Summary
This release continues aggressive memory optimization efforts aimed at resolving boot loop issues for all configurations, including support for Bluetooth add-ons. Additional bug fixes improve overall system stability.
Breaking Changes
Notification Text Sensors Removed
Two notification-related text sensors have been removed as part of memory optimization efforts:
- Notification Label sensor (page title)
- Notification Message sensor (page body)
Why removed: These sensors were redundant - they reflected back to Home Assistant the same information that was just sent via action calls from Home Assistant.
Impact: Most users won't notice any difference since these sensors provided duplicate information.
Need these sensors? If your automations rely on these sensors, please report this as an issue on GitHub. We're happy to help with either:
- Workarounds that don't require the sensors
- Adding them back as optional customizations
For current supported actions and API capabilities, consult the [API documentation](docs/api.md).
Key Improvements
Aggressive Memory Optimization
Focused memory reduction effort targeting complete boot loop resolution across all configurations, including support for memory-intensive add-ons like Bluetooth.
Optimization goals:
- Universal boot reliability - resolve boot loops for all users
- Bluetooth compatibility - enable stable operation with Bluetooth add-ons
- Maximum memory efficiency - aggressive reduction of non-essential components
Progress status: Significant memory freed up, with more optimization work planned for upcoming releases.
Additional Bug Fixes
Resolved several reported issues continuing the stability improvement efforts from recent releases.
Bug fixes include:
- Various edge case handling improvements
- Enhanced system reliability
- Better error recovery mechanisms
Current Status & Goals
Primary objective: Enable stable operation with Bluetooth add-ons through continued memory optimization.
Ongoing work: Additional memory optimizations planned for upcoming releases to achieve full Bluetooth compatibility.
If you're currently stable - no immediate action needed. These optimizations benefit all users by improving boot reliability and system stability.
Technical Details
This release represents a focused approach to memory management, prioritizing essential functionality while aggressively removing redundant or non-critical components. The goal is achieving reliable operation across all add-on configurations, particularly memory-intensive ones like Bluetooth.
Result: Significant memory savings contributing toward universal boot reliability, with continued optimization work planned to achieve full add-on compatibility.
Continued aggressive memory optimization targeting universal boot reliability and Bluetooth add-on support.
