Hi all, I am one of the founders of Bump Technologies, the company
behind the Bump app on Android.

Bump does not allow users to share paid apps for free. All we do is
share a link to the App Market so your friend can find the app (and
hopefully purchase it) easier.  Our goal was to make it easier to tell
your friends about your favorite apps, this way they don't have to
search the App Market.

Try it! :-)
