Manage Entities for Google Assistant integration - Toggle Bug

Sorry, im pretty sure this isnt where I should raise what I think is a bug, but I do not know where I should.

I use the Manage Entities section for Google Assistant to toggle whether or not specific entities are exposed to Google. This works great and is much easier than defining everything in yaml.

However, when I use my phone to access this page, the scrolling action on my phone (touch screen), is toggling entities on/off when I touch to scroll. This is with me specifically not pressing where the toggle is, but chances are that I will click somewhere on the card when I start to scroll.

I have just tested on a PC that clicking anywhere on the Entity card toggles the toggle and it does, as long as you do not click on the title. However, everywhere else in Home Assistant, only actually clicking on the toggle would toggle it, which I believe is the correct behaviour for it.

Basically, if I go into Manage Entities in my phone I have no idea what entities will be exposed to Google by the time I back out of it as I will toggle stuff on and off accidentally and if I try and scroll to double check, i just make the issue twice as bad!!

Thanks

Is that a documented feature somewhere? I use yaml for this and wasn’t aware of any alternative… or is this a Nabu casa cloud feature?

Hello,
Yes, I believe its an integration of Nabu Casa, however even Nabu Casa only make reference to the instructions of setting up via yaml ;

I think this toggle entity feature came about only a couple of months ago.

[UPDATE] - https://www.home-assistant.io/blog/2019/06/05/release-94/ it came out in 0.94
