Feature Request: Configuration option for display name and state

Open manonstreet opened this issue 10 months ago • 5 comments

The sensor.name_location entity currently has a display name of "Name is at Location", with a state of either: Home, Away, Just Arrived, or Just Left.

In my setup, I am using the provided location entities in a glance card and the display name is too long, and the specific zone where the person is located is not visible. I still prefer to use this integration's location entity however for the geocoded information visible when clicking on the entity, as well as the transitioning from home state status.

It would be great if this integration could add a configuration option for the sensor information to mimic a person entity (with the added benefit of Just Arrived and Just Left). Specifically, when this proposed setting is turned on, person_name is used as the entity display name and reported_state is used as the state value.
