Abstract: Systems and methods for cross device display synchronization using state data. A second identifier uniquely identifying a second device that is represented on a second display of a second device is obtained at a first device with a first display and a first identifier uniquely identifying the first device. An association is created between the first identifier and the second identifier at a real-time database. User interface (UI) state data defining a first UI state of a UI presented on the first display is submitted from the first device to the real-time database via a first network thereby creating replica UI state data on the real-time database. The real-time database pushes the UI state data to the second device via a second network based on the association between the first identifier and the second identifier thereby causing the second device to synchronize a corresponding UI presented on the second display.
