Dwelling Assistant 2026.7! \ud83c\udf89<\/p>\n

That is a kind of releases I\u2019ve been trying ahead to for a very long time. My favourite by far is what we\u2019ve achieved with automations. Function-specific triggers and situations graduate from Labs and turn into the brand new default for everybody. \ud83c\udf89<\/p>\n

It comes all the way down to one thing we\u2019ve been chasing for years: extra energy, much less complexity. As a substitute of ranging from Dwelling Assistant\u2019s internals, which entity, which state, which sort of set off, you begin from what you really need your house to do. When the bed room drops under 18\u00b0C, activate the heating.<\/em> That\u2019s it. No technical traps, no quirks to memorize. And since integrations can educate the automation engine their very own triggers and situations, it solely will get higher from right here. All of it proper there in our stunning consumer interface.<\/p>\n

The good factor is, nothing breaks. All of your present automations preserve working, worry-free. We\u2019ve additionally written tons of nice documentation explaining each single set off, situation, and motion, with examples to be taught from. And if you happen to\u2019re a kind of individuals who prefers writing automations in YAML as an alternative of the UI, you\u2019re in for an incredible expertise too. Person expertise isn’t a synonym for \u201cthe UI\u201d. YAML customers deserve good consumer expertise too.<\/p>\n

However actually? I\u2019ve bought a second favourite this launch, and that stunned me a little bit. Exercise, what lots of you continue to know because the logbook, has been rebuilt right into a slick and clear timeline. \ud83d\ude0d It reads prime to backside like a feed, teams entries by day, and at last speaks the identical language as the remainder of Dwelling Assistant. I preserve opening it simply to have a look at it.<\/p>\n

And that\u2019s simply the beginning. There\u2019s a brand new update-all button, devoted panels for infrared and radio frequency, an overhauled ZHA Zigbee machine administration, and 10 new integrations from our neighborhood.<\/p>\n

Another factor earlier than you dive in: the Open Dwelling Basis is exhibiting at IFA Berlin<\/a> for the primary time, from September 4 to eight, 2026. We\u2019d love to satisfy you there, so come say hi there. There\u2019s additionally a neighborhood meetup<\/a> on Sunday, September 6, and everybody\u2019s welcome. You’ll be able to learn all about it right here<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Benefit from the launch!<\/p>\n

An enormous thanks to all of the contributors who made this launch doable! And a particular shout-out to @piitaya<\/a>, @sairon<\/a>, and @agners<\/a> who helped write the discharge notes this launch. Because of them, these launch notes are in nice form. \u2764\ufe0f<\/em><\/p>\n

