S Beam
S Beam uses your phone’s NFC (Near Field Communication)
to send, or “beam”, content to other NFC and Wi-Fi Direct
devices, by holding the devices close together.
S Beam works in the background. Use the sharing options
from your favorite apps to select content to share via
S Beam. For example, you can beam pictures or videos from
Gallery, or songs from Music player. Just bring the devices
together (typically back-to-back), then tap the screen.

content with other Wi-Fi Direct devices. For more
