Roller blinds intergration

I hope someone can help me out there. I have built a roller blind control as detailed in a YouTube video by DrZzs entitled DIY Smart Window Shades, via Esphome. All well and good and can use the integrated lovelace UI to create a card to operate them. I use hadashboard on another tablet and want to include my shade control into it. I have tried using the cover widget with no success. I have read somewhere to create a script which I have done and tried the script widget, still no luck. I have spent 3 full days on this trying various combinations and still getting nowhere. I,m running Appdaemon 4.0.2.3 and Home Assistant 0.107.0. Anyone who can point me in the general direction? On lovelace UI I have a card showing 2 arrows, 1 up and 1 down plus a stop button, this is what I,m trying to include in my dashboard
