Abstract

A mobile computing device system includes a first host application on a mobile computing device and a sub-application on the mobile computing device that is configured to selectively execute in response to execution of the first host application by the mobile computing device. A first user interface is displayed by the first host application on the mobile computing device by the first host application. The sub-application is configured to execute a method including determining a location of the mobile computing device, and if the mobile computing device is determined to be at a location within a predetermined geographic area, then generating an alert message including digital content associated with the first geographic area, and displaying the alert message on the first user interface. If the mobile computing device is not determined to be at a location within the predetermined first geographic area, then not displaying the alert message on the first user interface.
