Authentication: remember me across multiple devices and session management.

Hello! I am completely new to Laravel and I must say I really like it. I am doing my very first experiments and decided to start with a complete authentication and registration system to use in some of my projects. Of course I started with the one provided in Laravel 5.2, then added a throttling protection for password recovery (which was missing) and now I am currently working in integrating socialite to establish a registration and authentication flow integrated with the local user system. I am now writing here because I am completely stuck with a problem. I see Laravel has a "remember me" option but I really don't like it. It works across multiple devices but when I logout from one of those it logouts everywhere plus it doesn't let me see where I am currently authenticated. I would like to work on something like Facebook session management which lets you know where you have active sessions, when those were open or last used and grants you the chance to suppress them. Where do I start? is there something out there which I couldn't find? Thanks!
