Wi-Fi Direct isn’t a new feature to BlackBerry 10, in fact it has been available since OS 10.2 but we haven’t actually shown it in action here to CrackBerry yet, so there’s no time like the present to do so. After all, you might be new to the BlackBerry 10 OS and didn’t realise this was something you could do. I’ve actually started using it more as I recently got hold of a BlackBerry Leap and usually I use NFC to transfer photos and files between my devices but since the Leap does not have NFC, I’ve had to find other ways and W-iFi Direct was the next best thing.
