Haven’t seen this yet so I thought I’d throw it out there. I’m scraping the latest version of the Home Assistant app on the Google Playstore and comparing it to the current version sensor in the android mobile app to let me know if the apps on our phones need updating. There might be a better way to get the version off github with a rest sensor or something but this works for now.
sensor:
- platform: scrape
resource: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=io.homeassistant.companion.android&hl=en_CA&gl=US
name: HA Companion Latest Version
select: ".htlgb span"
index: 3
binary_sensor:
- platform: template
sensors:
jphone_latest_version:
friendly_name: Jason Phone App Version
unique_id: jphone_latest_version
icon_template: "{{ 'mdi:check-circle' if is_state('binary_sensor.jphone_latest_version','off') else 'mdi:alert-circle' }}"
device_class: problem
value_template: "{{ states('sensor.ha_companion_latest_version') != states('sensor.jphone_current_version') }}"
attribute_templates:
current: "{{ states('sensor.jphone_current_version') }}"
latest: "{{ states('sensor.ha_companion_latest_version') }}"
