    Abstract: A wireless device configured to selectively enable and disable functionality when another wireless device that is paired to it is set to enable and disable functionality is provided. The wireless device can mirror the settings of a paired device such that when the paired device is set to airplane mode, the wireless device can automatically be set to airplane. Furthermore, when the airplane mode is disabled in the paired device, the wireless device can automatically disable its own airplane mode.

    Abstract: This relates to a method of sending data, such as documents, notifications, alerts, and messages, from a first wireless device to a second wireless device through a wireless connection, such as WiFi, when the limitations of Bluetooth capabilities are exceeded. The method of sending data can include, for example, the first wireless device storing the data on a remote server in a cloud computing system, and the second wireless device accessing the stored data from the remote server. The wireless devices can be configured to detect when another wireless device is out of physical range, when there are too many devices sharing the connection, if the environmental conditions are unsuitable, or if a device has powered down, for example. Additionally, the user or application may require a higher data transfer rate or a more secure connection.
