Sparkfun esp32 thing

1

hello!

can somebody confirm, if blynk si compatible with sparkfun esp32 thing board?

i see that esp32 dev board is listed in the supported hardware page, but just want to make sure it is fully compatible with the sparkfun version.

also, it would be very nice, if someone could report the experience about the ble connectivity of this board, if it works reliably with the blynk app on android?

thank you!

thanks, i’m reading right now. but eventually i’ve learned, that ble is not yet supported with esp32 :disappointed:

thanks. but for my current project i definitely have to use bluetooth 4.0 or 2.0, and that functionality is not yet supported with esp32. also, the article in this link is demonstrating an example with wifi. not suitable for me. probably i will try some older board with supported ble, like the redbear duo…

anyway, thank you for the help!
