@awarburton did you get the @blynk_app python library working? I'm using the code from the repo (which looked to have a big update on Nov 4th) and it doesn't seem to stay connected.
I think I've got it figured out 😁
I think he did a big update on Nov 4th that makes all the examples wrong. Biggest thing was blynk.run() has to now be called within a loop. Beyond that, reading values was pretty straight forward. Value is always an array of string values.

I'm using this one, specifically the code from the repo (not whatever is on pip atm) github.com/vshymanskyy/blynk…

It works, but something keeps messing up occasionally so it looses connection and becomes unresponsive. Not sure whether it's doing too much working the controls and streaming video.
Replying to @blynk_app
Are there any known bugs with the Android app? I have some issues with controls for the bot "sticking" and no further messages come through (so it's stuck driving), but other controls in the app do work.

I've put logging in the Python code and messages for the "stuck" control are just not seen so it must be from the app end.
