That sounds like a hotspot with extra steps, what does it do differently?
It can do multi-hop. It can also automatically authenticate across any number of phones, sort of like how radius works with fixed wifi (android hotspots don't support radius - you can only connect with radius as a client). You can also earn money from sharing your internet.
