1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:

  • initiating, between first and second computing devices each having one or more processors, communication via a first wireless communication protocol, the first wireless communication protocol being a short-range wireless communication protocol;

    receiving, at the first computing device from the second computing device via the first wireless communication protocol, a set of information for configuring communication via a different, second wireless communication protocol between same-type first and second applications executable by the first and second computing devices, respectively, the set of information indicating that the second application is currently executing in a foreground at the second computing device; and

    in response to receiving the set of information, configuring, by the first computing device, communication via the second wireless communication protocol between the first and second applications.
