Abstract: In non-limiting examples of the present disclosure, systems, methods and devices for transferring application state are provided. A connection between a first computing device and a second computing device may be established. A determination that a triggering event has occurred may be made. Application context data may be automatically obtained from a first application being executed by the first computing device, wherein the application context data is in a first format and the application context data specifies a location of a resource being accessed by the first application on the first computing device. The application context data may be transformed to a second format that is executable by the second platform. A second application of the second computing device that can open the resource via execution of the application context data in the second format may be selected. The resource may be opened by the second application.
