More than one device on the same mobile dashboard.

It's what I have done with the previous Blynk : version=0.6.1 Please follow that link : https://1drv.ms/u/s!AumeH7O_5gYEquZX01DLlWEHStA5ZA?e=YjWHEe In that Blynk project there are 8 roller shutters driven by 4 ESP01. On the same mobile dashboard, I have put 8 buttons to open them + 8 buttons to close them.

Can I do the same with the new Blynk 1.0?

@whogarden no. In blynk 2.0 you'll have 4 tiles with 2 led and buttons each.

Suppose I am a roller shutter seller. Each roller shutter is build with an ESP inside (in order to close or open it). In the case where we need 8 roller shutters, I understand that we must have 8 tiles. Is it correct?

I tried "ESP_NOW" with no success (I am not an expert). Is ESP_NOW compatible with Blynk ino sketchs? Thank you.

Correct. You may find this to be a problem. However, you need to look into it from a business case perspective. You made 100 roller shutters. For 10 users you sold 1 item. For 20 users you sold 2 items. Etc. So every user will have a dynamic list that will be expanded automatically as a new device is added. With old project approach you couldn't make it.

However, I agree that for the "maker" use case it doesn't make much sense.

It should, as far as I know.

Additionally, in White-Label option we offer grouping of devices. Then, end-customers can create groups (bedroom windows, living room windows) and open/close shutters in a group with 1 button.

Yes and it's very good And what about the idea of a super tile where the user can gather widgets from different similar devices (a "bridge"?).

I can see that ESP_NOW is not working. It seems that it can't work when there is wifi already connected... Am I right?
