(Question) Android iOS interop? #1

Closed mglsj closed 8 months ago

Not an issue but a question

Does this support connections between iOS and Android devices?

Hello, unfortunately no This is a limitation of Multipeer Connectivity on iOS, we cannot get the device address on the network. So we cannot create a custom socket for communication without device addresses

Hi, I think it could be possible with Google's nearby connections on iOS. https://developers.google.com/nearby/connections/overview. (I don't have enough knowledge of Flutter otherwise would have made a PR)
