Below is the updated version from the example library. It works on both ESPs (32 and 8266).
@Toro_Blanco check lines 24 and 108. There’s a difference with the number of array between the old and new version.
char blynk_token[33] = "YOUR_BLYNK_TOKEN";
....
WiFiManagerParameter custom_blynk_token("blynk", "blynk token", blynk_token, 34);
I recall reading somewhere that the second line array number should be one number less than the one defined on the first line just as shown with the old code. However, the new code it’s the other way around. Needless, both codes work
And what’s the use of a delay after a ESP.reset()?
