Hi,
starting from a dashboard, it will take 5 button clicks to get HA to restart.
Consider the screenshot here. Why is there an expandable menu? Why does “restart home assistant” generate another promt asking if HA should be restarted? Why does “Quick reload” indicate that there will be another promt “>”, when there is none? Should not be needed to go to settings, developer tools, restart, then restart home assistant and then restart. Can we see a better workflow for this please?
Download “Custom Sidebar” integration from HACS and try this settings. You can restart and reload with one click or one confirmation. Also you can modify according to your needs whole sidebar. And finally you can also restart without any confirmation with one click (not recommended due to mistaken actions)
Cheers,

Ooo, that’s a good tip – didn’t know it was up there.
