Connect to another device using Wi-Fi Direct
On the BlackBerry device that you want to connect to, on the Wi-Fi settings screen, the Wi-Fi Direct tab must be selected.
To connect to another type of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED device, view the documentation for that device.
Wi-Fi Direct can allow your device to connect to other BlackBerry devices without using access points or a router so you
can share files, such as media files, without an Internet connection.
Note: Although you can use Wi-Fi Direct to connect your device to other types of Wi-Fi CERTIFIED devices, apps on your
device might not be able to share files with other devices.
