Popups and extras¶

Popups¶

Every card opens a popup with the details: brightness, colour and colour temperature for lights, transport and volume for media, modes and presets for climate, position for covers, and the history of the last 24 hours for sensors.

The ⋯ button next to close offers Card settings (see Card settings) and Open in Home Assistant, Home Assistant's own dialog for the entity.

Search¶

The magnifier in the navigation searches rooms, pages and devices. Enter opens the first hit, Escape clears.

Presence¶

The people pill shows how many people are home; tap for the list with their profile pictures.

Alarm¶

The shield pill shows the alarm state. Tap to arm or disarm. When the alarm panel uses a code, a keypad appears.

Under Settings → Motion & doorbell pick trigger sensors (a binary sensor or an event entity) and a camera. When one fires, the camera stream pops up (and wakes the idle screen), and closes again after the time you set. The same tab chooses which motion sensors feed the motion bar.

Modes¶

Settings → Modes links modes such as Guest or Vacation to an input_boolean or switch. Toggle them from the More menu; an active mode shows in the notification line. Your automations in Home Assistant do the actual work.

Idle screen¶

Settings → General → Idle screen: after a number of minutes without touch, the panel dims to the clock, date, weather and a status line. A touch wakes it. Made for wall tablets.

Notifications¶

Home Assistant's persistent notifications appear in Attention and in the notification line. Tap one in the Attention popup to dismiss it.

Connection¶

When the connection to Home Assistant drops, a red pill at the top says so until it is back.

Language¶

English and Dutch. Settings → General → Language: automatic (follows your Home Assistant profile), English or Nederlands. Other Home Assistant languages fall back to English.
