Custom Names & Pictures

🖼️ Give any entity its own picture

Home Assistant only gives person entities a photo. Every other tracker — the car, the dog's tag, a delivery van, a sensor — fell back to a generic icon. Now any entity can have its own marker picture:

entities:
  - entity: device_tracker.car
    picture: /local/car.png

Point it at anything in your www folder (/local/...) or a full URL. It's drawn as the same round marker a person's photo gets — and if you'd rather show a custom photo for a person too, picture: overrides theirs.

✏️ Rename entities on the card

Home Assistant names are often long or technical ("Ahmet's iPhone 14 Pro", "Life360 Moonis"). Give an entity the name you want to see, without renaming anything in Home Assistant:

entities:
  - entity: device_tracker.life360_moonis
    name: Moonis

The custom name is used everywhere on the map — the marker's hover tooltip, its popup title, and the on-map label below (see next section).

🏷️ Show the name on the map

Optionally print the name right under the marker, so you can tell people apart at a glance without tapping anything:

entities:
  - entity: device_tracker.car
    name: Dad's car
    picture: /local/car.png
    show_name: true

It shares one tidy label with the other marker text, so combining it with Marker Label and Weather Badge reads as a single line:

Dad's car · Not home · 5 min ago · 18° ☀️

Works for every entity, with or without a custom name (without one it prints the Home Assistant name). A very long name is shortened only when it shares the label with the status or weather, so the parts you switched on always stay visible.

All three are set per entity in the editor's Entities → Marker tab, or in YAML as above. Nothing new is fetched — the picture is just an image URL your browser already knows how to load.
