| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
switch | Switch or outlet | |
climate | Thermostat | |
binary_sensor | Sensor (motion, contact, leak, smoke…) | |
sensor | Sensor (temperature, humidity, air quality…) | |
select | Mode picker (as switches) |
What people report
Beko/Arcelik/Grundig appliances over HomeWhiz cloud or Bluetooth; hobs, ovens and fridges were added through 2025-2026 after users supplied diagnostics. Read-only devices like air quality monitors need experimental branches.
