Turning on the option to receive beamed
information
By default, the option to receive beamed
information on your smartphone is turned
off. You need to turn the beam option on
before you can receive information being
beamed from another device.
TIP
For best results, the path between the
two devices must be clear of obstacles, and
both devices kept stationary. If you have
difficulty beaming, shorten the distance and
avoid bright sunlight.

appears as a question mark (see S
