Home Assistant dashboards inspired by Apple’s Home app: built from your own rooms and devices, and set up entirely in the UI.

New here? Install, then Your First Screen. The sidebar has every page.
- Screens that build themselves. A new screen is generated from your floors, areas and devices: a header with the clock, weather and alarm state, a row of status chips, a section of tiles per room, and a page per room. A new light shows up on its own. (Screens)
- Pages for what your home has. Weather, Cameras, Security, Doors & Windows, Climate, Lights, Water, Timers and Vacuums, each only when there is something to show. (Pages)
- One screen for every device. The same screen works on a wall tablet, a computer, an iPad and a phone; tiles and the weather reflow below 640 px. Tiles are the Home app’s own size and spacing (196 px, 10 apart; 170 on an iPad), in SF Pro wherever Apple’s font is there.
- Status rows under every room’s name and the Climate, Lights, Doors & Windows, Water and Security pages’ titles, as the Home app has them. (Status Rows)
- A live sky behind every page that follows the weather and the time of day, with seasonal decorations, optional realistic clouds and woodland New Decorations -- or a still color, or a photo of your own, for the house, a screen, a page or a room. (Live Sky)
- Glass tiles and detail sheets. Tap a light, thermostat, lock, garage door, speaker or vacuum and a sheet opens with the controls it needs. (Detail Sheets and Pop-ups)
- A menu of pages and rooms, open beside the page, behind a button or a swipe from the left edge, with an optional Home Assistant section — or an iOS-style tab bar along the bottom or the top, or a rail down either side of a tablet, that can shrink or hide as you scroll and keeps the rest in More. (Menu, Tab Bar)
- HK Settings, a settings page in the sidebar with a live preview of each screen as a phone, an iPad, a wall tablet, a desktop or a car. (HK Settings)
- Optional features: whole-home Music, Live TV, Clean Areas, an Alarm PIN, an Energy page built from Home Assistant’s Energy settings with a Power page beside it for right now (the grid, the sun, a house battery and the cars), and Notifications: a banner at the top of the screens when something happens at home, with a camera’s snapshot.
- Wall tablet support: each tablet its own page in HK Settings, return to Home when idle, a full-screen kiosk look, and a screensaver of your photos (one at a time or a mosaic), the forecast over a landscape that dresses up for the holidays, or a full-screen clock in fifteen styles over a moving background or fifty landscape photos that come with it, with the time, what's playing, the timers, Home Status and your coming events. (Wall Tablets, Screensaver and Idle)
- Sleep Screen: each wall tablet dark when nobody needs it and awake the moment somebody does: from presence sensors, quiet hours, the doorbell and smoke, with its brightness for day and night. HK Frontend decides it for you, or your automations do. (Sleep Screen)
- A card library for dashboards you build yourself. (Card Library)
