My Suggestion and Request on Blue Pair by Donato Rimenti

Open source on GitHub | Download app

**

Components

The current features of the app are the following:

• A simple app for handling Bluetooth discovery and pairing. This project is open-source. The code is distributed under MIT license.
• Can send and receive files like images, videos, recording, music, documents and the like.

Proposal

After my exploration, I would like to suggest the following:

• Add a “Setting Icon” for each paired blue pair devices.
  In the setting icon, add a “rename device” button, an “unpair” button and “date paired” button.
• Add “help” button just like FAQS about problems encountered by the app , and instructional mode perhaps.

Mockups / Examples

These are the edited photos of my suggestions:

Benefits

Here are the benefits once my proposal for the components/parts/sections of the software will be implemented and solved:

• With the help of the “setting icon”, the users can modify the functions of each paired device.
• By clicking the rename device, the users can change/rename the name of his paired device. Eventually this will happen if the name of the paired device is not so familiar to the user or the paired name itself does not identify the owner of the blue pair device (example: the name of the owner is Jhairah but her blue pair name is xoasdxos143 ), so the user will have a hard time of which he/she will send the file. So, in order to avoid that scenario, the users will change the name of that paired device into that something he/she can associate to the owner. Thus, the rename device is helpful.
• When there are so many paired devices already and the users cannot add another device anymore, the user will just have to click the unpair button and he/she will be unpaired by that certain device and automatically there will be a new slot for new device. Another instance is that when the user feels/thinks that he/she will not have any other transactions to that current paired device or have no use anymore, he/she can unpair it right away.
  -With the “date paired” button, users will be able to stay on track about the time/date in which the transaction happened.
• With the “help” button, users can check out the FAQS or issues that they encountered just like why can’t we pair?, why I can see the other device? And the like.

With all my suggestions, I believe this app could be much better.
