The Arduino IoT Cloud is a powerful platform that can help you with setting up your own IoT devices within minutes.

It just got even more powerful with the addition of a new feature - to let you stream sensordata from your phone to the Arduino IoT Cloud.

It is now possible to synchronize your phone's sensor data with the cloud, using the Arduino Remote App for [iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/arduino-iot-cloud-remote/id1514358431) and [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cc.arduino.cloudiot&hl=en&gl=US). Furthermore, this data can also be used to control your Arduino boards, such as mapping a value from a sensor on your phone to an actuator on your Arduino.

Your smartphone is absolutely **packed** with sophisticated sensors that constantly measure everything from GPS position, to magnetic fields, acceleration, and so on. But they're difficult for a maker to take advantage of without having extensive knowledge of mobile development.

That changes now - as you are able to, with the latest version of the Arduino IoT Cloud Remote app for [Android](https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cc.arduino.cloudiot&hl=en&gl=US) and [iOS](https://apps.apple.com/us/app/arduino-iot-cloud-remote/id1514358431), set up a dashboard in the Arduino IoT Cloud that tracks and displays all your sensordata in a neat dashboard within a minute.

The goal with this project is to learn about how you can use your smartphone as a remote, sending sensordata to the Arduino IoT Cloud. You'll also learn how this sensordata can be used by other Things in your Arduino Cloud account, essentially letting you control your IoT devices depending on your variables such as GPS position, compass orientation, or any of the other in the long list of variables the IoT Remote app can stream live to the cloud.

At this point, if you expand the section, you can see all the sensors that can be tracked in the Arduino IoT Cloud listed. You'll need to consent to the sensordata being sent to the Arduino IoT Cloud by checking the box, then you're ready to start the automated process of building the dashboard. Tap "**SET YOUR PHONE**" and sit back, relax, while the app takes care of everything else for you.
