little remark that the link to the ironos is not working in the blog
What are the ESPHOME requirements to use assist_satellite.start_conversation.?
I am trying with the Big bobbas firmware on my ESP32-S3-BOX-3s but none is able to do it.
Iâm most excited about the change in variables. This will simplify a lot of my blueprints. It should be highlighted as in beta release notes, so people can simplify their automations.

Love the areas dashboard. Lots of promise!
Are temperature and humidity sensors supposed to show up under climate? Because they do not do so for me despite being assigned to areas and showing up correctly in the generic overview dashboardâŠ

The new area dashboard is indeed nice, but now the problem with (missing) nested areas is coming (again). Fingers crossed to get a solution one day 
Creating one big main area creates too much entities, keeping subareas do not enable to assign the main area temperature to each individual subarea (for example).

Yes, link should end in iron_os not ironos. @frenck
My Sky connect update entity is displayed as unknown. Do I have to stop ZHA in order to get it working? Tried it already, but was still displayed as unknown. I have not installed multi protocol, just the standard zigbee firmware.
Great news, now I can drop some of my âglobalâ variables (fields in a dictionary), that were used only in a single script/automation!
Question to mods: does this mean, for trigger-based sensors, every variable is now visible to sensors (and not only top-level variables, as it was before)?
HA Yellow here and update entity update.home_assistant_yellow_radio_firmware also showing as Unknown

Now we have areas in entity dialogs, should we remove the room names from the entities itself?
For example, it would show âKitchen Kitchen Lightâ now.
Unkonwn means it hasnât checked yet. Give it a bit of time and it will check if your firmware is up to date.

Thank you for the update.
I have not been able to spend much time in the whole LLM/voice features HA integrated but the last time I did, voice features on an RPi were essentially too slow to be useful.
Has this changed? Is it worth setting things up or will it continue to lag too much?
Additional question: does the companion app support wake words or is it still on the todo/future list?
Calendars finally work with iCloud (shared) calendars, thank you so much.
Enegry topic, really nice! Just received my IO Meter and found out the Matter get power now with Meross, so what a great day 
Clock card⊠thanks! ButâŠ
The big size is still ridiculously small if you plan to make it a wall clock.
Could we have more options or why do we have this limitation?
I would really like to have a HUGE clock with seconds, and dynamically change the size when we want to add more content like alers, notifications events etc.
Thanks

I would like to thank you for the successful repair of the Tado integration. It works again without any problems.
I think, the clock card should be more flexible, including date support and some sort of template format, like linux date. My preference: date â+%a %-d. %b %Râ

There are multiple ways to handle it from full cloud llm to local keywords depending on yojr hardware.
No the companion does not currently wake word but you can set. It as the default agent for Android.

Realistically, I just want the ability to restore backups. Ever since backups were screwed with at the start of the year, restoring them no longer works at all. And the ticket for it, although full of "me too"s doesnât seem to be getting any attention from anyone capable of fixing anything.
Thanks for fixing tado!
