Sorry to say but idea of permanent edit buttons on carplay dashboards is ridiculous.
They take screen estate. They look the same as other HA entities.
Finally these are intended to be used once and never again.
Look at the screnshot and judge yourself.
Not speaking about doubtful usability while a phone sits your pocket, providing better user experience than many in-car displays
Lol, I looked at the screenshot first and thought, âWTH? Who thought it was a good idea to put these giant âEditâ and âAdd Itemâ cards on the dashboard?â
I donât understand either.
I raised an issue having a luck to get an answer. they do not however agree with us that itâs bad design decission.
The good news is, that I convinced devs to add option to disable these buttons. Supposingly itâs already implemented.
My colleagues make a comment joking that we hope it wonât be another button on this dashboard
I can confirm that HA app available through the Testflight has an option to disable edit buttons.
Also an option to create own tabs/dashboards next to QuickView is available. Itâs great if one wants to organize entities viewed/controlled from the car
