the secure local network.
