US Patent 9438697 User interface content state synchronization across devices

A computer-implemented method is provided that synchronizes the user interface state of content of a host application on a host device with a client application on a client device. By synchronizing the user interface state across the devices, the client application on the client device displays the user interface of content of the host application. This allows a user of the devices to leverage a larger display screen of the client device to improve the user's experience when viewing content originally displayed on the host device.
