The homeassistant web client and home-assistant.io both use the same favicon, so I can’t tell which of my tabs are homeassistant itself and which are documentation tabs. I have many tabs open and see favicons but no titles. I’m in the Chrome browser on a Mac.
For example, the 1st, 2nd, and 4th tabs below are my homeassistant instance; the 3rd is a home-assistant.io doc page.
It’d be great if either homeassistant or home-assistant.io could use a different icon, perhaps colored a little differently. For icon ideas see the the iOS companion app (Settings > Companion app > General > App Icon).
There’s also a post in Feature Requests, which mentions the workaround of the hass-favicon integration (but it’s unofficial, in HACS, and may not be currently working).
The fav-icon custom integration isn’t working for me, on HA 2024.12.0, using the latest version of the integration (10.4, last changed in 2021).
I see the same problem as hass-favicon issue #37 “Home Assistant 2024.9 compatibility (async_update_entry)”. My log shows “AttributeError: options cannot be changed directly, use async_update_entry instead”. This prevents it from changing the favicon.
It looks like a pull request to fix that was submitted a couple weeks ago but the maintainer hasn’t responded yet.
