It only happens on the settings page and refreshing instantly fixes it, but it happens every single time where the text is the same colour as the background.
Seeing it too! I’m digging into it, I’ll let you know if I find the issue!
Mobile and PC or just mobile?
Only occurred on PC, mobile has been fine

I upgraded to 2026.8.0 and noticed on both my desktop and laptop the settings menu and other pages are not displaying text properly. They may appear, or if not it needs f5 to get the text to appear. I am not running any themes etc, rolled back to 2026.7.4 resolves issue. Then upgraded back to 2026.8.0 and it occurs again. Tried things like incognito mode etc. Screen shot attached.

Core 2026.8.1 is out and it was probably addressed in that update. Thanks for the additional input!

I have updated to 8.1, but it seams like the problem is not solved, but if I wait i bit it will render correctly.
Did you clear the frontend cache in your compainion app and your PC browser?

I only saw it in the companion app and I cannot reproduce the glitch. I did remove the companion app and reinstall it though.

Fix has been merged for the next release:
dev ← fix-panels-missing-updates
opened 02:57PM - 07 Aug 26 UTC
## Proposed change
Some panels (Settings, Profile) could render with empty la… bels and stay that way — the text never appeared unless something unrelated triggered a re-render.
Root cause is in HassRouterPage. #53351 started setting _currentLoadProm in the "show the panel immediately" branch so pageRendered could wait for the module import. But that same field was already used by the update() skip that guards against pushing props to an outgoing panel mid-swap. Setting it here meant the freshly-created panel got starved of updates while its module loaded — so if the panel's translations finished loading during that window, the new localize never reached it, and the panel stayed blank until the next unrelated hass update.
This splits the two concerns: _currentLoadProm keeps driving pageRendered, and a dedicated _replacingPanel flag drives the update skip. The flag is only set while an outgoing panel is genuinely still shown (the loading-screen swap), so panels shown immediately keep receiving updates while they load.
Added two tests: one that an immediately-shown panel keeps getting updates while its module loads, and one that an outgoing panel does not get them during a loading-screen swap.
