- Sensors can be enabled per server, on iPhone and Apple Watch. Existing servers keep their current selection; new servers start with none enabled.
- Adding a second server asks which location and sensor data it should receive before registering.
- Optional setting to show a notification's actions when it is tapped (Settings > Notifications, off by default).
- Live Activities accept an optional relevance_score to influence Dynamic Island and Lock Screen ordering.
- Apple Watch Assist uses the on-device speech-to-text and text-to-speech settings from the iPhone.
- The Closest Server row shows whether it was chosen by Wi-Fi network or location.
Improved
- Works around dashboard lag on iOS 27 when a server is reached over plain HTTP. Can be turned off in Settings > General.
- Device sensors such as battery, storage and connectivity are now listed under Diagnostic in Home Assistant.
- Onboarding no longer stores the current Wi-Fi as a home network automatically.
- App Shortcuts in Spotlight use a different icon per action.
- Force closing the app clears the remembered page, so the next launch opens the default page, with also an opt-in setting to receive a push notification alerting that force closing the app causes location updates to be delayed.
Fixed
- Assist kept spinning when the pipeline failed to start; the error is now shown.
- Actions from the Apple Watch could run late and be reported as failed.
- Shortcuts synced via iCloud failed with "No server provided" on single-server setups.
- Shortcut navigation paths starting with "/" opened the dashboard instead.
- App icon shortcuts could show entity IDs instead of names.
- Assist prompt edits that moved the item to another server were not saved.… more - 📈Home Assistant entered the top 10AndroidTop Free · House & Home · AU

Review momentum
71/100
faster than 74% of House and home apps
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
