I found this conversation because I logged into my server in Home Assistant app and can’t see the app settings anymore. They only appeared once when I wasn’t logged to any server (at the welcome screen).
So I ask the repeated question again:
WHERE are the app settings/configuration located in the app in 2025? Because I don’t see it anywhere.
your missing the hamburger menu on the left side in the screenshot, check your frontend configuration looks like you are hiding it. The menu moved to Settings > Companion App and only accessible from the app
That’s a fresh install of the app, and it’s like that all the time.
When I had two servers connected at some point, I had a settings button in my notifications. But it’s gone when I have just one server. Currently I can only access the settings, when I can’t connect to my server.
I use the app from f-droid.
Could you show me how it should look like?
top left corner should have the hamburger menu, how else do you access automations and setting up devices etc…?
do you have a custom dashboard? or did you setup a view as a subview? thats the only way i know its possible to lose that button.
Personally I didn’t setup any devices as I don’t use the admin login - somebody else did that like 5 years ago (or more).
Is it possible that we lost that button because something was changed on the server side? Because it looks like other people who connect to the same server don’t have the settings button too.
But that’s strange, because I want to access my phone’s app settings really, like my device name, sensors I share or connect to another server - for example. Why would this be depended on a server if it’s related to my phone?
Looks like you need to speak to whoever set up your access and ask them wth they did to lock you out of the sidebar.
The owner of the system can install custom plugins and hide the hamburger menu for every user or for users that are not admins. If you are not the owner or admin, it would be difficult for you to remove the restrictions.
You can detect if something was hidden with some plugin if you connect to your phone through ADB. Follow these instructions and you can debug the WebView of Home Assistant and detect what is hiding the hamburger menu.
