 ## Overview

 Each ESPHome device must have a **unique name**. This name is important for mDNS announcements, ensuring that the device can be properly discovered, quickly reconnected when it comes online or wakes from deep sleep (for devices that support deep sleep), and correctly linked to the [**ESPHome Device Builder Add-on**](https://my.home-assistant.io/redirect/supervisor_addon/?addon=5c53de3b_esphome&repository_url=https%3A%2F%2Fgithub.com%2Fesphome%2Fhome-assistant-addon). It's also crucial for **DHCP discovery** if mDNS is not available.
 
-Using duplicate names can lead to connection issues, failed discovery, and unexpected behavior with both the integration and the add-on.

+## Another iteration of the backup system
+
+In our [January release](/blog/2025/01/03/release-20251/#overhaul-of-the-backup-system),
+we did the first overhaul of the backup system. In the [February release](/blog/2025/02/05/release-20252/#iterating-on-backups)
+we did an iteration based on your feedback. This release, we dedicated some more
+time to once more iterate and improve backups even further.
+
+Let's dive in!
+
+### Per location backup retention policy settings
+
+This release adds a much requested feature: the ability to set a backup retention
+policy per location. This is particularly useful for those of you who have
+multiple locations configured in Home Assistant.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-backups-retention-per-location.png" />
+
+It might be that one of your backups locations has more storage space than
+another, or that you want to keep more backups in one location than another.
+For example, maybe you have space to store the last 3 backups in your Google
+Drive, but you want to keep 25 backups on your local NAS server.
+
+### Backup before upgrading the Home Assistant Operating System
+
+If you are running the Home Assistant Operating System, updating the operating
+system is as easy as the click of a button. And while the upgrade process has
+a fallback mechanism in case the upgrade process fails, it is always a good
+idea to have a backup before you start the upgrade process.
+
+To help you with that, the update dialog for the Home Assistant Operating System
+now includes the option to create a backup before starting the upgrade process.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-backup-before-upgrade-home-assistant-operating-system.png" />
+
+This way, you can be sure that you have a backup of your system before
+upgrading, even if something goes wrong beyond the safe guards of the
+operating system upgrade.
+
+### Set the default backup preference for upgrades
+
+The above option to update before upgrade is great, but the feedback on the
+toggle to create a backup before upgrade is mixed. Some of you prefer to always
+backup before upgrading, while others rely on their scheduled backups and don't
+want to be bothered with the backup process every time they upgrade a part
+of Home Assistant.
+
+To please both groups, we have added a new setting to the backup settings page
+to set the default behavior for the backup before upgrade toggle.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-backups-select-preference-backup-before-update.png" />
+
+When you set the option to "Backup before upgrade", the toggle will be enabled
+by default, otherwise it will be default to disabled. There is an additional
+option to set this behavior for add-ons as well, so you can tweak it to your
+liking.
+
+### Waiting for the backup to finish on restarts
+
+Another small improvement, but one an unimportant one, is that if you restart
+Home Assistant while a backup is in progress, the restart will wait for the
+backup to finish before proceeding.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-backups-prevents-restart-when-in-progress.png" />
+
+This prevents the unintended situation where a backup is in progress, and you
+abort the process by restarting Home Assistant.
+
+## Thousands of new text-to-speech voice variants for Home Assistant Cloud subscribers
+
+You are are subscribed to [Home Assistant Cloud](https://www.nabucasa.com), you
+not just get [backup storage included](https://www.nabucasa.com/config/backups/),
+but you also get access to the absolute [best in class text-to-speech](https://www.nabucasa.com/config/tts/)
+available. If you haven't tried it yet, you should!
+
+This release, extends the already staggering amount of text-to-speech voices
+and above all now include voice variants and styles. This means that you can
+now choose between different voice styles and tones, such as "friendly",
+"angry", "sad", "wispher", etc; allowing you to customize your announcements to
+fit the mood and context of the situation.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-new-voice-variants-for-home-assistant-cloud.png" />

