Persistent "terminal type"

Solved
1

Hello …

Is there a way to create a multi line text widget that is “persistent”, ie displayed each time the smartphone application is started

  • terminal does not seen to retain “previous” line written, before the smartphone app is closed
  • labeled value allows text and is persistent, but it does not seem to handle \n

Or is this somehow the responsability of the device’s application to make the widget persistent ?

Thanks

Hello @pabou. You use Android or iOS Blynk IoT app?

It retains data for Android app. I confirm the same

Hello. It does for Plus (10 lines limit) / Pro (25 lines limit) plans.

So just to clarify - for a Free Plan, a retained display (after the app closes then reopens) doesn’t apply to IOS or Android terminal widgets? I’m asking due to the reference about Plus & Pro Plans above…

Hello …
