I like your app and ESP library. I'd like to use it to control a rc car. But do I understand correctly that for this to work, a WiFi router network has to be available?
How could I use this outside? Is it possible to let the esp8266 create a AP, and have the phone connected to that AP instead of to a router? Or could it work by creating a WiFi hotspot on the phone, and have to ESP connect to that?
Thanks for all your work!

I answered my own question by just giving it a try.
Flashed an ESP with the example sketch. Made a hotspot on my phone using the same ssid and password as in the example sketch. It connected and received an ip which it printed out to the serial monitor. Entered the ip in the Android app, and voila: Works!
So it can also be used outside of the home WiFi! Very nice!
Did notice a little (unrelated) bug though. I'll open a new 'issue' for it.
