What are you trying to accomplish? You can AirPlay or homeshare but those use wifi rather than Bluetooth. The remote app is dependent on homeshare but uses wifi not bluetooth.

iPad, iPad mini. iPad 2 or later for AirPlay Mirroring.

What version is your ATV?
It sounds like AirPlay is not enabled on ATV, or it's not on the same wifi network as your iPad.

Hello Mandorathan,
If you're still having trouble after reviewing the docs, please post more detail on what you do and what doesn't happen.
