Wi-Fi Direct

Wi-Fi Direct is a standard that allows devices to connect to each other directly via Wi-Fi, without a Wi-Fi network or hotspot, and without having to set up the connection. This type of connection is commonly called peer-to-peer.

For example, your device can use Wi-Fi Direct to share photos, contacts and other content with other Wi-Fi Direct devices. Many of the apps on your device provide options for

sharing via Wi-Fi Direct under Menu.
