What's new in Kiosk Satellite 2026.8.40
New Feature: Dashboard Haptics / Vibration
- A new Haptics group under Home Assistant Configuration adds an Enable haptics toggle, on by default: tapping a button, switch, chip or any card with a tap action gives a short click from the vibration motor, and dragging a slider or the thermostat card's temperature wheel ticks softly at every step, so a brightness drag feels like a dented knob. Custom card sliders (Mushroom included) tick too.
- A Vibration strength selector (Light, Medium, Strong) lets you tune how hard it hits, with slider ticks always one level softer than button clicks. The detection is event driven inside the page with no polling and no layout work, the buzz is the platform's own tuned click effect driven straight through the vibrator so the system's separate touch vibration setting cannot silently mute it, and devices without a vibration motor simply ignore the toggle. Every change applies immediately, no reload needed.
Bug Fixes
- The updater can no longer reinstall the release the device already runs when two consecutive release APKs happen to be byte-identical in size. The downloaded APK now carries the release version in its cache name and leftovers are swept before the check, so a stale download can never impersonate the new one.
