# Signal Strength
|
|
|
|
Returns the signal strength reported by the paired device from ``0`` (no signal) to ``4`` (full strength).
|
|
|
|
### ~hint
|
|
|
|
The functions in the ``devices`` namespace allow the BBC micro:bit to communicate with a separate (remote) device,
|
|
such as a smartphone, over Bluetooth (Smart).
|
|
The set of supported events will depend on the remote device and the BBC micro:bit apps available for the remote device.
