Friendly Name

ESPHome now supports setting a friendly_name which is sent to Home Assistant. This name will be used for the config entry, the device name, and will be automatically prefixed to all of the entities where needed by Home Assistant.

Note

If you opt to use this new friendly name, take note that you should remove any friendly name (substitition) that you currently prepend onto entity name in YAML.

esphome:
  name: living-room
  friendly_name: Living Room

sensor:
  - platform: dht
    pin: GPIO5
    name: Temperature
