With what do u think xender uses, mobile network? It would even create /serve as/a hotspot for the receiving phone.

Did you understand my post?

is it the same thing as cast screen? my infinix zero two has a feature called cast screen and I don't know what it's all about. Each time I try it, it says no nearby device found. if they are not the same, please who knows what the cast screen is all about should tell me

As far as I am concerned, Hotknot is one of the most useless technology of this present era. It is just like saying bring back Infrared. When my Bluetooth and WiFi can handle data transfer easier and from distance, what will I then be doing with Hotknot.

I have never used my Hotknot before and I don't intend using it. I only used it as test the first time the technology started coming into phones

Sweetheart they are not the same, read up the use of your cast screen feature and how you too can use it. I bet it will interest you to know

The tech is called WIFI direct

You can mostly find NFC function on high end smart phone .

NFC isn't what sends the data files & co , WiFi direct does. NFC justs makes identification easier eg touch 2 devices to send a file.

and stop making it sound like this is new.
my old Samsung S3(years back) could do this out of the box

You should calm down when you are being corrected of what you don't know . so if I am sending a file through NFC TO NFC Communincation the WIFI direct I toggled OFF will eventually toggle ON or secretly be working in background aiding the NFC transmission ?.


Yes , this is not a new knowledge and it's no rocket science .NFC ,BLUETHOOT ,WIFI work independently . I stand to be corrected .

Why don't you ask yourself why it is necessary to maintain a close proximity between the transmitter and the reciever before and during the communication. Except you are telling me WIFI direct required a too close proximity .

It reminds me of infrared trans. The major difference is that hoktnot is faster

My point is NFC doesn't transfer heavy files , WIFI direct does.
it will only transfer small size file within a short range as u mentioned, a combo of NFC & WIFI direct is the reason u can send large files with it.

NFC alone will be slow like infrared, for large files it performs like a hand over to WIFI direct or probably Bluetooth.

Too many file sharing apps these days.
Each smartphone brand wants to own their own.

Hotknot is luxury. Xender is better for now.

Do you know you can control your laptop with your phone through Bluetooth?
