AirDrop to implement for a app for detection

Question

Is there any documentation for AirDrop? I want to make an app that can be installed on multiple devices, and to be able to detect other devices that are running that app, I was thinking about AirDrop to do this part of detection. I would not want to use other solutions like bonjour. Thank you!

Answer 1

I recommend the Multipeer Connectivity Framework Reference

This framework allows peer-to-peer connections (similar to AirDrop) between an app installed on multiple devices and for data to be exchanged between them over the connection.

Answer 2

You can find examples on how to use the AirDrop API by searching for 'airdrop' in iOS Developer Library. Here is a link https://developer.apple.com/library/ios/samplecode/sc2273/Introduction/Intro.html
