B Base Member Licensed User Longtime User Jan 2, 2012 #1 Hi all. I have a general question concerning chat like apps. I am wondering how i can retrieve a peers (ip)address. How does that work with Whatsapp? Do you always need a 'server in the middle' which stores (ip) addresses based on a username or is there an other way to do this? Does android market supply this kind of service (a server which we can use to store the ip addresses)? Thanks for all information. Base
