The present application discloses a method of displaying images on a vehicle. The method includes disclosing user information, including an image to be displayed, to an exchange application, transmitting the image to a controller configured to receive user information, instructing, by the controller, an electronic display to display the image to display the image to a viewer outside of the vehicle, and displaying the image, by the electronic display, to the viewer outside of the vehicle. The electronic display is disposed on or integrated into a window of the vehicle and configured to move in unison with the vehicle to display the image. The electronic display is configured to be transparent to a viewer inside of the vehicle. The controller is in communication with the electronic display.

An exemplary method includes receiving, at a mobile device, a wireless message. The method includes determining, at the mobile device at a first location, first ambient signal data. The wireless message includes (i) message content and (ii) second ambient signal data for a second location, wherein the message content corresponds to the second location. The method includes comparing, at the mobile device, the first ambient signal data and the second ambient signal data. The method also includes determining, at the mobile device, whether to present a message indicative of the message content at a user interface of the mobile device based at least in part on the comparison of the first ambient signal data and the second ambient signal data.
