Out of the box, the add-on will not automatically renew your certificate. In fact, it only starts, tries to get/renew your certificte, and then stops. It's up to you to manually start it again whenever your certificate comes close to expiry.
However, you can automate this process using Home Assistant.
Use this in your `automations.yaml` to attempt certificate renewal each day at midnight:
```yaml
- id: letsencrypt-renewal
alias: "Let's Encrypt Renewal"
trigger:
- platform: time
at: '00:00:00'
action:
- service: hassio.addon_restart
data:
addon: core_letsencrypt
```