Creating automations simply grew to become simpler, pure and extra highly effective
\n<\/h2>\n
That is, palms down, one of many largest and greatest modifications we\u2019ve made to the automation editor in years. It has been roughly eight months within the making, constructed and refined launch after launch by lots of people, and formed by a mountain of your suggestions alongside the way in which. As of this launch, it’s right here for everybody, and we couldn’t be extra excited to lastly hand it over.<\/p>\n
Why are we this excited? As a result of automations have all the time requested you to satisfy Dwelling Assistant midway. Some individuals nonetheless discuss it such as you want YAML, a coding background, and a free night simply to automate a light-weight. That hasn\u2019t been true for some time, and this launch takes the largest step but towards closing that hole for good.<\/p>\n
Again in Dwelling Assistant 2025.12, we launched<\/a> purpose-specific triggers and situations<\/strong> in Settings<\/strong> > System<\/strong> > Labs<\/strong><\/a>. Each launch since has added extra of them and polished the expertise. This launch, they graduate: this new manner of constructing automationsAutomations in Dwelling Assistant assist you to mechanically reply to issues that occur in and round your house. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span> is out of Labs and turns into the brand new default for everybody. \ud83c\udf89<\/p>\n
It’s tempting to learn this as a nicer set of menu choices. It’s way more than that. It’s a completely different start line: you describe what you need your house to react to, moderately than ranging from the technical constructing blocks beneath.<\/p>\n
Begin with what you need, not the way it works
\n<\/h3>\n
An automation engine thinks in primitives. Individuals don\u2019t. You suppose \u201cwhen the entrance door opens\u201d, \u201cwhen the final individual leaves\u201d, or \u201cwhen a battery runs low\u201d.<\/p>\n
The outdated path began some other place, with Dwelling Assistant\u2019s internals. Which entity? Which state? Does it turn into `on<\/code>, detected<\/code>, house<\/code>, or not_home<\/code>? Do I want a state set off, a numeric state set off, a tool set off, or a system occasion? If you already know Dwelling Assistant properly, these questions are second nature. In the event you don\u2019t, they’re the wall you hit earlier than you even begin. \ud83d\ude24<\/p>\n`
The brand new triggers and situations communicate the language of the factor you care about. When the bed room drops under 18\u00b0C, activate the heating.<\/em> You don\u2019t take into consideration numeric state triggers, attributes, or models. You choose Temperature crossed threshold<\/strong> and say what issues. Or Battery low<\/strong>: no must know whether or not a tool studies its battery as a proportion sensor, or what counts as \u201clow\u201d. You construct across the second itself.<\/p>\n
`<\/p>\n`
`Constructed round areas, not one machine or entity at a time` \n<\/h3>\nThe brand new constructing blocks additionally help targets, and that may be a larger deal than it sounds.<\/p>\nYou’ll be able to construct an automationAutomations in Dwelling Assistant assist you to mechanically reply to issues that occur in and round your house. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span> round movement in the lounge, as an alternative of round one particular movement sensor. One sensor in that room, high quality. Ten, additionally high quality. Swap one out subsequent yr, add one other, or take away the one which saved seeing the cat, and the automation retains describing the identical intent: movement in the lounge.<\/p>\n When movement is detected exterior, activate the lights exterior.<\/em> The set off factors on the exterior spaceAn space in Dwelling Assistant is a logical grouping<\/a> of gadgets and entities that are supposed to match areas (or rooms) within the bodily world: your house. For instance, the front room<\/code> space teams gadgets and entities in your front room. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span>, the motion factors on the exterior lights. Change which sensors or lights reside there later, and the automation follows alongside. It reads like a sentence, and it’s one much less fragile checklist of entities to keep up eternally.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Greater than friendlier wording \n<\/h3>\nRight here is the half that’s simple to overlook: this isn\u2019t only a pleasant wrapper across the outdated triggers.<\/p>\nThese triggers and situations may be prolonged by integrationsIntegrations join and combine Dwelling Assistant along with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span>, together with customized and neighborhood ones. Integrations have lengthy been ready so as to add their very own actions; now they will add their very own triggers and situations too. Image a washer integration providing a plain \u201claundry is completed\u201d set off, without having to know which state worth or attribute really means completed. An integration is aware of stuff you would in any other case have to determine your self: which state modifications matter, which to disregard, which edge instances are regular, and what a helpful automation second seems to be like in its world.<\/p>\n A sensor can let you know the electrical energy value. The combination can let you know when the worth is lowest immediately<\/em>. As a substitute of everybody rebuilding the identical template, or studying the quirks of 1 specific warmth pump, EV<\/abbr> charger, or alarm panel, the mixing can supply the triggers, situations, and actions that make sense for it. That turns the automation engine into one thing integrations can educate. It’s the place \u201cextra energy, much less complexity\u201d stops being a slogan.<\/p>\n No technical traps \n<\/h3>\nThere’s a quieter profit too: No technical traps. \ud83d\udcaa<\/p>\n With these new triggers, you don\u2019t must care about unknown<\/code> or unavailable<\/code> states. The constructing block handles these in the way in which that is smart for its objective. The second it’s important to determine whether or not one particular automation ought to ignore unavailable<\/code>, wait it out, or deal with it as false, we have now already made you consider the unsuitable factor.<\/p>\n Occasion entities are one other basic. Automate round one with a plain state set off and it’s possible you’ll uncover it doesn\u2019t hearth the second time the identical occasion occurs, as a result of the state didn\u2019t change the way in which you anticipated. A purpose-specific set off expresses the occasion immediately, in order that complete class of shock merely goes away.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nYour automations are secure, and YAML isn\u2019t going anyplace \n<\/h3>\nEarlier than anybody opens a discussion board thread in gentle panic: no, you don\u2019t must rewrite something.<\/strong><\/p>\n Present automations preserve working. Generic triggers, situations, templates, and YAML all preserve working. The brand new triggers and situations are merely the higher start line for the following automation you construct, and a nicer choice once you determine to enhance an outdated one. It’s not a migration tax.<\/p>\n And this isn\u2019t Dwelling Assistant strolling away from YAML. We put actual effort into making the brand new constructing blocks learn properly in YAML too, the identical manner we did when automations moved to triggers<\/code>, situations<\/code>, and actions<\/code> and swapped service<\/code> for motion<\/code>. If textual content is your interface, it ought to really feel simply as pure. In the event you use YAML to write down automations, we’re positive you\u2019ll love the brand new triggers and situations simply as a lot!