Getting date from BLYNK_CONNECTED()

Need Help With My Project
1

Hi, I would like to get the date via the BLYNK_CONNECTED() function to create a repeating event every 3 months. The idea is to store today’s date in the sketch and, once three months have passed, receive a notification of the event.
Does this possibility exist? Thank you!

This…

and the following page explains how to obtain the time from the Blynk server and how to convert UNIX time to UTC and apply local timezone and DST rules.

Depending on the hardware you’re using, and the accuracy you require, you’ll probably need to re-sync your devices’s clock with Blynk every week or so.

Pete.
