✨ Highlights
- 🕵️♂️ Presence detection is now built into the card — make your rooms react to presence sensors!
- 🧩 Multi‑card support (BETA) — run multiple cards independently with their own unique IDs.
- 🎨 UI polish & clarity — cleaner visuals and improved button logic.
🆕 Added
- 🧠 Presence detection support directly in the card: if you have presence sensors in one or more rooms, the card can now respond based on them. 🏠📡
- 🧩 Multi‑card mode (BETA): enable it under Settings → Settings tab (bottom). Each card gets a generated ID so the system can keep them separate. 🔀🆔
- 🌡️ External room temperature sensor option: you can now use a dedicated room temp sensor instead of the default
climate.xxxtemperature reading. Configure it per room inside the Settings popup. 🏡🌡️
🔧 Changed
-
⚡ CPU usage improvement: the card should now use a bit less CPU. It’s hard to reduce it much further without trade‑offs, but this should help overall performance. 🏎️💨
-
🗑️ Delete action reworked in the Home Assistant editor:
- Moved into the Settings popup (instead of under the Reset tab). 🧭
- Deletion is now handled through the integration for more reliable behavior. 🔌✅
-
💾 Manual schedules (profiles) UI logic: the Save button text now changes based on what it actually does, reducing confusion. 🧾🔁
🐛 Fixed
- 🛠️ Manual schedules (profiles): clicking the profile name no longer forces edit mode inside the popup — only the Edit button does that now. ✅🖱️
- 🧼 Minor UI fixes for a cleaner and nicer look. ✨🧁
