A method for distributing data between mobile devices includes creating, by a processing device, a group comprising of mobile devices in an ad-hoc mode that share data. The mobile devices are located within a pre-defined range. The method also includes identifying, by the processing device, at least a portion of the data available for sharing in at least one of the mobile devices. The method also includes replicating, by the processing device, the identified data for distribution to the mobile devices. The method further includes distributing, by the processing device, the replicated data to the at least one of the mobile devices in the immediate mode when the at least one of the mobile devices is within the pre-defined range.
