In short: A little janky but works great. Purchased a new phone last year. Since then my hotspot doesn't work with my very old kindle hdx (it only has wireless g or something). This makes it a pain to get new books while on road trips. Wifi direct isn't enabled for file sharing on my phone, bluetooth isn't enabled on the hdx (lineage os is experimental), and I ran out of options. This app cleared it up for me so I have a lifeline on the go.

Initially, it worked great. Now, it'll see everything except what I'm trying to connect with until this phone is selected from the other device first. Unfortunately, the accept connection message never displays on this phone for this app now. Perhaps both devices shouldn't have to accept the connection, with the one receiving being the one to accept.

Creates a folder on device called "wifi_direct_files" which will only be visible on Android if you switch folder view settings from "essentials" to "all". This is important because if you uninstall the app, the folder and its contents will be invisible taking up space on your phone. A progression bar on the phone that is receiving files would also be nice. Large files often transfer but are incomplete, and the end of the file is missing as reported by the file size. Bluetooth is not required.

When I registered for this app, it required credit card info, even though it was a free app. After cc info entered, next screen has a box already checked to sign up for some kind of mobile entertainment package that was $39.99 a month. I unchecked the box but I'm very suspicious & worried about charges. I should not have entered cc info.

This app does a great job of connecting to Wi-Fi Direct for you and allows files or folders to be sent or received fast to either device. Just make sure you don't have airplane mode turned on and make sure your Wi-Fi is on. I couldn't get Hifi | WiFi Direct File Share app to work properly on one of my devices which uses Pie. I'm glad I discovered WiFi Direct +. Just tap either | Select Files | or | Select Folder | (buttons) and follow the instructions about double tapping a folder to select it.

Tried 4.5 Gigs of pictures in folder. No progress bar. No indication of speed. No idea when it will be finished. Lost contact 3 times. Screen flashes constantly as long as small pictures are transfered. After restart, app spends ages 'flashing' through existing pictures. I gave up after 1.5 hours. I couldn't use Phone Clone for this task but just to show how WiFi Direct really works: 18Giga transfered in ca. 30 mins. Also messes up Sonys 'Album' by giving all pictures today's date. A real mess.
