Is there a way to persistently display the value of a sensor live in the Android notification tray, like weather apps and some others commonly do? I’m aware of Persistent Notifications, but they show the HA Companion icon, not a custom value; and they disappear after being tapped.
thats literally what you want but maybe you need to make use of other features in addition to this.
you can change it to any MDI icon
use persistent with sticky

Thanks! I can also use icon_url.
This doesn’t show up in the status bar but as the small icon in the notification itself.

Oh, got it. Didn’t get to test that far because ended up thinking that it would be too much work creating the icons or generating them dynamically somehow for each value of the temperature sensor.
