# Bluetooth Magnetometer Service
![](/static/bluetooth/Bluetooth_SIG.png)
The Bluetooth magnetometer service allows another device such as a smartphone to wirelessly receive data from the micro:bit's magnetometer. The magnetometer measures the strength and direction of magnetic fields including the earth's and so it can be used as a digital compass and indicate the way the micro:bit is pointing relative to magnetic north.
Using the Bluetooth magnetometer service you could, for example, create a smartphone application which displays your direction of travel, updating it in real time.
No additional code is needed on the micro:bit to use the Bluetooth magnetometer service from another device.
~~~~sig
bluetooth.startMagnetometerService();
~~~~
### Example: Starting the Bluetooth magnetometer service
The following code shows the Bluetooth magnetometer service being started:
~~~~blocks
bluetooth.startMagnetometerService();
