I have an annoying issue where the app keeps changing to the Overview Dashboard even though I have the Overview Dashboard hidden and a different dashboard set as the default within the app. I haven’t been able to pinpoint when it happens, seems like any time the network changes, but it also seems r…

Just adding my name to the list here. On latest HASS version but this is still happening, even more so on my GF’s iPhone. This is confusing for non technical users and terrible for the acceptance factor… This shouldn’t need a workaround like ‘copy everything to the overview dashboard’. I want a das…

If you want to improve your HAF “Home Approval Factor” use the built in functions of the Companion App. FOR ANDROID Android Shoutcuts (Pinned Shortcut) STEP 1. Settings STEP 2. Companion App STEP 3. Manage Shortcuts [Slide1] STEP 4. Scroll down to Pinned Shortcuts and add a shortcut the page …

@Chykan what does that have to do with the topic. Anyway, I am also experiencing this issue. Ongoing for 2 years now. I have tried everything – locking the app to the internal URL, using the same WiFi each time, etc. I have no idea what triggers it, but every week or couple of weeks I’ll log in and…

As per Edwin’s advice above , edit the the overview and make it the main page you want to land on. If you don’t use the auto generated dashboard then there is no reason to keep it. If you do still want an auto generated dashboard for some unknown reason then create a new auto gen dashboard as well a…

I did not see the Home Assistant Companion for Apple Tag, until now. As this happens on both device Android and iOS devices, I will leave the Android instructions up there just in case someone lands on this topic “App Keeps Resetting to Default Dashboard” The pinned shortcuts work perfectly for me…

Copying all the yaml from the desired dashboard to the overview dash does work. However, I have different dashboards for my wife and I. I’ve set the overview to her dashboard. but now I need to select my own dash as default almost every time I open the app. Something is deleting the local settings c…

@tom_l @CKan you are misunderstanding the issue. This thread is about a real bug. Posting workarounds just adds noise and distracts from getting it fixed. They don’t address the core problem. The problem is that every single user setting gets reset: dashboard, theme, sidebar order, time zone - ever…

Has an issue been raised on the GitHub for the iOS app? [image] GitHub - home-assistant/iOS: :iphone: Home Assistant for Apple platforms :iphone: Home Assistant for Apple platforms Also here [image] Discord - Group Chat That’s All Fun & Game…

Nasty bug! It was time for me to catch up on core updates, so I made about five versions in a row, and after each one, my iPhone app would reset. Hidden dashboards, their order, and theme. Some version introduced the ability to save these settings using browser_mod, but unfortunately it made no dif…

Anything stored in localStorage gets affected, which is where Browser ID, default panel etc is stored. For iOS Safari is the real culprit here, well their desire to make your life misery in the name of privacy. You can minimise this by setting your iOS devices network address to fixed rather than ro…

Morning All,

The below solution is not out of the box but I am pretty sure it will give you the ultimate control you need. No matter what device or user profile you are using.

There is a very comprehensive set of options, most optional. Thanks to @elchininet
