Does exactly as promised, the best out there
After trying several other Bluetooth file-sharing apps, this is the one. The only reason I was a little hesitant to give it 5 stars was because it could use a little better "help section". I had to fumble around a little to get it to do what I thought it was meant to do, but once I figured it out, it was fantastic.
No more need to buy a 3-G enabled iPad. When there is no WiFi available, just transfer the file I want to go to 3G to my iPhone, then send it to Drop-Box or whatever over my phone's 3G connection!
This program is able to use the device's "file share widget" to share files with other widget enabled programs such as FileAppPro, DocsToGo, and QuickOffice. It's also able to then share these same files with other iOS devices (I connected my iPhone4 with my iPad3). The trick is figuring out how to connect the two iOS devices.
Here is how I was able to use this app to transfer files from my iPhone to my iPad:
1. I had Bluetooth-U installed and running in the foreground on both devices.
2. I clicked onto the "Connect" button on both devices.
3. I waited for both devices to show that they had "found" one another.
4. On my iPhone, I clicked on: "Connect to iPad".
5. On my iPad I waited until the option "Accept connection to iPhone", appeared and I then clicked on, "Accept".
6. On my iPad, I held down my finger over the name of the file I wanted to transfer, until the popup menu appeared.
7. On that popup menu, I selected the option, "Transfer file via Bluetooth" appeared.
8. I clicked on that option, and Walaa! Transfer accomplished!!
If only they would create a "Help Option" and insert instructions like this in their help section, I think they would do much better.
Once I saw that this is a well written app, and does what I wanted it to do, I went ahead and upgraded to pro to get rid of the pesky ads. It was well worth it.
Thanks Bluetooth-U for the excellent program.

Great App!
took a little bit of playing around but it worked, was able to transfer my pics easily. Thanks!
Works great!
After installing on both devices(iphone5 and ipad3) and connecting - transfers went fast. I was able to transfer docs from my drop box folder(via "open in" feature)-from drop box app. It's a several step process that is not explained anywhere. Would give it 5 stars if it had some worthwhile help. Free version seems fine.

Useless
Basically useless.
This app is a life saver!! Best Bluetooth transfer app!
Who needs a 3 or 4g iPad when you have your iPhone? Download anywhere with your iPhone and transfer to your iPad, this thing has saved me so many times. Could benefit from some sort of instructions I suppose, but only took me about 5 minutes to figure out how to use every single feature. People are just dumb and lazy and can't figure things out for themselves ;) if you use your iPad on the go, and wish you had Internet when you don't... You need this app!!!!
The best way to use it is from within whatever other app, click open with Bluetooth-u, it will add the file to the Bluetooth-u library, then you can easily transfer.

No Help
No instructions included. Not intuitive. Just a platform for selling extensions and apps.
