A sidebar for the automation editor, tons of new tile card features, a brand new experimental Home dashboard, analog clocks, storage insights, and much more!
I would love to use Tiles more but I want to be able to have values from other entities shown on the tiles. Like being able to control a fan but show the values of the room temp/hum on the button.
I think the design philosophy is that each tile represents no more than a single entity at a time, and compact enough that you can arrange the entities in a section to represent a device, room or group.
In your example, perhaps the room also has a humidifier and/or heater. So in reality, the room temperature entity isn’t truly tightly coupled with the fan. The heater and or humidifier are also a part of the whole.
With tiles, you are in complete control to arrange groups of entities that represent a larger whole, in whatever scope you like.
