Initial state sync from device to app

While I’m not overly concerned about the web dashboard, I do believe that an option to syncAll should be feasible for both the mobile app and the web dashboard.

That statement doesn’t make much sense. The Blynk.syncAll or Blynk.syncVirtual(VPin) commands are requests send by the device to the server to ask the server to send the current state of all or some of the virtual datastreams.
This has nothing to do with the process that you’re wanting to achieve, which appears to be having a method of signalling to your device that either the app or web console is open so your device(s) should start sending data at a higher frequency.

A delay in updating this status, could lead to user confusion, prompting them to press the button, potentially triggering unintended actions.

Have you looked at the use of data invalidation to ensure that users aren’t confused by seeing old data?

@Cactixxx

Perhaps this ought to be proposed as a feature request to Blynk

BLYNK_APP_CONNECT() on Blynk 2.0 issues

Hello, I am having issues with the BLYNK_APP_CONNECTED and DISCONNECTED events. I know in legacy it used to be a setting to be enabled called “NOTIFY DEVICES WHEN APP CONNECTED” under project settings. But my company is transitioning to Blynk 2.0, and I am trying to get this event to be invoked with the new app. How do I enable this event callback with Blynk 2.0? Please it’s kind of urgent, I need an answer A.S.A.P… Regards Dominick.

Pete.
