Dashboard - Kiosk - Toggle

Hello Everyone,

I’ve created a Raspberry PI 5 in Kiosk Mode.

I’ve followed this tutorial
Setting up a Raspberry Pi as a Home Assistant Kiosk - Pi My Life Up

So far so good.

RPi is connected to a desktop screen (1920x1080). It is rather small to get a lot of information on one screen so thé idea is toggle between tabs with an interval to show more dashboards.

My first guess is to tackle this in RPi settings so I asked AI to help :slight_smile:
It came up with a sort of loop that kills chromium browser and reload another url. That kindy works but it is not fancy at all.

So maybe HA has already a solution for my question.

Greetings

Christoph

Hello,
myccpay com
If you want to display multiple Home Assistant dashboards on a Raspberry Pi screen and rotate between them automatically, there are smoother options than killing and restarting Chromium. Home Assistant itself supports view rotation using the auto_rotate option in Lovelace, which cycles through different dashboard views at a set interval without interrupting the browser. For more advanced control, the browser_mod custom component can send commands to your RPi’s browser, allowing automations to switch dashboards seamlessly. Alternatively, dedicated solutions like FullPageOS or DashMachine provide polished, kiosk-style display with automatic cycling of dashboards. Using these methods ensures a smooth, professional-looking rotation of your dashboards without flicker or manual intervention.

Wow you’re a fast :wink:

So auto_rotate tis the key word ?

Can you give a hint/blog/url ?
