1. A computer-implemented method, comprising:
- receiving a request at a messaging application on a mobile device, the request originating at a remote web browser, the request for the remote web browser to receive messaging updates from the messaging application, the messaging application associated with a first user account with a messaging service;
initiating a local web server at the mobile device in response to receiving the request, the local web server in communication with the local messaging application;
establishing an encrypted connection between the local web server and the remote web browser;
receiving a messaging update at the messaging application;
transmitting the messaging update from the messaging application to the remote web browser; and
wherein a second messaging update is received by the local web server, from the remote web browser, and relayed to the local messaging application by the local web server.
