In order to connect with other users, the partners’ handhelds must meet the 
following criteria:

Each handheld must include Bluetooth technology and be within 30 feet of each 
other.

The Bluetooth preferences on each handheld must be set so that Bluetooth 
communication is on and the handheld is discoverable.

Each handheld must have BlueBoard installed.

Each handheld can’t be running a different Bluetooth application.

To connect with partners as a host:

1.

Tap Share.

If you are using BlueBoard for the first time, BlueBoard discovers all potential 
partners within range and displays their names on the Select Partners screen. 

If you’ve already collaborated using BlueBoard, a list of recent partners from 
previous BlueBoard sessions is displayed on the Select Partners screen. 
BlueBoard stores the names of the ten most recent partners with whom you’ve 
collaborated. 

2.

Select partner(s) with whom you want to collaborate by selecting the check box 
next to the device name(s) on the Select Partners screen. You can select up to 
three partners. If you do not see the partners with whom you wish to 
collaborate, tap Find More to refresh the partner list with all of the potential 
BlueBoard partners within range.
