Key Updates in the Latest Home Assistant Release:
* New Devices Page: A dedicated “Devices” page has been added to the dashboard. This page lists all devices and connections that haven’t been assigned to a specific area, making it easier to find and manage them.
* Settings Page Reorganization: The settings page has been restructured, with the “protocols” section now appearing after the core settings.
* Expanded Purpose-Specific Triggers & Conditions: Building on the previous update, more trigger types have been added for automations. These include triggers based on:
* Button presses
* Device entering/leaving the home
* Humidifier status (on/off)
* Light brightness
* Lock status changes
* And others.
* Labs Feature: Purpose-specific triggers and conditions are still considered experimental and need to be enabled through Settings > System > labs.
In essence, this update focuses on improving device management, institution within the Home Assistant interface, and expanding the capabilities of automations with more intuitive and specific triggers.
