## 🎉 What's New

This release introduces a **completely redesigned configuration experience** that makes button mapping intuitive and user-friendly.

### **2-Step Configuration Process**

### **Better User Experience**
- ✅ **Entity-first approach**: See your devices before assigning actions

- ✅ **Reliable saving**: Configuration persistence improved
- ✅ **Flexible mapping**: One entity, one action (or none)

### **Technical Improvements**

3. **Step 2**: For each selected entity, choose its action from the dropdown menu
4. **Save** your configuration

## 📱 Supported Entities

- **Switches**: `switch.*` (Smart switches, relays)  
- **Input Buttons**: `input_button.*` (Helper buttons)
- **Binary Sensors**: `binary_sensor.*` (Motion, door sensors)

4. Start Sleep
5. Wake Up
6. Log Pee Diaper
7. Log Poo Diaper
8. Log Both (Pee & Poo)
9. No Action (leave unmapped)

## 🔄 Upgrade Notes

- **Reconfiguration**: Easier than ever with the new UX

## 🐛 Bug Fixes
