Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for sharing a screen from a mobile device. For example, a method includes receiving, at a second mobile device, an image of a screen captured from a first mobile device and determining whether to trigger an automated action. The method may also include displaying, responsive to not triggering the automated action, annotation data generated for the image with the image on a display of the second mobile device, the annotation data including at least one visual cue corresponding to content in the image relevant to a user of the second mobile device. The method may further include, responsive to triggering the automated action, determining that a mobile application associated with the image is installed on the second mobile device and replaying user input actions received with the image on the second mobile device starting from a reference screen associated with the mobile application.
