Dashboard is not synched on iphone. I am on the same account. I deleted the button widget on iPhone. On website its still there. The Template was initially created on iPhone. The changed on Website. And i lost templates button on iPhone, cant edit dashboard from phone.
There is no correlation between the mobile and web dashboards, so adding, deleting or editing a widget on one will have no effect on the other - this is by design, it is not a bug.
You need to explain more about what you mean, and what changes you made on the web console.
Pete.
Thank you very much for your quick reply.

I dont understand why there is no correlation between the mobile and web dashboards ? So Web dashboard is on its own and Mobile is on its own ? They live with their lives and never synched ? Why is that ? What if i want to design on the computer for mobile ? Its like Arduino IOT cloud, there web and mobile are synched… I just cant understand the logic behind… and i just created new template on iPhone, it appeared on web template too, but widgets are added on phone does not appear on web and vise versa… what does it mean you have to create mobile interface on mobile and web interface on web ?

I cant find Dashboards on Mobile. What i see is only templates. I am also confused with templates and dashboards. Why dashboards on the main page has less widgets than widgets inside templates ?
I really liked clean and neatly design of Blynk. And i really want to use it on my projects. I am just having a little problem to understand unusual logics
Blynk was originally a mobile only platform. The web console and corresponding web dashboards was launched when Blynk IoT was launched.
If you look at the range of widgets available on the mobile dashboard you’ll see that thee are many more than on the web dashboard, and that they have different functionality.
How would you expect it to work when you add a widget on one platform that is t available on the other?
The reality is that people tend to use mobile and web dashboards for different purposes, and in different ways, so they tend to be designed differently and showing different data.
To edit the dashboard on your mobile device, open the Blynk device and hit the spanner/wrench icon at the top. This will allow you to edit the template. Note that ALL Blynk devices that are based on that template share the same dashboard, so editing the dashboard for one of these Blynk devices will change the dashboard layout for all Blynk devices based on the same template.

ok. As my understanding, only template names are synched. Also i guess datastream and Virtual pins etc are also common. We just need to create Mobile interface on mobile and Web interface on website. And to create a dashboard, first we create template, then dashboard
I have no idea what you mean when you say this.
You define datastreams at template level. All devices based on these datastreams inherit these settings.
Correct - well, kind of.
In the web console this is defined in the Developer Zone by selecting the relevant template.
In the mobile app you first need to have created a device from the template, then you edit the dashboard layout for that device, and all other devices you add that are based on that template will inherit the same design.

Think about it this way: template is a set of different configurations, defining how the device works with the application and cloud. This includes datastreams, events, etc.
Template also contains 2 different dashboards:
- Mobile
- Web
While these dashboards are different, they share same datastreams, events, and other fundamental template settings.
Thanks Pavlo, this is the first time i got reply from Founder )) I understood now. More i will understand wheni move all my project sensors to Blynk. Now test with LED 13 is worked. And i could connect MEGA 2560 through ESP01, what was not possible on Arduino IOT.
And thanks for the beatifull and clean design.

I meant only template names, datastream are shared between mobile and web, we just only need to create separate dashboards for them.
Thanks
