let say my other device publishes messages every 10ms (trying to show a real time graph in mobile app) sending at slower rate i.e every 1s instead of 10ms would result to wrong output.

Are there any other free services where in I can pub/sub messages just like in Ably and PubNub? Both supports Xamarin and ESP8266 (by support I mean, i can easily integrate it, was able to use both/tested), I'm merely sending values such as "140" "300" "200" etc. 1 by 1

Using this service because the ESP and the mobile app are in different locations (far locations)

In Ably it has a message rate limit of 35 messages/second, in PubNub there is no specific limit, however it does not have a guarantee on message ordering.

Can I use mosquitto for this? or are there any workaround for this?

    Given that most mobile devices have screen refresh rates less than 60fps, updating the graph at 100fps is not going to be noticeable to the user. – hardillb Jul 28 '19 at 14:44

    send 4 values in one message every 40ms – jsotola Jul 28 '19 at 15:48
  • Hmm I tried doing 10 messages, like 10-100-104 etc.. Having a delimiter of "-" However doing so I think causes another mistake? Like the time it takes to process/build the string? I'm not sure entirely though. I'm doing this for ECG monitoring using ad8232 – SoraCode Aug 07 '19 at 07:22
  • So printing in delay(1) vs delay(10) vs delay(100) will show differebt results, that's why I need an alternative preferably without message limit, this will not be used for production... More on testing – SoraCode Aug 07 '19 at 07:25
