Once we have a native / scalable (multi room / multi device) hardware option for voice with wake words these new features for phrases and such are going to be great.

Other than the text to speech which I already use for announcements most of the speech stuff I am holding off on till I can full circle replace my Google Home Minis for basic commands.

What is currently stopping you from replacing them with something like Willow and a few ESP32-S3-BOX's?

I'm happy to finally be able to re-arrange my dashboard. Not drag and drop, but it's a good start. I am guessing the numbering is now top to bottom so 1 top left, 2 below, 3 below that and so forth, but it doesn't on mine at least. I have 1 top left, 2 below, 7 below that, 3 next to 1 and so forth. But at least, I know where I can target my placement now. :)

Dashboard layout is my biggest complaint about HA so glad to see they are giving that a little attention.

Time to upgrade to 2023.6!

I'm guessing you run HA supervised. Or is there a way to update to older version on normal HA, as well?

[โ€“] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I'm not sure what supervised means in this context. I run HA in a container on a k8s cluster, so I just point at whatever image version I want to use, which is ALWAYS at least one step behind "latest" :)

Deep links for the AppleTV is sweet! I can give my kids a button and have the tv play Baby Shark ๐Ÿคฃ

Nice, I missed that! I have Apple TVs in every room at my place, so that's a big upgrade for me.

I worry about your mental health if you implement your button though ๐Ÿ˜†

Will upgrade after the inevitable 2023.7.1 update in a few days ๐Ÿ˜Ž
