{% note %}
**Welcome to the beta release notes for Home Assistant 2024.12** 🎉
<br />
Please note that these release notes are a work in progress. 👷‍♀️ We will be
completing them over the next couple of days. Not all features might be final
yet, and some features _**may not** make it into the final release_.
<br />
**Want to help test the beta?** Awesome! ❤️ We have documented how you
[can join our beta channel and install the beta here](/common-tasks/os/#running-a-beta-version).
<br />
While running the beta, we highly recommend joining our _#beta_ channel on
the [Home Assistant Discord chat](/join-chat)! 💬 Most developers and beta
testers are in this channel during the beta period to share experiences, ideas,
and iterate over new features, fine-tuning them before the final release.
It's a really fun place to hang out. 😎
<br />
**Reporting issues**: As this is a beta test, you might encounter unexpected
behavior or issues. 🐞 We use the GitHub issue tracker to track beta issues.
You can find our issue trackers and the reported issues during beta here:
<br />
- [Report(ed) beta **dashboards/UI/frontend** issues](https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/milestone/126)
- [Report(ed) beta **integrations/automations/backend/core** issues](https://github.com/home-assistant/core/milestone/706)
- [Report(ed) beta **documentation** issues](https://github.com/home-assistant/home-assistant.io/milestone/133)
🙏 When reporting issues, **make sure to mention the exact beta version you are
running** in the issue description. This will help us identify and track the
issue correctly. Read more about [reporting issues here](/help/reporting_issues/).
<br />
Issues introduced in the beta are processed with priority. 🔝

Home Assistant 2024.12! 🎄
Enjoy the (beta) release!
Holidays are coming, and it is time for the last release of the year! 🎉
**2024** has been a crazy year for Home Assistant. Not just in terms of features
like [drag-and-drop dashboards], [organization capabilities] like labels, and
the countless improvements to our voice efforts. But evenmore in the growth of
our lovely community as we rised up to become
[the #1 open source project on GitHub]! ❤️
However, the year ain't over yet! This month, we want to learn about all your
_"What the heck?!"_ moments with Home Assistant. Tell us about any little
annoyances, bugs, ideas, or suggestions. You can read all about it in
[the WTH announcement blog], or join the conversation [on our WTH forums]!
Honestly, **the biggest announcement of the year has yet to come though**... 🤫
I'm pretty sure it is voice hardware related 😉 So make sure you aren't
missing [the live stream on 19 December]! 📺 You will not be disappointed! 🎁
Before you check out everything in this release, I just want to close this
year with a big thank you to every single person in our community, which
includes you!
**Thank you for using Home Assistant!** ❤️
Happy holidays! And for the last time in 2024: Enjoy the release!
