Serial Monitor Data onto Another Device

Can you have the information displayed on the serial monitor transferred onto another device? I want to see the serial monitor information when I'm away from the computer.

You can use two bluetooth modules in Master-slave mode for this purpose. One bluetooth module will be in the Transmitter's side, another will be in the receiver's side. an HC-05 bluetooth module pair will be fine.

The serial monitor is a terminal program and is not required for Arduino operation.

Serial output data can be viewed using any other terminal program, or sent via wired or wireless serial links to other devices (running terminal programs) as suggested above.

For example, an HC-06 bluetooth module can transmit serial UART data directly to (or receive serial data from) an Android mobile phone running a bluetooth terminal app.

What devices are available?

phone or another computer

Would you recommend using Arduino Cloud Trigger or would the Bluetooth option be easier?

On the same network? You could use PuTTy

Try both and let us know which is easier.

If you can go with adding an ethernet shield, you can use a ‘telnet like’ interface to connect literally anywhere on the planet.
