WTH why does the todo-list card take up so much space?

The default todo-list card takes up far too much space on dashbaords.

Firstly, I would kindly suggest hiding the ‘Active’ label when the ‘Hide completed items’ option in the configuration is enabled.

Secondly, I think the ‘Add item’ input field should only be visible if the plus icon is clicked. The plus icon can initially be displayed on the top-right-side of the header containing the to-do card’s name.

Finally, a collapsable “show more” section for lists that are very long would be appreciated. An alternative could possibly be to allow the user to set a number to limit the amount of entries displayed, and to add Tap/Hold behaviours, to enable users to navigate to the To-do lists page.

Thanks.

I love HA but most default cards look like they were designed in the 90s, the TODO list card included. Mushroom cards brought some well-needed relief to the visual language of HA dashboards but unfortunately there isn’t a specialized TODO list mushroom card… yet :(.

I agree with all your points / suggestions for the default TODO card. And we need a compact view. Currently each item has massive padding.
