By "in local network" I mean: "Devices within the same multicast and unicast domain"

Hi, Thanks for your quick reply. I will look into Network framework instead of GCDAsyncSocket. But the main question/problem is still remain which is that how to implement peer to peer communication between iOS and Android devices in local network. Thanks

I have already implemented Bonjour with GCDAsyncSocket to make communication between client and server for selected services, it works fine. Yes, Bonjour is cross platform and will use separate Bonjour and TCP/IP APIs for different platforms. But I want to also make peer to peer communication in local network with cross platform connectivity technology(Apple and android). I tired to achieve this by bonjour but did not get succeed on it. Yes, Bonjour does not work in terms of devices but rather in terms of services. So is there any other way to achieve peer to peer communication for Apple and Android platform(cross platform). Thanks

Yes, I checked "Multipeer Connectivity" but I need peer to peer connectivity between iOS and Android which supports cross platform connectivity. "Multipeer Connectivity" only available in iOS. Can anyone please guide me how can be this possible? Thanks