<\/p>\nDocumentation is a part of the function \n<\/h3>\nWe additionally did the much less flashy work, which on a mission like that is usually the work that issues most. Each set off, situation, and motion now has its personal documentation web page over at triggers<\/a>, situations<\/a>, and actions<\/a>. Every one explains what the constructing block is, once you would attain for it, use it from the automation editor, the way it seems to be in YAML, and contains actual examples to be taught from.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n There’s plenty of it, on objective. Approachability isn’t solely a couple of friendlier button within the UI. It’s also about serving to you perceive what that button does, and when to make use of it. Good documentation is product work, even when it doesn’t get its personal screenshot.<\/p>\n There’s an AI angle right here too, and it belongs in the proper place: that is for individuals first. However lots of you already use AI to assist construct automations, and clearer, well-described constructing blocks give these instruments a lot better materials to work with. Their options can turn into extra constant, as a result of there’s much less Dwelling Assistant-specific guesswork to invent. It won’t occur in a single day, since most fashions are educated on older examples and should preserve suggesting the outdated patterns for some time. The higher the documentation, the sooner each individuals and machines choose up the brand new manner.<\/p>\n Haven\u2019t tried constructing automations this fashion but? Open the automation editor and begin with what you wish to occur. We predict you\u2019ll like the place it begins. \ud83d\ude0e<\/p>\n Exercise logbook \n<\/h2>\nExercise, the function lots of you continue to know because the logbook, has all the time been there to reply a easy query: what occurred, and when? The best way it answered, although, was a flat checklist of full sentences. \u201cFront room lamp turned on.\u201d \u201cAuto lights was triggered by movement.\u201d Each row was an entire sentence, the machine title was repeated on each line, and it used its personal wording (\u201cturned on\u201d, \u201cmodified to\u201d) that didn\u2019t fairly match how states are written in every single place else in Dwelling Assistant. Studying again a busy day meant studying each single line.<\/p>\n This launch rebuilds it from the bottom up right into a timeline.<\/p>\n <\/p>\nEvery entry now sits on a vertical rail: the time on the left, a coloured dot with the entityAn entity represents a sensor, actor, or perform in Dwelling Assistant. Entities are used to watch bodily properties or to manage different entities. An entity is often a part of a tool or a service. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span>\u2019s icon, and the textual content beside it. You learn it prime to backside, like a feed. Entries are grouped by day, with At the moment<\/strong>, Yesterday<\/strong>, and dated headers, so that you by no means lose observe of the place you’re in time. The dot takes on the state shade too, so an on<\/code> and an off<\/code> are simple to inform aside at a look, with out studying a phrase.<\/p>\n It additionally reveals solely the context you really want. The timeline trims the title all the way down to the place you\u2019re trying: on an entity web page you simply see the worth, on a tool web page the machine title is dropped, and on an space web page the realm is disregarded. No extra studying the identical machine title on each row.<\/p>\n Just a few extra touches make it really feel proper at house:<\/p>\n \n\nThe identical phrases as the remainder of the app.<\/strong> State textual content now comes from the backend, the identical supply the remainder of Dwelling Assistant makes use of, so it reads identically in every single place and in each language. No extra logbook-only verbs.<\/li>\n \nIt reveals the trigger.<\/strong> When one thing was set in movement by an individual, you see their avatar. An automation reveals what triggered it, and an integration reveals its model icon. The \u201cwhy\u201d sits proper subsequent to the \u201cwhat\u201d.<\/li>\n\nTime the way in which you need it.<\/strong> Within the compact views, just like the extra information dialog, machine and space pages, and on playing cards, choose the timestamp to flip between absolute time and a relative \u201c2 hours in the past\u201d. A fast look once you need it, actual precision once you want it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/p>\n The identical part powers all of this, so the timeline stays constant whether or not it\u2019s filling the complete Exercise web page on a large display screen or tucked right into a card in your cellphone. Extensive screens get the complete timeline with the time column and icons; slim screens and playing cards get a compact model with the trigger icon and the time trailing the entry.<\/p>\nReplace all \n<\/h2>\nWe\u2019ve all been there. You open Settings<\/strong> > Updates<\/strong> after being away for a bit, and there it’s: a wall of pending updates. A brand new Dwelling Assistant launch, a handful of apps, that one integration, and 7 ESPHome gadgets that each one determined to ship new firmware in the identical week. Maintaining used to imply working down that checklist one entry at a time, deciding on, ready, deciding on the following, and repeating till your finger bought drained.<\/p>\n Not anymore. This launch reorganizes the updates web page round the way you really take into consideration your system, and provides a single button that does the heavy lifting: Replace all<\/strong>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n As a substitute of 1 lengthy, flat checklist, your pending updates at the moment are grouped into clear playing cards, every masking part of your setup:<\/p>\n\n\nDwelling Assistant<\/strong> sits proper on the prime, with Core, the Working System, and the Supervisor. These run the core of your system, so that they\u2019re saved on their very own, with out an Replace all<\/strong> button. You apply them your self, on objective.<\/li>\n \nIntegrations with a number of pending updates<\/strong> get a card of their very own. These seven ESPHome gadgets? Bundled collectively, so a single choice brings all of them updated. The identical goes for a stack of HACS<\/abbr> integrations ready on a brand new model.<\/li>\n \nIntegrations<\/strong> gathers the remaining one-off integration updates into one tidy card.<\/li>\n \nApps<\/strong> does the identical in your apps (was known as add-ons).<\/li>\n\nSkipped<\/strong> updates present up in their very own card when you activate Present skipped updates<\/strong>. Holding them separate means they by no means get swept alongside by an Replace all<\/strong> you didn\u2019t intend for them.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nChoose Replace all<\/strong> on any card, and Dwelling Assistant takes it from there, updating every thing in that group in a single go. No ticking containers, no affirmation dialog to step by, simply achieved.<\/p>\n It\u2019s a small change to a web page you solely go to at times, however it turns a recurring chore into a few faucets.<\/p>\nIntegrations \n<\/h2>\nBecause of our neighborhood for holding tempo with the brand new integrationsIntegrations join and combine Dwelling Assistant along with your gadgets, providers, and extra.

