Thanks, [@frenck] +- [@balloob] took a deep dive into the world of media players and made sure + many more of them now work the media browser and play media action! + If you use: [Bluesound], [Denon HEOS], [forked-daapd], [Linn / OpenHome], + [Logitech Squeezebox], [Music Player Daemon (MPD)], [Panasonic Viera], + [UniFi Protect] or [Yamaha MusicCast], you can now use the media browser! +- Want to update the appearance of a binary sensor? You can now do that! + When you edit the entity in the UI, you can select how it would show up. No + need to customize `device_class` in YAML anymore. Thanks [@zsarnett]! +- The [Material Design Icons] have been updated! Check out all + [these beautiful new icons] we can use now! Thanks, [@goyney]! +- Our analytics integration now sent if you are using SSL certificates + in Home Assistant yes or no. Of course, + {% my general title="only if you have enabled Analytics" %}. Thanks for + enabling it 💙! +- [Timers] can now restore/survive their state accross restarts, awesome work + [@raman325]! Each timer now has a configuration option to enable restore. +- [@epenet] has been cranking out lot of improvement for the [Samsung TV] + integration this month!

Native [Hue] groups suppport! Thanks to + Signify who implemented our request for this. This means Home Assistant can + now control groups as a whole instead of per light.
