# How do I test realtime streaming without a wearable?

The data generator/simulator does not yet support realtime streaming simulation, it covers the Unified API and mobile SDK only.

To **test realtime integrations without a physical wearable**, use the phone's own sensors:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Initialise the [realtime SDK](https://docs.tryterra.co/streaming-api/getting-started) as usual.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Start streaming with the phone connection type (Android or Apple) instead of BLE.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Request data types such as heart rate or steps.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

Which data types are available depends on the phone's sensors.
