Hi, I'm searching for an application, that can enable file sharing on android devices over wifi, just like the bluetooth, or a method like one device is a wifi hotspot and other is client and an app which can read other devices sd card contents and allow uploading and downloading from one device to another. Is application like that available or this method technically possible? I had some issues with different android devices, that were not able to send/receive files through bluetooth, or a file was too big to send through this protocol. Any answer would be great full.

Thank you raj2sudha, I've tried both apps and are working! Also I tried setting one device as wifi hotspot and instaled wifi file explorer on it. Idea was to manage files through web browser if I don't have any wifi router in range, but somehow it wouldn't work. Thanks again!
