Love it, I was bothered by the background color and the automatic timestamp selection, but now I am very happy
How do I update my private instance?
Hi, @alvarolb, amazing job! Thinger.io is getting better every day… I was wondering if you can take in consideration to develepe a few more things like:
- Selecting and moving (maybe making a group) different widgets all together, so you can clone them in group and move it easly.
- Better web visualization from mobile, or maybe we can create a mobile version of dashboard, from app or even directly from the web version, but to use from mobile) would be perfect.
Let me know if there are news about this.
Best regards
Better web visualization from mobile,
You always have the option to look at Thinger.io from a browser.
I use just that on my phone.
I also use the browser on my smartphone to access the dashboards, but they are some glitches, such as:
There is no animation for the on/off state widget on the smartphone when I set the switch style to “push-button”, so I don’t know whether I click the button or not when I touch my screen.

Hi @sistralsrl and @alvarolb :
This project would be very interesting. Currently viewing on mobile gives problems

Congratulations, @alvarolb, on the constant evolution of the platform.
I have identified that date can be selected as a source. As pointed out in this post. Very good. I haven’t been able to get it to work yet, but I’ll keep trying.
I take this opportunity to reinforce this suggestion of implementation of informing the date of the data in the bucket, as it is very important for the final consumer to know when the information was produced (last value in bucket when enabling “Show Update”). It is also useful to identify if the device/sensor has stopped sending data to the Thinger.io platform (bucket). Or if something went wrong.
Without this information, the user will think the information is current.
