What’s New
Version 2024.5
Added:
- Voice Assist screen and shortcut - so you can use iPhone 15 Pro Action button, iPhone's back tap, widgets (home and lock screen), or any other way you can think of to trigger the Home Assistant Voice or Text Assist function.
- Refreshed Apple Watch app - rebuilt in SwiftUI, and looking sharper than ever.
Fixed:
- Removed the Thread credentials management screen from the MacOS app becaues the API doesn't work well on MacOS yet.
- Improved widgets to prevent crashing in the background due to the 30MB memory restriction.
- Make auto-adding of scenes to the Apple Watch optional.
- Removed logic that left "ghost" webviews alive in background (scary right? :P)
And much more.
Ratings and Reviews
Home Assistant is a total life changer!!!
Amazing!!! I’ve been in IT since 2007. So naturally I’m all about tech. I was turned on to Home Assistant by a couple of colleagues while working doing a lot of migration work due to an unfortunate acquisition. I started hard core from the get go. Deployed to my hypervisor environment and adopted a ton of Zwave, Zigbee and wireless later on Bluetooth devices. Just an amazing technology!!! Thanks to the developers and the many that have been a part of building and supporting such an amazing set of tools. I’ve found ways that this can help so many things… Thank you for all of your hard work!!!!
Waste of time
I have to restart the server (raspberry pi 3 / 4) every few hours. I started with a raspberry pi 3, thought that it may be outdated, then bought a raspberry pi 4 and set up the OS on that. That was still no better. Each time I set it up it works fine for a few hours and then it’s nowhere to be found on my IOS app. I have to go unplug the server each time to reboot it only forward to work for a few more hours. The same thing happens on my laptop and my LG tablet. I thought this was supposed to eliminate apps, instead I have to keep all the original apps as well as this useless app that only works when it wants to. Reddit and Discord hasn’t been any help so far as all
My questions get skipped over and I never get a response. I feel like I have wasted countless hours trying to set up a miracle app that everyone swore would be my end all solution, when Alexa already worked 100 times better, and only took seconds to set up. At least now I have two raspberry pi’s that are free. The original one I plan on using as a server for my outside security system like I did before. The other, who knows, maybe I’ll finally emulator I’ve always wanted. All I know is I am done with Home Assistant.
Fantastic App!
I love homeassistant and have been slowly transforming my house into a smart-home using it. Every device in the house is connected and running the app and there is just no going back. HA is a life changer and I honestly can’t say enough good things about it. The apple watch integration is wonderful too, i walk around controlling my house with just my watch.
My wife hated all of the apps and remotes we had to use before, now I’ve set her up with a dashboard and i’ve even caught her bragging about it to her girlfriend. It takes some learning but it is absolutely worth it! the results are amazing.
