Apple Classroom, what is Wi-Fi used for?

If I understand correctly, the communication between the teachers device and the student devices is BlueTooth. What is Wi-Fi used for? I've seen it listed as a requirement to have Wi-Fi turned on.

Thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities! I understand you're curious why Wi-Fi is needed with Classroom.


The following article from the Classroom User Guide helps to outline how having specific ports open will allow for document sharing and Classroom app communication: Classroom infrastructure requirements for teacher-created classes - Apple Support
