Systems, methods, and instrumentalities are disclosed to control an inter user equipment transfer (IUT). A first user equipment (UE) may control an inter user equipment transfer (IUT) associated with a communication flow currently terminated at the first UE. The first UE may receive an indication of an environment change. An evaluation of an IUT policy may be performed in response to the environment change. It may be determined that a second UE is preferred to receive the communication flow. An IUT operation may be performed in relation to the communication flow. For example, the communication flow may be transferred from the first UE to a second UE.