+
+## Picking entities
+
+{% important %}
+
+**During beta testing, we'd like to collect feedback from you on this change.**
+
+Please help us out, by filling out this small survey to share your thoughts
+on this change after testing it out.
+
+✍️ [Feedback survey](https://usabi.li/do/nfv79h4wcf6q/kioaqa)
+
+Thanks a ton! 🙏 ❤️
+
+{% endimportant %}
+
+We are working on improving the context of things shown in the UI. This to
+ensure you always know which device or entity you are looking at, no matter
+where you are in the Home Assistant interface.
+
+In the last release, we already had a small noteworthy change regarding this.
+We added the device and area to the entity information dialogs, so you always
+exactly know which entity you are viewing.
+
+This release, we improve context on the entity pickers in our UI. This is the
+dropdown you see when you select an entity in, for example, an card, automation,
+or script. This picker will now show the device and area name as well!
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-improved-entity-picker.png" />
+
+This slowly will remove the need for you to rename every single entity or
+device to include this information in the name of the entity.
+
+You might notice that the entity ID isn't shown in the picker anymore. We think
+we are at a point where many uses solely rely on the UI and the entity ID is
+not needed anymore. However, if you do prefer to see the entity ID, you can
+enable it in your profile settings.
+
+## Z-Wave Smart Start and long range support
+
+We are providing quite a few enhancements to the Z-Wave integration and
+experience this release. Our commercial partner [Nabu Casa](https://nabucasa.com)
+is working on a–not so secret–Z-Wave antenna, and we want to ensure that
+Home Assistant is ready for it; providing the best possible user experience
+possible.
+
+This release, we improved the whole experience in setting up new Z-Wave devices,
+adding support for Z-Wave smart start to scan a QR code from your new device
+to magically add it to Home Assistant; and most noteworthy, we added support
+for Z-Wave long range devices directly in Home Assistant!
+
+**TODO**: Add screenshots or little video of this this process.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-zwave-long-range.png" />
+

+
+### Integration quality scale achievements
+
+One thing we are incredibly proud of in Home Assistant is our
+[integration quality scale]. This scale helps us and our contributors to ensure
+integrations are of high quality, maintainable, and provide the best possible
+user experience.
+
+This release, we celebrate several {% term integrations %} that have improved
+their quality scale:
+
+- **4 integrations reached platinum** 🏆
+  - [Ohme], thanks to [@dan-r]
+  - [Vodafone Station], thanks to [@chemelli74]
+  - [ESPHome], thanks to [@bdraco]
+  - [Enphase Envoy], thanks to [@catsmanac]
+
+- **2 integrations reached silver** 🥈
+  - [IMGW-PIB], thanks to [@bieniu]
+  - [SMLIGHT], thanks to [@tl-sl]
+
+- **2 integrations reached bronze** 🥉
+  - [Whirlpool], thanks to [@abmantis]
+  - [UptimeRobot], thanks to [@chemelli74]
+
+This is a huge achievement for these integrations and their maintainers. The
+effort and dedication required to reach these quality levels is significant,
+as it involves extensive testing, documentation, error handling, and often
+complete rewrites of parts of the integration.
+

+### Now available to set up from the UI
+
+While most {% term integrations %} can be set up directly from the Home Assistant
+user interface, some were only available using YAML configuration. We keep moving
+more integrations to the UI, making them more accessible for everyone
+to set up and use.
+
+The following integration is now available via the Home Assistant UI:
+
+- **[STIEBEL ELTRON]**, done by [@ThyMYthOS]
+
+[@ThyMYthOS]: https://github.com/ThyMYthOS
+[STIEBEL ELTRON]: /integrations/stiebel_eltron
+
+### Farewell to the following
+
+The following {% term integrations %} are also no longer available as
+of this release:
+
+- **Oncue by Kohler** has been removed because the app by Kohler has been
+  discontinued.
+
+## Other noteworthy changes
+
+There are many more improvements in this release; here are some of the other
+noteworthy changes this release:
+
+- Support for the [Matter] 1.4 water heater devices types have been added.
+  Thanks, [@lboue]!
+- When setting up a new device in Home Assistant, you can now directly name
+  it during the setup process. Nice! Thanks, [@bramkragten]!
+- Media players now have an action to search using the `media_player.search_media`
+  action. Thanks, [@zweckj]!
+- [@piitaya] added a `device_name` template function to get the name of a device
+  in Home Assistant. Cool!
+- The `floor_id` and `area_id` template methods have been enhanced by [@formatBCE]
+  to also look for floors or area aliases. Awesome!
+- We new have support for trigger-based template entities for switches and
+  lights. Amazing work [@Petro31]!
+- [@Petro31] wasn't done yet though, he also added support for modern YAML-syntax
+  to the cover template entities. Nice!
+- [@frenck] added support for detecting Home Assistant Container installation
+  types not running in host networking mode. This is important for
+  Home Assistant to function properly. It raises a repair issue if it detects
+  this.

