The beta version of Blynk now displays the following message:
Promo Period of BlynkPROplan
As an early user of new Blynk, you can enjoy free access to all PRO features until June 25th.
On June 25h, you can choose to sign up for PRO or PLUS plan, or can continue using Free Blynk plan without the premium features.
The Free plan includes:
- 1 device (more can be added with one-time per device fee)
- Blynk.App with basic widgets
- Blynk.360 web dashboard
- Blynk.Inject Wifi provisioning
- Blynk.Cloud with a lower transaction cap
- 1 week of data storage
- 1 admin seat
- 5 user seats
Premium features that will be turned off on June 25th if you choose not to upgrade:
- Increased limit on devices
- Increased limit on users
- Longer data storage
- Larger cap on Cloud transactions
- Advanced widgets
- Sub-organizations
- Role and permission management
- Device data export to CSV
- User data export to CSV
- Alexa and Google Home (coming soon)
I guess this answers the question about launch date.
Pricing | Blynk - IoT platform for businesses has also been updated with the following info:
It also shows that additional devices can be added to any of the plans for a one-off payment of $4.99
Free users have access to the “Basic Widgets” and Plus/Pro users have access to “PRO Widgets”. As yet, there doesn’t seem to be any indication about which widgets fall into the Basic or PRO categories.
There’s also no indication what the “Lower Transaction Cap” on free version means.
