is currentUser logged in different device

This is a simple question, is there a Parse format for checking if the user is already logged in, in a different device?

I'm aware I can manually do this, updating objects, registering devices and using pointers etc etc, just wondering if there is a simple API workaround or an easier alternative someone has creatively utilized?

Yes there is. They announced sessions in the latest Facebook conference. You need a basic find or count query in Session class:

var query = PFSession.query()!
query.findObjectsInBackgroundWithBlock{ (objects: [AnyObject]?, error: NSError?) -> Void in
    if error != nil {
        println(error!)
    } else {
        if let sessions = objects {
            println(sessions)
        }
    } 
}

Note that you don't need to add query.whereKey("user", equalTo: currentUser). Because the query will only return the sessions of the current user due to the ACL set on the session object. The session object is something like: 

createdWith =     {
    action = signup;
    authProvider = anonymous;
};
expiresAt = "2016-04-14 13:43:53 +0000";
installationId = "...";
restricted = 0;
sessionToken = "...";
user = "<PFUser: 0x7fc990681120, objectId: yoELURj4i8>";
