New Android Release 2.26.5

@Gunner

I hear your frustration and sorry for loosing your trust, but you can’t demand something that hurts our platform vision. Our mission is to allow developers to build nice-looking IoT apps quickly and with a minimum effort. Unfortunately, auto-scaling creates a lot of design mess + inconsistency in end-users applications.

None of the interface builders support font auto-scaling. Check squarespace, wix, tilda, shopify, (as web site builders are closer to Blynk idea than any other products). They increase the height of the block dynamically, not the font size. Font size is always fixed.

Currently, we don’t support dynamic change of the height for the widgets based on the amount of content, but maybe we will get to it at some point. It’s just a a different approach to interface building. Also, it’s native mobile app, not a website, so we just designed Blynk differently.

Again, product will change a lot. New things will be added, some will be removed. It’s a common way of software development.

I think you would agree that most of the community requests are always heard and implemented. There aren’t that many companies out there who are so flexible like us.

But sometimes we have a different perspective. And this perspective made Blynk a product that people love. It means that we also have an opinion on things and are working hard to make Blynk better every day. You can’t take it out of the equation. We are allies, we just have our arguments on certain things.

Hope it makes sense. Let’s move on and gain your trust back with all the good stuff we are preparing for you.

:pray:
