Hi, thank you for your feedback! It’s very easy. We have sketches and examples for all widgets. Here for LCD.

Hi, Thank you for the quick response! Apologies, Yes i found them!! I hope i have not wasted any of your time.
Prey tell can i distribute the app i have built? i.e to other people in the factory?

In a sense you can. At the moment the solution is to have them install Blynk and use the same credentials to login.

Today we release history graph widget and after that starting working on project sharing. So in few months this will be available I hope =).

Hi, i am new to LCD.
Is it possible to select how many decimals?
Now I get 3 decimals, but I only need 1.

Make sure you send the right amount of decimals from your program should do the trick I guess :slight_smile:

@Flopp you need to truncate it in your code. Google for

dtostrf

Or do

String(0.1234,1);

will print 0.1

I am sending data through a VirtualPin.
I am using OneWire and in my code I get 2 decimals but in Blynk iPhone app I see 3 decmals, I could understood if it was 2 decimals.

Can I change amount of decimals for a VirtualWrite?

LCD shows what you send. Try above functions or typecasting I showed above.
