Get started with your IoT project with Particle's Android app.
Easily connect your Particle devices to the Device Cloud. The app will take you through a simple setup process step by step until the LED on your device is breathing cyan - indicating it's connected to the Device Cloud and ready to be programmed!
The Particle mobile app supports all the Particle devices:
- 3rd generation: Argons, Borons, and Xenons (Android 5.0 and up)
- 2nd generation: Electron/E Series, Photon/P Series
Beyond setup, you can use our Tinker and Device Inspector features to interact with and debug your devices.
Tinker mode is a quick start sandbox that will help you get your prototype or project up and running in minutes. Tinker exposes basic pin functions through our API, allowing you to read sensor data and blink LEDs by just tapping a pin name on screen -not a single line of code needed. It provides an intuitive environment for tinkering and prototyping even if your device is the first piece of programmable hardware you've ever picked up!
Device Inspector allows you to dive deeper into your devices for advanced on-the-go debugging: Get detailed device information, read variables, call functions, and see your device event stream.
