Abstract: An application executing on a client device provides enhanced services at a venue (e.g., ticketing, food orders, etc.). To allow a single application to be used for multiple venues or to provide different functionality to different users of a single venue, the application downloads a configuration file from a venue management system. The configuration file identifies functions authorized to be performed by the application. Additionally, the configuration file specifies an appearance of an interface provided by the application based on contextual information obtained by the application. Examples of contextual information include a time of day, a location, a venue identifier, a device identifier, and a user identifier (e.g., a username). Configuring the application based on obtained configuration file avoids users downloading and updating multiple applications for different venues or to provide different functionality.
