TRANSFER APPS VIA BLUETOOTH ON ANDROID

Android is yet another revolution in itself which dared to change the entire mobile scenario – converting the mobile from a communication device to the music player, a handy and cheap PlayStation, a small screened laptop and much more! Android has much to offer today that Google play store looks loaded with new apps every other day! With so many apps emerging daily, the craze of having each one is quiet obvious. But not all are still able to enjoy the privilege of having them. Reason being that one requires an active internet connection to download and install them.

My friend just downloaded a 31mb app, and, guess what, downloading so much over mobile data connection takes a long time! Why to worry when you can do eth same within minutes via Bluetooth? Amazed? Yes, transferring apps via Bluetooth is not possible for some, but it is a walk in park for others. You can easily do that by two wonderful apps: Astro and Bluetooth transfer app! Here’s how!
