Apple is working an improvement to AirPlay that would drop the requirement of a Wi-Fi network, according to a report from The Telegraph.
The new version will require just speakers or a hifi and an iDevice; the iPhone, iPod or iPad would form its own network to allow a direct connection and music playback. The move is expected to be announced at the launch of the new iPhone, which is widely rumoured to take place on September 12.
The feature is being called 'AirPlay Direct'; however, this is a working title and may be changed before release. Apple will reportedly push the technology alongside its shift to a smaller dock connector.
