We have prepared a new update with several long-awaited features like Image widget, scalable LED, optional titles for vertical widget’s and several other updates like style option in map widget, ‘test’ webhook setup option in webhook settings, scalable to lesser size joystick, and also we added a new button - WebPage Button that allows opening web pages in blynk app.
And, of course, if you are on a local server, you need the latest version.
We worked a lot on apps optimizations, so it is a little bit faster. And now we are using android app bundles, so usual app’s APK is now 20-30% lesser than before.
This release is currently in open beta (and we plan to release next builds also first in beta), so to install it you need to open google play app and scroll it till the ‘become a beta tester’ section and click ‘join now’ button:
PS While we are preparing image widget’s help - all these scale/rotation/opacity updates you can send via set property command (“scale”, “rotation”, “opacity”)
No support, Android has no native support for gif, so app currently is not supporting them. In the future, via additional libraries, we’ll implement it probably.
Interesting, I’ll check - tomorrow we’ll have some updates/fixes for image widget and probably a fix for this issue. It is better to move this to beta announcement thread
Meanwhile I still working on a way to get from within my network via direct IP, but that is not how this phone normally connects.
And on that note… Will adding image from one phone/tablet propagate across other phone/tablets? Or will this widget require loading images one at a time on each device used?
