Abstract
A device is disclosed, which includes a processor and a memory in communication with the processor. The memory includes executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor to control the device to perform functions of receiving user interaction data from a remote device via a communication network, the user interaction data indicating user interaction with a graphical user interface of the remote device; determining, based on the user interaction data, that the user interaction causes a display conflict between the graphical user interface of the remote device and visual information displayed on the graphical user interface of the remote device; and resolving the display conflict by causing the remote device to display modified visual information. The device thus allows a user to see and interact with the graphical user interface without needing to stop or pause displaying the visual information or to wait for the visual information display to be over.
