Description
Home Assistant 2026.8 makes some significant changes to how devices are combined, etc. Figured this might affect the functionality of this integration, so wanted to give you a heads-up.
Public release notes: https://rc.home-assistant.io/blog/2026/07/22/release-20268/#a-cleaner-way-to-handle-your-devices
Developer Blog details: https://developers.home-assistant.io/blog/2026/07/21/device-registry-single-config-entry/
I have *not* tested 2026.8. Everything *may* work fine. But given some of the warnings around this integration, I figured it was worth bringing this up.
