WTH why can I not manually update the location of a person?

I would like to have the ability to manually update the displayed location of people in my house. Specifically, I have my dog listed as a “person” and would like to be able to show kennel, back yard, on a walk, etc. Ideally this would be able to update with automations/ NFC tag scans.

You can by using the device_tracker.see service with an existing device_tracker. You can also create a new device_tracker and attach it to your person to get a similar affect.

Thanks for your help! Is there any way to do so without an existing device tracker? My dog has no phone haha.

Yes, use the same service

Thanks, I will try to figure out the yaml.