The hassle and dedication required to achieve these high quality ranges is critical, because it entails in depth testing, documentation, error dealing with, and infrequently full rewrites of components of the mixing.<\/p>\n A giant thanks to all of the contributors concerned! \ud83d\udc4f<\/p>\nNow out there to arrange from the UI \n<\/h3>\nWhereas most integrationsIntegrations join and combine Dwelling Assistant along with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span> may be arrange immediately from the Dwelling Assistant consumer interface, some have been solely out there utilizing YAML configuration. We preserve transferring extra integrations to the UI, making them extra accessible for everybody to arrange and use.<\/p>\n The next integrations at the moment are out there by way of the Dwelling Assistant UI:<\/p>\n Farewell to the next \n<\/h3>\nTime for a little bit cleansing, and no, we didn’t await spring. The next integrationsIntegrations join and combine Dwelling Assistant along with your gadgets, providers, and extra. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span> are not out there as of this launch. Most had been damaged for some time, leaning on libraries or providers that went unmaintained or offline years in the past:<\/p>\n \n\nAcer projector<\/strong> has been eliminated. It had been damaged since 2019.<\/li>\n \nAmpio Smog<\/strong> has been eliminated. The air high quality service it polled is offline and its library has been unmaintained since 2019, so it not works.<\/li>\n \nATEN Rack PDU<\/strong> has been eliminated. It had been damaged since 2024 over a dependency battle, and its maintainer stepped down with nobody to take over.<\/li>\n \nAvi-on<\/strong> has been eliminated. It trusted the bluepy<\/code> library, which Dwelling Assistant dropped again in 2022.7, and which has been unmaintained since 2018.<\/li>\n \nBeeWi SmartClim<\/strong> has been eliminated for a similar motive: it relied on the long-unmaintained bluepy<\/code> library that Dwelling Assistant dropped in 2022.7.<\/li>\n \nBlinkStick<\/strong> has been eliminated. It was disabled in 2024 as a result of it relied on a non-open-source library that has been unmaintained since 2020.<\/li>\n \nClementine<\/strong> has been eliminated. It had been damaged since 2023, and its library has been unmaintained since 2018.<\/li>\n \nDovado<\/strong> has been eliminated. It was disabled in 2024.7 as a result of it relied on a non-open-source library that has been unmaintained since 2017.<\/li>\n \nELIQ On-line<\/strong> has been eliminated. Its API endpoint not exists, and the underlying library has been unmaintained for years.<\/li>\n\nGitter<\/strong> has been eliminated. Gitter migrated to Matrix again in 2023 and its outdated API not works, so it’s now a digital integration dealt with by the Matrix<\/a> integration, which you should utilize to attach as an alternative.<\/li>\n \nGreenwave Actuality<\/strong> has been eliminated.

