Do you know if you have to be on the same wifi network for this to work, like with AirDrop?

AirDrop doesn't require you to be on the same wifi network, or even for the devices to have internet access. I use it to toss files from my Macbook to my (completely offline) iPad regularly.

It's backed by iCloud so I assume it would work across networks.
