Original Abstract Submitted
Systems and methods for presenting live sessions on electronic device lock screens are disclosed. In one or more implementations, an application process provides, to a system process executing on a computing device, a user interface template, wherein the user interface template defines one or more pre-defined regions of a user interface view. The system process may subsequently receive additional data. The system process may render the user interface view on a lock screen of the computing device according to the user interface template, wherein the user interface view comprises the additional data included in the one or more pre-defined regions.
