Edit the dashboard

First contact with the Overview dashboard

The procedure below is optional. The idea is to learn some basics on changing the dashboard.

To change a card on the Overview dashboard

1. To view your dashboard, go to Overview.

   • Your dashboard might not have much on it yet.
   • If you have smart home devices in your home, some may have been connected automatically.
   • In this example, some Bluetooth temperature sensors and an AV receiver connected automatically.
   • Some cards are there by default, such as the weather, a card for the person who set up the system, and the text-to-speech service.

   

2. To view the weather forecast for the next few days, select the weather card.

   

3. To change the units used on the card, select the cogwheel.

   • Change the units if you like.
   • Do not change any of the other settings for now.
   • Once you are done, select Update.

4. To change the type of dashboard card, select the three-dots, then Device info.

   • Under Sensors, select Add to dashboard, then Pick different card.

5. From the list, select Weather forecast.

6. Select the details to be shown on the card.

   • Save your changes
   • You now see the forecast card on the dashboard.

7. Now let’s delete the other weather card.

   • In the top right corner, select the three-dot menu, then select Edit dashboard.
   • On the card, select the three-dot menu and select Delete.

8. Finally, we want to move the weather card to the top left corner.

   • On the bottom of the card, select the number or use the minus button to enter 1.
   • Repeat this on other cards, if you want to move them around.
   • When you are done, in the top right corner, select Done.

9. Congratulations! You have completed your first dashboard customization.
