Abstract

The REMOTE DECOUPLED APPLICATION PERSISTENT STATE APPARATUSES, METHODS AND SYSTEMS (“P-STATE”) transforms purchase action input, cookie states search criteria input, and cookie states selection input via P-STATE components such as cookie/states storage (“CSS”) component; cookie states search presentation (“CSSP”) component; and cookie/states reload/recreate (“CSRR”) component, into cookie state presentation outputs.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1 . A method comprising:
providing, by a persistent state server, a searchable interface for cookie states associated with a user account, wherein the cookie states correspond to at least one purchase selection; receiving, by the persistent state server, a search request for state data related to the cookie states of the user account, wherein the search request is provided by a first client device associated with the user account, the first client device being remote from the one or more processors; receiving, by the persistent state server, a platform identifier associated with the user account and that is different from the first client device;
generating, by the persistent state server, cookie state search results from a cookie database associated with the user account and the search request for state data;
transmitting, by the persistent state server, cookie state search results associated with the search request for state data;
receiving, by the persistent state server, a selection of a first cookie from the cookie state search results;
determining, by the persistent state server, a load status of the first cookie; and
transmitting, by the persistent state server, a cookie response for the first cookie associated with the user account and the platform identifier to a merchant device remote from the persistent state server.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising, reloading, by the persistent state server, the first cookie, wherein the load status is available at the merchant device, and wherein the cookie response is a reloaded state response for the first cookie.

3 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising, recreating by the persistent state server, the first cookie, wherein the load status is unavailable at the merchant device, and wherein the cookie response is a recreated state response for the first cookie.

4 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the search request for state data comprises an input field for at least one of: a merchant identifier, product type, session identifier, client device identifier, timestamp.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first cookie indicates a purchase status for the at least one purchase selection, and wherein the purchase status is paid, pending, or unpaid.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the first cookie comprises state data associated with at least one purchase selection of a user of the user account.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first cookie comprises a timestamp associated with the at least one purchase selection, a merchant device associated with the at least one purchase selection, or a purchase status of the at least one purchase selection.

8 . The method of claim 6 , wherein the first cookie comprises multiple states.

9 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising, providing cloud-based storage to the merchant device associated with the at least one purchase selection such that the user can retrieve any of the multiple states associated with the merchant device.

10 . The method of claim 8 , further comprising providing a preview window to facilitate viewing the multiple states included in the first cookie.

11 . A non-transitory computer readable medium comprising instructions stored thereon, when executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:
provide a searchable interface for cookie states associated with a user account, wherein the cookie states correspond to at least one purchase selection; receive a search request for state data related to the cookie states of the user account, wherein the search request is provided by a first client device associated with the user account, the first client device being remote from the one or more processors; receive a platform identifier that associated with the user account and is different from the first client device;
generate cookie state search results from a cookie database associated with the user account and the search request for state data;
transmit cookie state search results associated with the search request for state data;
receive a selection of a first cookie from the cookie state search results;
determine a load status of the first cookie; and
transmit a cookie response for the first cookie associated with the user account and the platform identifier to a merchant device remote from the persistent state server.

12 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further cause the one or more processors to reload the first cookie, wherein the load status is available at the merchant device, and wherein the cookie response is a reloaded state response for the first cookie.

13 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further cause the one or more processors to recreate the first cookie, wherein the load status is unavailable at the merchant device, and wherein the cookie response is a recreated state response for the first cookie.

14 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the search request for state data comprises an input field for at least one of: a merchant identifier, product type, session identifier, client device identifier, timestamp.

15 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , wherein the first cookie comprises state data associated with at least one purchase selection of a user of the user account.

16 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 15 , wherein the first cookie comprises a timestamp associated with the at least one purchase selection, a merchant device associated with the at least one purchase selection, or a purchase status of the at least one purchase selection.

17 . The non-transitory computer readable medium of claim 11 , further cause the one or more processors to provide a preview window to facilitate viewing multiple states included in the first cookie, wherein the state data associated with first cookie comprises multiple states.

18 . A system comprising:
a memory; and a processor communicably coupled to the memory, wherein the processor is configured to configured to: provide a searchable interface for cookie states associated with a user account, wherein the cookie states correspond to at least one purchase selection; receive a search request for state data related to the cookie states of the user account, wherein the search request is provided by a first client device associated with the user account, the first client device being remote from the processor; receive a platform identifier associated with the user account and that is different from the first client device;
generate cookie state search results from a cookie database associated with the user account and the search request for state data;
transmit cookie state search results associated with the search request for state data;
receive a selection of a first cookie from the cookie state search results;
determine a load status of the first cookie; and
transmit a cookie response for the first cookie associated with the user account and the platform identifier to a merchant device remote from the persistent state server.

19 . The system of claim 18 , further cause the one or more processor to reload the first cookie, wherein the load status is available at the merchant device, and wherein the cookie response is a reloaded state response for the first cookie.

20 . The system of claim 18 , further cause the one or more processor to recreate the first cookie, wherein the load status is unavailable at
