Bluetooth tethering

I have Quectel M66 modem which is bluetooth enabled. I need some hints about how can I provide internet to my embedded device (which has M66 as a peripheral) using Android or iOS, or other device which supports bluetooth tethering.

I believe Android has that feature by default. Take a look at this link:

I believe you can just approach the tethering device as a wifi acces point following the above guide.

This link sheds some light on choosing what tethering approach is appropriate:

My initial thought was "why would you want to tether through Bluetooth?" but looking at the power consumption, it might be a good choice for an embedded system, or if Wi-Fi is not available on the board.
