Host computer is an old i7 desktop running proxmox. I don’t think that’s the problem.
I just think a native dashboard in the apps would be better for a bunch of reasons and the Home Assistant project is big enough now to support/warrant it.
Are you are implying that somehow going native gets you faster network transmission speeds?
No. If the components are native they can be loaded immediately without network transmission. The network calls for the current status of entities can happen in parallel and would complete much faster than one large webpage load.
And your standard cards can not be modded with CSS unless you install something 3rd party that allows that.
Pixel Fold. It takes ~2 seconds on gigabit WiFi. Slow 4G networks take a lot longer than 2 seconds. Could be pretty much instant regardless if it was native.
I work in mobile and respectfully disagree with it having no impact on time to show. You might not notice much difference if you are inside your house using gigabit WiFi, but go load your dashboard on a slow 3G/4G network lol
Sure, there is a higher development cost but you get what you pay for in this case. The project already supports native apps for Android, iOS and Mac.
Drag n drop is great but honestly what I want is a native UI on each platform.
I realize that they aren’t reinventing the wheel with the UI updates this year so it’s not really comparable/fair to say but I just want something faster and more responsive (especially on mobile). It seems crazy to me that in 2024 the fastest hardware available still takes a couple seconds to show my dashboard on a cold boot of the app.
Apollo AIR-1 seems like a good option. Open source software and hardware.
feature where the screen turns on when the camera detects motion.
Using a camera as a motion sensor doesn’t count as not using a motion sensor IMO.
Damn, I guess I’m the only one with TasmoAdmin installed lol.
Edit: Is the Meteorologisk institutt (weather) integration really used by 77%? I read a couple HA weather threads and didn’t see a single person saying they use it.
Awesome. I haven’t gone all in on HA voice, but this is going to be a must when I do.
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.
That’s a good callout. When I said you need a zigbee network I guess I should have specified an antenna.
My point is that you don’t need the aqara hub, because sometimes people think it’s required.
If you have a zigbee network the aqara leak detector is a good option. It doesn’t require a hub, cloud or any setup. And if you are willing to wait you can get them on AliExpress for a lot cheaper than Amazon.
I sorta hate it.
It’s not immediately recognisable as a house anymore which is bad for attracting new users. Also the “antenna” is less interesting and used to be immediately recognisable.
I’m running 12.2 on “unsupported hardware” (x86 proxmox) without a problem.
