SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR CONNECTING A PUBLIC DEVICE TO A PRIVATE DEVICE WITHOUT PRE-INSTALLED CONTENT MANAGEMENT APPLICATIONS

Systems and methods for providing access to media content by connecting, to a public device, a private device that does not have an installed application associated with the media content. A media guidance application may receive a communication from a private device requesting to access content using the public device. In response, the media guidance application may retrieve, at the public device, a public interface application and private interface application from a content provider of the content. The private interface application, which may be configured to control a graphical user interface of the public interface application, may then be transmitted to the private device. Accordingly, the user may be able to access content via the public device when the private device is within a predetermined proximity to the public device.
