Android Question Sharing data between phones/tablets w/o a server

[DickD]

Basic question: How do I share data (in an SQLite DB) directly between 2 phones or tablets running my app without using a server? Does this involve Bluetooth, WIFI, RDC? This doesn't necessarily have to involve SQLite, any other storage method is acceptable.

I guess another aspect of this is ... can you run a server on a phone/tablet that other phones can connect to directly?

Give me an idea where to start looking... if this is even possible.

Hi,

You can check:

And you can exchange data and then store in SQLite Db

Thanks, already have a basic Bluetooth connection working. The tutorial was very helpful. What I don't get yet is how to read from a SQLite table on the other phone/tablet.

HI...

You have to implement a "small" protocol... you send the data and when you read you access the database

This is an important example related to sending data between two devices: Network + AsyncStreams + B4XSerializator
