wow that is amazing , now you opened all the android capabilities to work with Blynk.
Now actual automation is possible
Amazing! It would be awesome if you could write a some kind of tutorial or step-by-step guide. We would definitely share it with our Facebook and Twitter communities! + put to documentation when itās ready.

Hey tried to make a Tasker Plugin for Blynk today.
I compiled the .apk for you.

ā¦or you can compile it yourself.

P.S: I only programmed with Java a little bit in school. So please consider that when looking through the code 
P.P.S: Only VirtualWrite works

Has there been any progress on this tasker plugin?
I am currently using the tasker ssh plugin that connects to a VPS that then runs the python script to control my esp8266. It works, but it is slow and there are a lot things that can go wrong and stop if from functioning.
I tried using the send/expect plugin that @Smodu and @twobe were describing, but I could not get it to work.
Any assistance is much appreciated.
Hi, we donāt even plan to do it. The only thing is made by community. You can search the forum
@priorguy What are your settings in the Send/Expect plugin? What data do you send? Have you tried the tasks I uploaded.
I donāt have the time to work on the tasker plugin at the moment.
Hi Blynkers!
Could you please be so kind to share step by step the way to use the plugin? Iām really new with tasker but I love the idea to use it with Blynk.
Thanks is advance!!
Create a new Task -> Click the plus sign -> Select āPluginā -> Select āBlynkTaskerPluginā -> Edit Plugin data (Pen Icon in the upper right corner) -> specify server and port (only needed if you use local server) -> enter your auth token and select the virtual pin you want to use -> click the save button and youāre done
Everything else (how to use tasker) is not specific to the Blynk plugin and is explained in a lot of tutorials you can find with google
Be aware that the Plugin isnāt a tested programm and there will be probably some bugs.
Many thanks @twobe !! I can see that the Virtual Pin selected can be ātrueā or āfalseā. If I press āTestā I can read āSuccessā so I understand the configuration for the plugin is correct.
Iāve done two tasks, one task to set ātrueā a Virtual Pin 1 and other one to set āfalseā same pin.
Iāve added a Profile so (in theory) the Virtual Pin is set to ātrueā when the Profile goes in and is set to āfalseā when the Profile goes out.
Does it have sense for you or Iām completely wrong?
How can I manage it at Blynk side?? 
I wrote a tutorial for tasker

Hi twobe,
Thank you for providing us with the tasker profiles. I have downloaded them and imported them in to my task list.
I have also updated the variable %BLYNK_AUTHTOKEN with my blynk projects auth token. Beyond this i am not sure how to get through. I have the trial version of the Send/Expect tasker plugin installed. Could you kindly explain what i need to change/do in order to digitalWrite D1 high?
Any help will be much appreciated.
Thanks in advance

would you kindly tell us how you set up the send/expect plugin. Im having a little bit of trouble getting any of this to work. I even tried the JavaScript method mentioned by @twobe
Hey,
I donāt really have the time to explore this further, but I can tell you that digitalWrite wont work at all, it didnāt for me at least.
I donāt really know how to Import the .XML files into tasker, but you can use my plugin, it should work.
BTW did you try my python script? you just need to change the variables in the beginning and run it from the shell. It should then print out the payload.
