No, ESP was not tested unfortunately. I’ll check it ASAP.

@Costas, @creepkr, @chrome1000
Just updated the RTC widget. There was a very weird bug with ESP initialization.
You have to use latest master version and put rtc.begin(); in the setup (see new example).

Hope that helps!

Thanks @vshymanskyy I’ll check it out as soon as possible.

@Costas Sorry, I haven’t had a chance to try loading it onto an ESP yet. We iOS guys usually have a couple weeks of lag after something new appears on Android.

Hey,

I dont see any RTC examples in the Blynk librairy for arduino nor anything rtc related on the android app.
Am I missing something?

I just want my esp module to know what time it is at all times so I can make an alarm clock program where my lights switch on when it’s wake up time.

Ok so I updated my Blynk app and I now get the RTC widget.
But can I find an example somewhere on how to use it?
Using librairy 3.3 and android

You blynk people are like superstars to me.
Dimitry, if I was a 12 year old girl in the 90’s, you’d be my leonardo dicaprio.
Thanks for the fast response!