The identical instruments at the moment are laid out throughout tabbed navigation, with a tool abstract card up prime, and the loading, empty, and error states have been cleaned up all through. It\u2019s the identical highly effective Zigbee administration, simply far simpler to work with.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Thanks, @jpbede<\/a>!<\/p>\n Holding your Raspberry Pi firmware updated \n<\/h3>\nWorking Dwelling Assistant Working System on a Raspberry Pi? You might be in good firm: per our public, opt-in analytics<\/a>, the Raspberry Pi platform at the moment powers a couple of third of all installations. As of this launch, there’s an \u201creplace entity\u201dAn replace entity is an entity that signifies if an replace is accessible for a tool or service. [Learn more]<\/a><\/span><\/span> for the Pi\u2019s bootloader firmware, additionally sometimes called the EEPROM<\/abbr> replace. You’ll be able to preserve it present proper from Settings<\/strong> > Updates<\/strong><\/a>, the identical place you deal with each different replace.<\/p>\n That is greater than a nice-to-have. Particularly on the Raspberry Pi 5 and Compute Module 5, the firmware comprises bug fixes, compatibility enhancements for NVMe<\/abbr> drives, thermal enhancements, and way more. Till now, updating that firmware was cumbersome: you needed to flash one other SD card with a particular picture, or join a keyboard and a show and run the rpi-eeprom-update<\/code> command by hand. Now it takes a single step.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Just a few issues to remember:<\/p>\n \nThis wants Dwelling Assistant Working System 18<\/a> or newer, which gives the help the replace entity builds on. On older variations, the entity merely isn\u2019t there.<\/li>\n On a Raspberry Pi 4, the firmware can solely be up to date when the board boots from an SD card. In case your Pi 4 boots from USB storage, the replace isn\u2019t out there. It is a limitation of the replace system, and another reason we suggest utilizing USB solely as an information disk whereas holding an SD card as the primary boot machine.<\/li>\n Not each board can replace its firmware this fashion. Apart from a Raspberry Pi 4 booting from USB storage, the Dwelling Assistant Yellow with a Compute Module 4 isn\u2019t supported both. The place an replace can\u2019t be utilized, the entity doesn\u2019t seem in any respect, so that you don\u2019t see an replace that wouldn\u2019t work.<\/li>\n After the replace is utilized, Dwelling Assistant prompts you to reboot to finish it.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\nThanks, @sairon<\/a>!<\/p>\n Need assistance?
