How does this work? Does it create a WiFi network or do both users need to have a common WiFi network? For example, if I’m out in the woods and took a picture of an elusive mink, do I need to unpack a wifi router, set up a network, share the details with a person, hope they can join the network, then go through the authentication game in LocalSend?
