I am using several inputs to determine if a person is home or away. I would like to update the state of my device_tracker for my entity to the results of my tests (so that I can use the nice picture and Home/Away text). Is this possible?
I found a suggestion on the forum to just put the different entities into a group. It’s worked great for me. If any of them are “home” then my “group” is home.
That sort of works, but what I’m really looking for is the picture with the state (in orange) to show up with uses the status from multiple trackers - not a grouping of statuses.
Thanks for the reply!

To answer the original question, you can set the state of a device tracker using the “see” service:
