@DTS Engineer @ppix @danielvandrunen-fl I strongly request that macOS supports Wi-Fi Aware

@DTS Engineer @DTS Engineer @juraj @mikeKane Mac computers need support for Wi-Fi Aware

yes,iOS 26 supports Wi-Fi Aware

@DTS Engineer To the best of my knowledge, one of the Android developers can achieve successful Apple-Android pairing via Wi-Fi Aware. I strongly recommend that Apple provide a demo for Android-to-Apple file transfer via Wi-Fi Aware.

@DTS Engineer @Bojie_Lv @liyang123 @pandarisearch Two FB is proposed： FB19568037 FB19570341 If possible, please reach out to Dr. Swetank from the Apple Wi‑Fi Aware team — we urgently need his help!

@DTS Engineer @Bojie_Lv @liyang123 @pandarisearch After Apple-to-Apple pairing is completed, the paired device will be recorded in “Settings → Privacy & Security → Paired Devices”. However, after Android-to-Apple pairing is completed, the device is not saved to this list. Android device can be normally displayed on the Apple official Wi-Fi Aware Sample. However, the indicator is not green. During pairing, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingSetupSucceeded. During pairing verification, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingVerificationSucceed. My iPhone is iPhone 13， iOS 26.0 （23A5287g）

Our goal is to establish a Wi‑Fi Aware data path (NDP) between Apple and Android devices. Apple will act as the Publisher, and Android will act as the Subscriber. Apple-to-Android pairing has already been completed. The Android device can be normally displayed on the Apple official Wi-Fi Aware Sample. However, the indicator is not green. During pairing, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingSetupSucceeded. During pairing verification, the Apple log shows: state: authenticated, and the Android side triggers the callback onPairingVerificationSucceed. The Android side sends an NDP request to Apple (as shown in the figure 1), but Apple does not reply. Note: Qualcomm’s NDI and NMI are different. In addition, after Apple-to-Apple pairing is completed, the paired device will be recorded in “Settings → Privacy & Security → Paired Devices”. However, after Android-to-Apple pairing is completed, the device is not saved to this list. My iPhone model: iPhone 13, iOS 26.0 (23A5287g).

During the process of establishing a NAN data path between Android and Apple, why doesn’t Apple respond to the NDP response?

@pandarisearch Android as subscriber In Android's onServiceDiscovered callback, execute initateBootstrappingRequest. In Android's OnBootstrappingSucceded callback, execute initatePairingRequest.

@Bojie_Lv @DTS Engineer In Apple’s NAN peer database, the NMI of a successfully paired peer is stored as the identification marker. However, in Android and Qualcomm’s implementation, the NDI and NMI are different. As shown in the figure, Apple’s code may fail to recognize Android’s NDI, which could lead to no NDP response being sent.

@DTS Engineer I apologize for the urgency and any inconvenience caused. Could you please help me track FB19683706? If this issue cannot be resolved, I may lose my job. Thank you very much for your kind assistance.

@DTS Engineer @Bojie_Lv In Feedback Assistant, there is a question: "Which area are you experiencing the problem in? I chose Wi‑Fi. Could it be an issue with Wi‑Fi Aware, and should I ask about it in the Wi‑Fi section?"

@DTS Engineer Is the iOS 26.0 Universal Simulator（23A5308g） required to be downloaded? macOS 15.5, Xcode 26.0b5
