"Using the app as a launcher"
I'll admit, the idea of using Home Assistant (npub1hn2…kl6z) as a "Launcher" caught me off guard for a second. My pseudo-decaffeinated brain was trying to work out how I'd use the #HomeAssistant app as a launcher replacement on my phone. It took me longer than I care to admit to figure out this will replace some 3rd party apps to use phones/tablets as Home Assistant screens. Now that I've figured out what they're talking about, great idea! Love it!
