Abstract
Configurations for automated synchronization of browser data from a desktop web client (e.g., a desktop web browner) to a web client on a mobile device are provided. In particular, session data including navigation history data of one or more visited web pages on the desktop web client can be synchronized with a mobile device. Initially, session data from the desktop web client can be received over a network. In some configurations, a notification can then be transmitted to a mobile device for indicating session data is available for synchronizing with a mobile web client on the mobile device. The session data is then transmitted to the mobile web client. On the mobile device, the received session data can be displayed in a window of the mobile web client.
