1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, by a user device, selection of a type of a location-based proximity notification;
receiving, by the user device, a device parameter, a message parameter, and a location parameter for the selected notification type;
detecting, by the user device, that the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter; and
providing, by the user device, a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location.

Abstract
A user device may receive selection of a type of a location-based proximity notification, and may receive a device parameter, a message parameter, and a location parameter for the selected notification type. The user device may detect that the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter, and may provide a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location.

1. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a user device, selection of a type of a location-based proximity notification; receiving, by the user device, a device parameter, a message parameter, and a location parameter for the selected notification type; detecting, by the user device, that the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter; and providing, by the user device, a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location. - View Dependent Claims (2, 3, 4, 5, 6)

7. A user device, comprising:
-
a memory; and a processor to; receive selection of a type of a location-based proximity notification, receive a device parameter, a message parameter, and a location parameter for the selected notification type, determine global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of the user device, determine, based on the GPS coordinates, whether the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter, and provide a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location. - View Dependent Claims (8, 9, 10, 11, 12)

13. A method, comprising:
-
receiving, by a server device and from a user device, a device parameter, a message parameter, a time parameter, and a location parameter associated with a location-based proximity notification; determining, by the server device, whether the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter; determining, by the server device, whether the time parameter includes a time when the user device is proximate to the location defined by the location parameter; and providing, by the server device, a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location and when the time parameter includes a time when the user device is proximate to the location. - View Dependent Claims (14, 15, 16)

17. A server device, comprising:
-
a memory; and a processor to; receive, from a user device, a device parameter, a message parameter, a time parameter, and a location parameter associated with a location-based proximity notification, receive global positioning system (GPS) coordinates of the user device, determine, based on the GPS coordinates, whether the user device is proximate to a location defined by the location parameter, determine whether the time parameter includes a time when the user device is proximate to the location defined by the location parameter, and provide a proximity notification message, defined by the message parameter, to a device defined by the device parameter, when the user device is proximate to the location and when the time parameter includes a time when the user device is proximate to the location. - View Dependent Claims (18, 19, 20)
