Sharing large files between Android devices without internet is uninteresting and time-consuming task. Bluetooth is used to transfer music, photos and other files between Android devices, transferring small files with Bluetooth doesn’t take much time but when files are as large as few gigabytes, it may take a couple of hours to transfer files with Bluetooth. WiFi Direct comes into picture and permit transfer speed of 2-3 Mbps. WiFi Direct is used for sharing files since the greater part of the apps require coding to handle the file transfer operation. In any case, there are a couple of apps that take advantage of WiFi Direct to transfer large files through WiFi in just minutes.
