This seems like a pretty cool project!

I am not very familiar with WiFi Direct, but my understanding was that Apple does not support it (as in: it will not be possible to communicate between iOS and Android using this plugin). Is that correct?

devtronic commented 5 years ago

You're right, iOS only supports something called MultipeerConnectivity. Maybe it's possible to use native WiFi functionality to connect both OS' (https://developer.apple.com/documentation/network)

Ok, thanks for the info!

There's any progress about this subject ?

JonasVautherin commented 4 years ago

I believe that Apple just does not play with the others on the WiFi-Direct matters (surprised? :trollface:). They have their own thing. What's probably possible is to have one smartphone create an AP and let the others connect to it. But that's not WiFi-Direct.

Hmmm.... a little bit complicated way.

agnoam commented 4 years ago

Is there no way to do something about it ?

JonasVautherin commented 4 years ago

Ask Apple to play with the others? :D

Ha ha ha 😂
