<p>It should actually be simpler than using mDNS. To share a
drawing between any number of iPads, you can do the following:<br>
1) Enable sharing for the drawing (tap the sync "chasing arrows"
button then turn the "Enable Sharing toggle on". This will
establish a URL for that document. 2) While still in the sharing
popup, select one of the options to send the URL to another: *
Invite via Email * Invite via iMessage * Copy sharing link (which
you can then send to someone else via email, IM, or whatever method
you like)</p>
<p>If you send the URL to someone, they can then open the drawing
either in a web browser (for a read-only, but still with zooming
and streaming updates, view) or by tapping the "Edit in SyncSpace"
link on the web page.</p>
<p>Once sharing is enabled for an open drawing it will appear in
the "Nearby" tab in SyncSpace on someone else's iPad if they are on
the same local network and mDNS/Rendezvous isn't blocked. This
method will only discover drawings that are currently open and that
are discoverable on your local network. Please note that mDNS in
this case is only used to broadcast the existence of a shared
drawing. All syncing actually goes through the drawing's URL.</p>
<p>Please let me know if this doesn't fully answer the question.
Also, if you find SyncSpace useful, please consider rating it on
the app store so that others can find it.</p>
<p>Thanks!<br>
