WiFi Aware is similar to Apple Wireless Direct, which is famously used in AirDrop. WiFi aware is introduced in the Android 8.0 (API level 26) or higher operating systems. However, it's up to the manufacturer to enable WiFi Aware at the firmware level.
This means that you may have a device like a OnePlus 5T running Android 10 but WiFi Aware is still unavailable.
Run this app and quickly find out if WiFi Aware is available on your device. WiFi Aware is an upcoming supported transport at Ditto
