I am building an app that can transfer a photo and bundle data to another persons phone that has the app.
The person would be close by, basically face to face.
In a perfect world I would like the process of file transfer to be less than 3 steps but I think that would be too much to ask for.
I am trying to figure out ways to do it but I keep coming up with blanks for every way I was thinking. Here are my thoughts on different ideas:
1. Bluetooth (Easier to code, more steps for the user)
2. NFC (No idea how to implement and test)
3. Wifi Direct (Still has steps but less than Bluetooth, just learned about it today so I am new to it)
4. Connect to a Server (Make a server and connect devices)
5. HTTP (Make a temporary server on your phone?)
If any of you could help me on which method to use and a good example that would be greatly appreciated!
