iOS 2.25.0 Beta Release

I hadn’t really followed the Android image widget thread in too much detail, as I don’t have any Android devices.
I’m running the iOS beta version and was a little surprised/disappointed at the way the image widget has been implemented. It’s great at doing what it says it does, but if press/release events of the widget were sent as BLYNK_WRITE events then it would be a much more powerful tool. It could be used as a switch widget, which could be made to behave differently on short and long presses (via code of course) and even disabled/greyed-out by having a grey version of the image and corresponding code to not respond to press events.
This functionality is something I’ve requested here:

In the future, are there plans to add the image functionality to existing switch types (On url, Off url - as well as existing On/Off colour and text)?

One minor issue that I did find with the webPage button.
If you don’t supply a fully qualified url then the app crashes when the button is pressed. I realise that the hint text implies that https:// is required, but if a url without the https:// prefix is used then it ought to be handled in a more elegant way than simply throwing the toys out of the pram :open_mouth:

Pete.
