Local EPG distribution is something we are thinking about at the Enigma level, so that instead of having to duplicate EPG, you just have one box that serves as "EPG server", a bit similar to the fallback tuner mechanism.
Currently all enigma2 boxes are "aware" of other boxes in the local network, they know when other boxes are active. I just haven't found the time to have it do anything useful with that knowledge... All network stuff is based on IP4 addresses while the awareness works on name basis.
I'm told that Apple also uses the same mechanism, so Apple devices should "discover" E2 boxes (the web interface at least) automatically. Dunno if that actually works, don't have any Aplle thingy.
It doesn't work for Android because Google in its infinite wisdom has avahi up and running on the phone but did not link it to local name resolution, so apps must explicitly query avahi if they want to use it, which of course none of the apps ever do.
