## Changing the precision of a sensor
|
||||
|
||||
Got a sensor that has too many decimals in its numeric value for your use case?
|
||||
Would you like it to be rounded to fewer decimals or maybe even a
|
||||
nice round number?
|
||||
|
||||
Just ~~create a template sensor~~ change its precision directly from the UI!

||||

Previously, this would generally need a template sensor and would have resulted
|
||||
in having two entities, which is far from efficient from a resource perspective
|
||||
and not that user-friendly either.
|
||||
|
||||
This new setting makes it easier. It is a true entity setting, which means that
|
||||
changing the precision will actually affect the entity state. It applies to
|
||||
your dashboard and everything that uses the entity, including automations
|
||||
and recorded history.

||||
|
||||
## Grouping sensors

But wait, there is more sensor goodness in this release. The

[group helper](/integrations/group) now support sensors too!

Sensor groups can combine entities with a numeric state, like

[sensors](/integrations/sensor), [number](/integrations/number),
