Q: Android phone Bluetooth to my iPad via Bluetooth connection ?

hi, I can't seem to send anything from my android Samsung Galaxy fame to my mini iPad via Bluetooth , it just keeps saying no connection but I always have it turned on on both devices, is it just that it is not possible to do this or is there something that I need to do to make this work?

iPad Mini, iOS 8.1.2
