The Bluetooth app thing is just an example of LLMs helping me build something I don't have beyond-basics knowledge of.

For other stuff, I still find it very useful because why would I bother to code something non-novel when I can just tell the LLM what I need?

For example, if I need a code that finds the device that given characteristics belongs(bluetooth stuff, again) to I can just tell the LLM to write it for me. It doesn't take a genius to write such a code, its elemental stuff and I would rather not spend my working memory on remembering the structures and names of variables. I copy+paste the current class that handles the bluetooth comms, tell it that I need a function for sending data to the printer and it gives me back the result. There's no art in writing such a code, its standard code for an API and I would prefer not to bother with it.
