iOS talk to Android and vice versa?

Open Sford4 opened this issue 3 years ago • 14 comments

Not an issue, just a question, will this library allow for iOS devices to talk peer-to-peer with Android devices and vice versa? Is there an example that accounts for this?

Thanks, great work guys!

The library can't make a connection between Android and IOS

@VNAPNIC Thank you for the reply! Is there any plan to do so in the future, or is this a technical limitation that can't be overcome?

Thanks again

I think to connect both platforms, should using wifi p2p

@VNAPNIC That's wonderful! I'll start making my app now, I hope you can get the cross-platform improvement up soon, thanks for all your hard work!

@Sford4 were you successful connecting iOS and Android together using wifi p2p?

I interpreted @VNAPNIC 's last comment to mean that the package currently cannot accomplish this, but he plans to update the package in the near future to allow connecting iOS and Android together using wifi p2p.

Is that correct, @VNAPNIC ?

Well, I tried it and it was not working for me. I tinkered around it for 1 hour and I did not get it working.

Hi @VNAPNIC, has there been any progress in this area?

We appreciate all your hard work, thank you!

Hi,

I'm facing the same "issue" but in my case I don't need to establish a connection between the two devices, I'm just using this lib to advertise users using the same app nearby by passing a custom ID to the deviceName parameter.

While it's working perfectly on Android / Android or iOS / iOS, I'd like Android devices to be able to see iOS ones and vice versa, but I don't need to establish a connection between Android & iOS. Does anyone have an idea? I've already tried to switch to Stategy.Wi_Fi_P2P, doesn't seems to do the trick.

Thanks

@VNAPNIC I'd like to implement a cross platform app and that would be great if Android and iOS devices could talk to each other. Maybe is there any plan to implement this feature in the near future?
