I've given it some time, but I just don't like the new logo. I don't really understand the need to make it so simple that it no longer really resembles anything.

The new logo is pain hideous. It feels like done weird parody of Homeassistant.

When will they update the companion app icons with the new logo?

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I hope never. It is enough I have to see that thing when the app starts. If it shows in my phone app drawer, I'm doing a custom icon with the old logo. Bleh, that thing is sooo ugly.

It just updated on my phone to the new icon. I tried to give it a chance but wow that looks not great. Something about the scale and lack of discerning features.

If you are on iPhone, apparently you have the option to choose between new and old logos

Probably still no user accounts so I can give people control over only their own rooms and shared areas.

There are user accounts and you can restrict dashboards on a per user basis, but it's clunky currently and could do with being expanded.

These limitations should not be misconstrued as security. Anyone with an account can still interact with any device in any way accepted by HA. And just because they can’t see them on the dashboard doesn’t mean they can’t see them through various other methods.

Yay, WeatherFlow Tempest was added!

Oh no, now I have to redo all my automations and NodeRED stuff lol

Install of this fails for me. Hope you have better luck.
