Creating a Blynk account

Before you start to create applications with the Blynk app builder, you should create a user account with Blynk Cloud. The following steps will guide you through how to do that:

1. Open the Blynk app builder on your mobile device by tapping on the application icon labeled Blynk.
2. Tap Create New Account.
3. Alternatively, you can log into the Blynk app builder with your Facebook account by tapping on the Log In with Facebook button:

2. First, you will be notified on how energy works. Tap on the Cool! Got it. button:

Notification about how energy works

Each widget needs energy to operate. When you delete a widget, energy is returned.

1. At any time, you can log out from the app builder by tapping the log out icon in the toolbar. When prompted, tap LOG OUT, or tap CANCEL if you want to stay logged in.

At the time of writing, Blynk doesn't send any email message to your email account confirming the creation of the new user account.

1. When you log into the Blynk app builder again, type in your email address associated with the Blynk account and the password, then tap Log In.
2. You can reset your password by tapping Reset Password at any time.
