Abstract
Computer-based methods and devices for establishing a content mirroring session during which two devices concurrently present or display the same content are disclosed. Consistent with an embodiment of the invention, a first device displays a visual indicator when the first device is physically positioned and oriented to target a second device, with which the first device is authorized to establish a content mirroring session. The visual indicator, which may be a graphical user interface element such as a button or icon, identifies the device that is being targeted by the first device, and in some embodiments, indicates to a user that a content mirroring session can be established with the targeted device.
