Adding an area to a message

[bazcurtis]

I would like the option to add an area to a message. I have some devices that are named very similarly and knowing which area they are in would be very helpful.

Thanks for all the great work on this card.

Hi @bazcurtis, great suggestion!

{area} placeholder is next in v1.3.7. Just add it to any message field:

message: "Motion in {area} — {name} is {state}"
It resolves to the HA area name assigned to the entity, with automatic fallback to the parent device's area if the entity itself has none. Works in message, secondary_text, tts_message, push notification fields, group_expanded_message, and in the overlay banner.

Update via HACS or replace the files manually + hard-reload. Enjoy!
