II. IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS

squares, hotels The application framework provides access to

the Bluetooth functionality through the Android
Bluetooth APIs. These APIs let applications
and other places. wirelessly connect to other Bluetooth devices,
enabling point-to-point and multipoint wireless
features. Using the Bluetooth APIs, an Android

The Bluetooth application can perform the following: Scan for

other Bluetooth devices, Query the local Bluetooth
adapter for paired Bluetooth devices, Establish

Chat RFCOMM channels, Connect to other devices

through service discovery, Transfer data to and
from other devices, Manage multiple connections.

III. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
connection.
2. Open standard short-range wireless
communication.
3. Bluetooth offers higher level service
profiles, such as FTP-like file servers,
voice transport, and more.
4. Innovative approach to the mobile
world.
5. No GSM or Wi-Fi connection required.
6. Bluetooth does not need a license
around the globe for the working
frequency band.
7. Low cost transmission technology for
the handheld device.
8. One of the most notable is its ease of
use. With Bluetooth, all these wires
disappear, saving the user the time that
would be spent trying to figure out how
to get all the devices connected.
9. When two Bluetooth devices come
within range of each other, they
automatically make a connection and
decide if there is any information that
needs to be passed, or if one needs to
control the other.
10. This reduces user interaction time, and
tasks can be accomplished more
efficiently..
 VI. DISADVANTAGES 6. Bluetooth is only used for small
1. Strangers can communicate with others amounts of data to be transferred at one
using Bluetooth devices. time
2. Blue jacking, refers to people who send
irrelevant, surprising, or shocking
messages to strangers in their vicinity. VII. CONCLUSION AND FUTURE SCOPE
3. Limited range to chat. This application would take the advantage of the
4. Low speed as compared to wired wide spread of the Android operating system via
technologies. varieties of devices. It is concerned with solving
5. Bluetooth is only capable of transferring some problems of communicating freely, securely,
at speeds of 1 Mbit/s silently and within small range. It is great for
making new friends in a library or chatting up
someone in crowded places. The application paves
the ground for more Bluetooth applications
