Boo! 👻
We simply celebrated our birthday 🥳, which suggests it’s time for spooky season; prepare for Halloween! And, whats up to the October launch of House Assistant 2025.10! 🎃
This launch iterates on a few of the options we launched within the final couple of releases, but in addition introduces some brand-new ones!
The spotlight of this launch is certainly the iterations of the automation editor, which gained a sidebar final launch, and now has gained undo/redo performance, a resizable sidebar, improved copy/paste, and extra! Thanks for all of the suggestions you offered on the earlier launch; it made an enormous distinction on this launch.
Utilizing a number of wake phrases for voice assistants is now attainable, which opens up numerous prospects, particularly for dual-language households (like mine 😉). Dashboards get extra clever by suggesting entities primarily based in your utilization patterns, and the AI Job can now generate pictures, which I’m curious to see what the neighborhood will do with it!
Benefit from the launch!

An enormous thanks to all of the contributors who made this launch attainable! And a particular shout-out to @JLo
Automation editor
Within the final launch, we launched a brand new format for the automation editor, and your suggestions has been invaluable in serving to us refine it!
This launch fixes just a few of the commonest points we managed to assemble from all of you. Thanks for all of the suggestions! ❤️
The sidebar is resizable
Engaged on an motion that’s too complicated for a small sidebar? Perhaps one with just a few YAML fields? Now you can resize the sidebar to adapt the format to your present process!

CTRL+V
We beforehand launched keyboard shortcuts to repeat and minimize.
Pasting was extra complicated to deliver to life as a result of you possibly can paste a block (set off, situation, motion) in many various areas in your automation. On this launch, we introduce a extremely easy sample. If you happen to beforehand copied a block, you possibly can paste it under any block just by choosing it and urgent CTRL+V.
One other quite simple, however very welcome, quality-of-life enchancment to the automation editor!

The overflow menu is again
We initially relocated the overflow menu (the menu that seems while you click on the ⋮) with all of the choices associated to a block on the sidebar, considering this is able to make the stream cleaner.
As a result of common demand and useful suggestions that some actions had been harder to achieve (resembling testing a situation or working an motion), we determined to deliver it again to the primary part of the editor as properly.

Undo/Redo
We’ve all been there: you’re constructing a fancy automation, make a mistake, and need to revert it, solely to search out out that it’s actually not easy. Up till now, the one strategy to revert some unsaved modifications made to an automation was to shut it and begin over once more… A really painful workflow.
This launch introduces an Undo performance (and its related Redo). Now you can undo as much as 75 steps again in your automation enhancing historical past (and redo them if you’d like). Customary keyboard shortcuts (CTRL+Z and CTRL+Y) are additionally out there! A tremendous contribution from @jpbede

Repeat repeat repeat repeat
Lastly, we observed some undesirable complexity in our “repeat” constructing block, which lets you repeat one or a number of actions for so long as it’s essential.
This complexity stemmed from the truth that we had been attempting to cowl 4 principal use circumstances in a single block.
We determined to separate this constructing block into 4 smaller ones, with less complicated descriptions explaining every use case. Good!
Right here’s how they had been separated:
- Repeat a number of instances – Repeat a sequence of actions a set variety of instances.
- Repeat till – Repeat a sequence of actions till a situation is glad. The situation is checked after every run of the sequence.
- Repeat whereas – Repeat a sequence of actions so long as a situation is glad. The situation is checked earlier than every run of the sequence.
- Repeat for every – Repeat a sequence for every factor of an inventory.

For our superior customers: This evolution is just beauty. The YAML format of the repeat block doesn’t change; this implies your present automations won’t be affected by this variation.
Automation editor suggestions
One in all House Assistant’s biggest strengths is our neighborhood. We’re constructing this automation editor collectively, and your enter will form the place it goes subsequent. There are two methods to get entangled:
AI Job – Draw me a sheep
In 2025.8, we launched a strategy to generate information utilizing the LLM of your selection, paving the way in which to extra AI-driven automations, dashboards, and different sensible house interactions.
On this launch, we introduce a strategy to generate pictures!
Now each time somebody rings your doorbell, you possibly can obtain a notification with a cartoon model of the doorbell snapshot. @JLo

Dashboards get smarter – let your private home counsel what to indicate
Within the final launch, we launched the House dashboard, providing a less complicated strategy to management and monitor your sensible house for those who don’t have the time, power, or must customise your personal dashboard intimately.
Now we’ve added a brand new idea: sections of recommended entities. This follows a fundamental algorithm that means entities you may have interacted with probably the most previously. It then reveals these entities primarily based on the hour of the day, with solely related controls being recommended.

Including prediction entities to any dashboard
If you happen to’re making a guide dashboard with sections, you possibly can combine these prediction controls straight into it. The setup follows a section-based strategy:
- Add a brand new part.
- Open and edit the YAML of that part.
- Substitute all the part YAML with the next snippet:
technique:
kind: common-controls
title: Widespread controls
One in all House Assistant’s biggest strengths is our neighborhood. We’re constructing this dashboard collectively, and your enter will form the place it goes subsequent. There are two methods to get entangled:
Voice
Hey, hola
For a really very long time, ESPHome-based voice assistants (even the tiny Atom Echo) secretly supported a number of wake phrases beneath the hood. With this launch, we’re lastly opening up this function to you!
Now you can outline two wake phrases and two assistants for each voice assistant in your house!

This makes it simple to help dual-language households by assigning completely different wake phrases to completely different languages. For instance, “Okay Nabu” may very well be used for French, whereas “Hey Jarvis” is used for English.
A number of wake phrases and assistants can be utilized for different functions as properly. Wish to hold your native and cloud-based voice assistants separate? Simple! “Okay Nabu” may very well be used for a cloud-based assistant whereas “Hey Jarvis” is used for an area one.
We’d love to listen to suggestions on how you propose to make use of a number of wake phrases in your house!
Beep boop
After a voice command, Help responds with a brief affirmation like “Turned on the lights” or “Brightness set”. This allows you to know that it understood your command and took the suitable actions. Nevertheless, for those who’re in the identical room because the voice assistant, this affirmation can really feel redundant since you possibly can see or hear that the suitable actions had been taken.
Beginning with this launch, Help will detect in case your voice command’s actions all occurred throughout the similar space because the satellite tv for pc gadget. In that case, a brief affirmation “beep” will probably be performed as an alternative of the complete verbal response. Apart from being much less verbose, this additionally serves as a fast reminder that your voice command solely affected the present space.
This function doesn’t work for AI-enabled Assistants, as they will generate all kinds of responses that may’t get replaced with a easy beep.
