Merging device tracking of app and other sources

Hello - I am currently using BT tracking for users, which works well. I have now started using the android app as a secondary source of location. In the UI I see both the user and the device tracker for the app, even though I have attached the app to the user definition. I do not see the device in the known_devices.yaml so how do I merge these entities correctly? I have only installed for myself and Isla currently.

Put them in a group or use the person component.

thanks Marc. I am using the default lovelace configuration that is not modified. Do I need to move to custom rather than automatic to have this work correctly?

Lovelace is just what you see on the interface, so yes if you want to clean it up a bit you’ll need to ‘take over’.

What I was suggesting was merging the trackers in the back end of your system so that you have a combined presence detection system for each person, in a single entity_id.

This doesn’t stop the other entity_ids existing, but just means you concentrate your presence based automations on the combined one.

Hope this makes some sense :slightly_smiling_face:

This is exactly what the person integration was built for.

thanks @robbiet480 this is now clear. appreciate the prompt responses.
