Sending data without using timers

[Gunner]

@Mohamed_Amr_Ali

Blynk only works off of BlynkTimer() and Blynk.run(). Is there anyway I can use VirtualWrite or use some other function to send data on my command, instead of using the Blynk timer routine?

First, Blynk does need Blynk.run() and a network connection to a server to run, but BlynkTimer is all internal to the library, so all timers will keep working even if you are not connected to a server… that said, without connection, Blynk.virtualWrite() will have no server to send the data too, thus it will be “lost”.

@vshymanskyy because the name BlynkTimer suggests it’s a Blynk function and they wrongly think the code will not work when users don’t have internet access.
