Good day,
Is there now a limit on the amount of automations I can add? I had 20 automations in December, deleted the ones I did not need anymore and now when I want to add automations again it says I reached the max number of automations.
As far as I know the current limit is:
5 for the free plan
25 for the PLUS
50 for the PRO
Thanks, is that per device? When were the limit changed? In december I could do 20 automations for my 4 devices now I cannot add anything (3 are used at the moment and the other one not, used it for my christmas lights.). I now have 16 automations.
What subscription plan do you have?
Of you have the PRO plan, then what does your organisation/sub-organisation structure look like?

I am on the free plan
No, it’s per organization.
Looks like you were lucky to be able to create these automations when the limit was higher.
My advice would be not to delete any of them, and to use code running on the hardware to achieve results that can’t be handled by your existing automations.
Pete.
Thanks, Is there an alternative to automations? I now feel Like I am being tricked to force me to upgrade to a plan I cannot afford. I want to be able to send a code or something from one device to another and then use that to to something on the other device.
You can try Node-RED or an app called tasker.
I depends what type of devices you are talking about.
Previously, this would have been done using Bridge code in Blynk Legacy, and you can simulate that using the HTTP(S) API if you are using a NodeMCU or ESP32 as your ‘sending’ device.
If you’re building a home automation system then I’d recommend going to Node-Red, but you’ll probably want to upgrade from the free plan in that case to get access to more widgets.
Pete.
