This library is not working in Android Version 12 or more upgrade version, when i am calling this method startDiscoveringPeers() getting the error in console {"code": 0, "message": "Operation failed due to an internal error."}.Please try to resolve this.and also getting the error while searchinf devices that "Something is gone wrong. Maybe your WiFi is disabled? Error details: [object Object]".

@Suyashbajpai27 can you attach adb logs? Typically before "Operation failed due to an internal error." Android will log an actual reason why it failed.

@Suyashbajpai27 looks like you didn't ask for permissions?

I am not getting this ,can you please explain , actually i already gave him permissions.

<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_COARSE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_FINE_LOCATION"/>
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.ACCESS_WIFI_STATE"/>
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.CHANGE_WIFI_STATE"/>    
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE" />
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.READ_EXTERNAL_STORAGE"/> 
<uses-permission android:required="true" android:name="android.permission.NEARBY_WIFI_DEVICES" />

@Suyashbajpai27 Starting from Android 6 it's not sufficient to simply declare permissions in AndroidManfest.xml - you need to ask permission in runtime. I wrote about it here: https://github.com/kirillzyusko/react-native-wifi-p2p?tab=readme-ov-file#caveats

The best way would be to use react-native-permissions library and ask additional permissions: https://github.com/zoontek/react-native-permissions

Samples of the code can be found in the link https://github.com/kirillzyusko/react-native-wifi-p2p/issues/59

Thank you so much for this but now i am getting issue while using cancelConnect() , then i am getting error "Something gone wrong. Details: {"code": 2, "message": "Operation failed because the framework is busy and unable to service the request."}", Can you please help me to get out of this?

Please, open a new issue and attach logcat logs 🙏

Okay sure
