    YOU Saved my Project thank you so much. I cant imagine the time it took to do this. I have little experience in Arduino stuff and I had a hard time following other How to's And your comment from the diy machines channels led me here. Thank you so much and for the people who didn't get it after watching this video 3 times like me i am gonna leave a quick step by step guide translating the video

    I tried following a few other videos without success, but it was easy to get it working with your video

    1. Wire your Hardware
    2. Make sure it works with the Blink test code
    3.download the files from online including the separate driver to make sure you pc reads the Wemos Wifi module
    4. copy his library folders to yours (Watch for duplicates)
    5. Input your RUclips api and channel Id both very easy to find and you can make an api within 1 min
    6. ONCE THE code uploads yes you will get some error messages but as long as it uploads and says " wifi . . " then you are good to go to
    7. OK and like magic open up your phone and yup go to your phone and click wifi,,, connect to your unit and log into your wifi (I couldn't Believe this part)
    8. Bam watch the numbers go up.
    Thanks again for the tutorial I was about to put all these parts back in the bin because of all the RUclips api comment stuff saying it didn't work

    How many digits are handle by the display with that code? 4? 5? 6? ?

      I can’t remember lol. But it will display “10k” instead of “10,000”

    When I saw this I got so excited to make it! I just ordered the pieces so can't wait! Just a question, I want to make this for a friend as a gift so if I test this with my wifi and then when i give it to my friend he would have to change the wifi in the arduino codes?

    • @evChay

      Nope! He will use his phone to setup the wifi.

    Brilliant, I have been trying to get this working from someone else's video for months. You've explained everything in detail for me to follow perfectly. thanks.
    One slight thing you might be able to help me with. Does it go up in 10's after 1000 Subs as mine says 1060 today and youtube says 1065? if you find a way to get it to count in 1's that would be great as I'm sad and get a sub every now and then so like to hear the buzz :D

    • @evChay
      @evChay  3 года назад +1

      Lol! I’m glad it worked for you. Unfortunately I’m not above 1000 subs yet! 50 more to go so I haven’t seen that bug yet. I’ll work on it and get back to you.

    Was looking for a replacement AC adapter for my HDMI capture unit on Amazon. Ended up looking at "Elegoo" stuff, found out about this Arduino IDE thingy, the only thing I could think of making is a youtube subscriber count so I came to youtube and before I know it I'm looking at a new hobby.... which has disrupted yesterday's hobby of capturing footage and learning video production in DaVinci Resolve. I should probably focus on one thing.

    Hi evChay !
    I tried your code and I don't understand why I get 1073.6M each time!
    I double check all credentials (API key, Channel ID..) and nothing wrong..
    Do you have an idea?

    • @evChay
      @evChay  3 года назад

      Hey! thanks for trying out the code! Does it show your sub count at all? I sometimes get that 1073.6M too. I 'll look into it. I think its because I'm calling the API again too fast.

    • @evChay
      @evChay  3 года назад

      Thank you! I want to say “999 M” but I may be wrong. You are limited to what you can display. 100,000 displays as “100K”. 1,000,000 displays a “1 M”

  • @Zerpic
    @Zerpic 3 года назад

    Hey thanks for your guide massively helpful! I notice that every so often it will read 0 and then go back to showing current subs, I assume this is it fetching the new subscriber number again maybe? If so is there a way it could read the recent subscriber number whilst fetching? (So it doesn't look like it's changing as such). Thanks again it looks great :)

      Thank you for watching. Glad it helped. It doesn’t go to zero on mine. I’ll look at it again. Comment out the Instagram section of code. Instagram blocks you for requesting data after a few hours.
