Link to Companion App Setting

Configuration
1

Is there a way to directly link the companion app settings in a card

for example:

tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /config

That can be used to get to the settings of home assistant, what about to get to the companion app link that would be in config if you opened home assistant in the app?

Been looking for the same thing.

2 years later. Did you solve this?
Use case: Using kiosk mode to hide header and sidebar for my family members. But I want to be able to change their app settings without turning off kiosk mode.
Maybe someone has a better way to solve this?

not without submitting a frontend feature request, there is no direct URL the frontend communicates to the app to open settings so you cant do that on your own without code changes.

As above unfortunately no proper solution still, I’m guessing not many want this feature but I think it should be a basic feature although never got round to submitting any official request

At the moment I just use:

tap_action:
  action: navigate
  navigation_path: /config

And then after that you can click companion app but I understand for family members you may not want them to have settings access so this is not a perfect solution

I’ve decided to finally put in the feature request, please vote for it:

this only works if the user is an admin, regular users can only access app settings via the sidebar only.

I noticed that /config only works for admins.
I will try a work around with browser_mod-sidebar per user and maybe an input helper to show/hide it for non-admins.
