Hello,
I’m starting to create wallpanels for some rooms.
I do it now just with lovelace dashboards. Before i put everything in its place i was wondering if lovelace dashboards is the way to go or is appdaemen, panel or other integrations better.
Can i get some advice from users who are working with wallpanels?.
Well, since lovelace is officially part of home assistant, I decided to go with lovelace on my wall panels. If you use an “unofficial” UI I feel you would be more likely to run into problems when updating home assistant.
With the ability to create multiple dashboards I believe the main issue with lovelace in this scenario has been officially addressed.
My 2 cents
I am using wall-panel. it’s able to show the lovelace dashboards perfectly fine and also you can get sensor data and send simple commands to it. like “speak” or change the tabs.
but I think in some old devices it is having some issues due to web-view compabilities…
thanks you for your reaction
Ok thank you and wallpanel you install on your tablet them?
I have done this with dashboards just for simplicity. Dont really see a need to go outside the home-assistant environment for this yet.
Yes tablet but you can also use old android phones I think…
I am using old android phones with smart plugs controlled by automations to control the battery charging cycles on them.
I am using a wall-mounted tablet with Wallpanel installed. It has been working without problems for a year.
