Okay, first step is to make that void loop Blynk friendly by using a SimpleTimer to clean the loop up and remove the need for the delay() command.

Take a read of this…

Using BlynkTimer or SimpleTimer

Many users seem to struggle with the basic concepts of using BlynkTimer in their projects, despite the excellent discussions and tutorials that exist on this forum, so I thought I’d write a guide that will hopefully help clarify things. It’s rather long, as it attempts to explain the reasoning behind why and how we use timers, and covers some more advanced subjects, but I’ve tried to organise it in a way that helps people to find answers to specific questions… Why use a timer at all? Let’s say …

and…

1. add the SimpleTimer library
2. create a SimpleTimer object
3. move the code minus teg delay, which isn’t needed now) into a function
4. add a setInterval timer in your void setup, which will call your function every 1000ms
5. add timer.run(); to your void loop
6. test the code to make sure it works
7. post your updated sketch here.
