I am interested in developing an iPhone application that creates ad-hoc networks between iPhones.
Is such an application feasible?
I am a novice with iPhone development, so I apologise in advance for my naiivety.
Thanks

Make sure that your device (the one sharing the password) is unlocked and connected to the Wi-Fi network. Select the Wi-Fi network on the device you want to connect. On your device, tap Share Password, then tap Done.
You can use Personal Hotspot to share a cellular internet connection from your iPhone to other devices. Personal Hotspot is useful when the other devices don't have internet access from a Wi-Fi network.
From your Home screen, go to Settings > Wi-Fi. Turn on Wi-Fi. Your device will automatically search for available Wi-Fi networks. Tap the name of the Wi-Fi network that you want to join.
To use 4G for both voice calls and mobile data, press 4G, VoLTE On. You can use 4G for voice calls via the mobile network for a faster and better connection. To use 4G for mobile data only, press 4G, VoLTE Off. To turn off use of 4G, press 3G.
In iPhone OS 3.0, Bluetooth is used to create an ad-hoc network and has been developed for this purpose.
Here is some documentation.

On a side note, there are some games that use the current access point and scan the subnet that they are on and find other listening clients. Then they create a game that way.
