This is something we have definitely been considering as a feature or add-on to Orbot - essentially mobile-to-mobile file sharing, messaging/voice messaging via hidden services. While we don't need a very complex p2p design (in short, we are mostly just talking about simple HTTP servers running on each device, behind a hidden service .onion), I am concerned in the long run about scalability and reliability of this. It is not unheard of for apps that work well and do something cool to suddently have 1M+ users, and already are nearing half that with Orbot.
