Abstract
Methods and systems for communicating information between mobile applications are presented. In some embodiments, a mobile device may determine that a plurality of applications are running on the mobile device. The mobile device may determine that each application of the plurality of applications uses a shared passcode to encrypt information about a persistent state. The mobile device may generate a beacon that includes encrypted state information. The mobile device may maintain state information across the plurality of applications beyond the lifetime of any one of the plurality of applications by transmitting the beacon from a first application to a second application before the first application's lifetime is completed.
