1. A method as implemented by an augmented or virtual reality (AR/VR) hub separate from a companion device and an AR/VR device separate from the companion device, the method comprising:
communicating, by the AR/VR hub, AR/VR data to the AR/VR device to cause rendering of an AR/VR environment of an AR/VR application by the AR/VR device;
receiving, by the AR/VR hub from the companion device, a request corresponding to companion data that corresponds to the AR/VR application; and
responsive to receiving the request from the companion device, communicating, by the AR/VR hub, the companion data to the companion device, the companion data configured to cause the companion device to generate a companion user interface configured to display an AR/VR scene of the AR/VR environment that is concurrently rendered at the AR/VR device and a visual control that overlays the AR/VR scene of the AR/VR environment that is displayed by the companion user interface, the visual control being associated with purchasing, using the companion device, an item displayed on the AR/VR scene.
