If an IoT device sits in a warehouse for months, outdated firmware can brick it on day one of installation.
We solved this with Local OTA.
Blynk apps push the latest firmware locally during provisioning — fixing the device before it ever talks to the cloud.

Nordic's nRF9151 is now supported on Blynk over LTE-M.
Flash a binary. Provision over UART. Power-on to live dashboard in under 15 seconds.
Dashboards, mobile apps, OTA updates, fleet management — no frontend code needed.
Halfway through writing firmware, you realize you need a new datastream.
So you stop. Switch to the browser. Navigate the console. Add it. Switch back. Try to remember what you were doing.
The Blynk MCP server fixes this — manage your entire Blynk account from inside your IDE.
