Background Android phones supporting Wi-Fi Aware 4.0 should be able to connect with iPhones (iOS 26). For testing, we selected two Samsung S25 devices, which support Wi-Fi Aware 4.0. Issues we are facing Android as Publisher, iOS as Subscriber.iOS cannot discover the service. Log shows: Discovery: Dropping event, 02:14:60:76:a6:0f missing DCEA attribute. iOS as Publisher, Android as Subscriber,Android can discover the service.However, the PIN code is not displayed on iOS. From the packet capture, the publish packet does not contain the DCEA field. However, Android-to-Android devices can still pair normally, and the subsequent PASN packets include the DCEA field. It seems that the Wi-Fi Alliance only requires the DCEA to be present in the PASN packets. iOS cannot discover Android devices or complete pairing — is this caused by the DCEA field, or by other reasons?

The user has already enabled local network permissions. However, when I use nw_connection_t for a local network TCP connection, nw_path_unsatisfied_reason returns nw_path_unsatisfied_reason_local_network_denied. The system logs also indicate a lack of local network permissions. This is an intermittent bug that typically occurs after uninstalling and reinstalling the app. Restarting the app does not help, toggling permissions on and off does not work, and uninstalling and reinstalling the app also fails to resolve the issue. Restarting the phone is the only solution, meaning users can only fix it by rebooting their device.
