Abstract: A method and a device for scannable code based indoor navigation. In an example, via a first user device, a request for route information from a first location in the indoor area to a second location in the indoor area may be received. Further, a scannable code corresponding to a session established between the first user device and a server device may be generated. The scannable code may include information to enable mirroring of the session between the first user device and a server device to the second user device. When the scannable code is scanned by the second user device, the information pertaining to the session between the first user device and the server device may be provided to the second user device. Further, the second user device may be navigated in the indoor area, based on the route information associated with the session.
