Home Assistant 3.0 brings shortcuts to Android 11’s power menu

One year after the Home Assistant Companion for Android was released in the Play Store, the app is getting a major update to version 3.0. The app’s developer published a blog post on Friday celebrating the milestone, and also shared some details about what’s new in the update.

The list of new features is long, so we’re not going to cover every single change. There are, however, a few standout additions, including integration with Android 11’s power menu. Users will be able to add scenes, scripts, and automations made in Home Assistant — almost all entities are available.

The developer said improvements have also been made to notifications. For example, Home Assistant 3.0 can use make use of the alarm stream to bypass a device’s ringer mod setting. The developer said this could be useful in the event of an alarm being triggered. Users will also be able to open another app with an actionable notification.

Home Assistant 3.0 also introduces new sensors and enhancements to the overall sensor experience. Some of the new sensors include keyguard sensors, last notification sensors, and a last update trigger, which will “represent the reason for the last update that was sent to your Home Assistant instance.” As for sensor settings, the developer made some changes so custom settings can help with what updates actually get sent to your Home Assistant instance.

There are many, many more new features available in Home Assistant 3.0, which you can see in the list below. You can also track any issues related to the app’s integration with Android 11’s power menu. The big update is rolling out on Android starting today.
