WHy are used entities showing in 'Unused Entities'?

Configuration
1

Hi,

I have made a few lovelace cards recently and i noticed that entities that i have included in some cards still show up in the ‘UNused Entitiees’ view. Can someone explain why this is happening and how to remove them/fix this?

Below is an exmaple (there are more!)

Custom cards don’t seem to count as ‘used’.

I have the opposite problem. No unused entities at all in the list, when there should be.

Entities from some custom cards count though and obviously some don’t - seems strange that it’s not consistent for all custom cards if that is the reason

is this a bug then?

I like ‘unused entities’ screen as i treat it like to to do list in terms of adding entities into lovelace but its unmanageable due to this issue

For you and me it is. It still works for a lot of people.

Lets see if we can work out what we have in common:
