Abstract:

A method includes establishing a session between a first client device and a host device to run an application on the first client device. The method includes receiving an indication to transfer the session from the first client device to a second client device. The method includes storing, in response to receiving the indication, state information of the application for the session. The method includes generating a pointer associated with the session. The method includes generating a scannable code including the pointer. The method includes scanning the displayed scannable code using an imaging element associated with the second client device. The method includes transferring, using the pointer, the session from the first client device to the second client device using the stored state information so that a second display associated with the second client device displays a most recently updated instance of the application from the first client device.