+## Improved UI experience when using templates in automations & scripts
+
+If you are a power-user, using templates in your automations and script, you
+are probably familiar with the fact that the UI falls back to using YAML for
+any action block that contains a template.
+
+[@karwosts] to the rescue! He has worked on a solution to improve this
+experience.
+
+How this looked before this release:
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-template-automation-old.png" />
+
+So, instead of falling back to pure YAML for the whole block, it now only
+falls back to a code editor for fields that contain an action template. This
+means the rest of the UI–for all other action fields–remains intact and you
+can still use the UI to edit the rest.
+
+This is how the same as above looks now:
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-template-automation-new.png" />
+
+This is a great improvement for power users, as it allows you to use the UI
+for most of the automation or script, while still being able to use templates
+where needed. It also makes it easier to understand the automation or script,
+as you can see the context of the template in the UI.
+
+Great improvement there [@karwosts]! 🙌
+
+[@karwosts]: https://github.com/karwosts
+
+## Pasting automations and scripts YAML directly into the UI
+
+Found this great automation or script example in our documentation or the
+[community forums](https://community.home-assistant.io/), but it is shared in
+YAML format? No problem! You can now paste the YAML directly into the UI.
+
+When you are editing an automation, you can now simply paste the YAML directly
+into the UI editor and it will be converted to the UI format, regardless
+if the paste example is a full blown automation or just a single trigger,
+condition, or action.
+
+**TODO:** Add small movie clip on how this works.
+
+An amazing quality of live improvement, contributed by [@jpbede]! Thank you! 🙌

+## Discover what Home Assistant is discovering
+
+Home Assistant is constantly scanning your network for new devices and
+integrations. using all sorts of discovery protocols. This greatly improves the
+user experience, as it allows you to easily add new devices to your Home
+Assistant installation.
+
+However, sometimes, you might want to know what Home Assistant is seeing
+or wondering why a certain device is not being discovered. To help with that
+[@bdraco] added browsing tools for the DHCP, mDNS/ZeroConf and UPnP/SSDP, that
+allow you to see what Home Assistant is seeing. It is quite technical, but
+it is a great way to see what is going on in your network.
+
+<img class="no-shadow" alt="TODO: Replace." src="/images/blog/2025-05/temp-discovery-browsers.png" />
+
+You can find these new tools in **Settings** > **System** > **Network**. On the
+bottom of that page, you will find the ability to browse all the things
+Home Assistant is seeing on your network for each of the discovery protocols.

+## Backward-incompatible changes
+
+We do our best to avoid making changes to existing functionality that might
+unexpectedly impact your Home Assistant installation. Unfortunately, sometimes,
+it is inevitable.
+
+We always make sure to document these changes to make the transition as easy as
+possible for you. This release has the following backward-incompatible changes:
+
+{% details "Theming & Typography" %}
+
+In this release, we’ve made foundational updates to our theming system, which
+include **backwards incompatible changes**:
+
+- **Polymer Components Removed**: Legacy Polymer-based components have been
+  fully removed. As a result, all related `paper-*` CSS variables have also
+  been removed.
+  - Some variables have been **migrated to new theme tokens**.
+  - Others were outdated and have been **removed entirely**.
+
+- **New Typography Variables**: We’ve introduced a new set of
+  **typography CSS variables** to lay the groundwork for a more consistent
+  and modern UI.
+  - These are part of an ongoing refactor and are **not yet in use everywhere**.
+    More adoption will follow in future releases.
+
+If you’re maintaining custom cards or themes, **please update any usage of the
+following variables** accordingly.
+

+
+**✅ New tokens**

+{% details "17TRACK" %}
+
+The previously deprecated state attributes for the 17TRACK entities
+have been removed.
+
+If you relied on these attributes your automations or scripts, you will need to
+update them to use the dedicated sensors instead.

+{% enddetails %}
+
+{% details "AVM FRITZ!SmartHome" %}
+
+The AVM Fritz!Smarthome has a concept of devices and units. A device can have
+multiple units with different features. We now merge all units of a device into
+one entry representing the physical device.
+
+As this might remove existing devices and create new ones, you should check your
+automations and scripts, if they need to be adjusted to the new device registry
+entries.

+
+{% details "Generic Thermostat" %}
+
+The switch targeted by the Generic Thermostat is now only turned on when the
+current temperature falls outside the target temperature range
+(target_temp +- tolerances).
+
+Previously, it would also turn on when the temperature was equal to the limit
+of the target range.

+
+{% details "HomeKit Bridge" %}
+
+The name configured in Home Assistant now takes precedence for the following
+HomeKit child accessories:
+
+- Fan presets (switches)
+- Media player sources (switches)
+- Power strips (Input Select, etc) (outlets)
+- Triggers (stateless programmable switches)
+
+This fixes an issue where the name is missing in HomeKit for these child
+accessories. The downside is that the name provided by Home Assistant
+has to be changed in Home Assistant (where applicable).

+
+{% details "Network UPS Tools (NUT)" %}
+
+The status sensor has changed, providing the state from the UPS Display.
+
+Previously, multiple states would be concatenated using a space, which made
+them harder to read and process. As of this release, multiple statuses are
+separated using a comma instead.

+
+The scan interval option has been removed from NUT. Scans default to once
+every 60 seconds. If needed, an integration-independent and
+[common method](/common-tasks/general/#defining-a-custom-polling-interval)
+can be used to set a custom polling interval.

+
+{% details "Overkiz" %}
+
+Previously, for Atlantic Electrical Towel Dryer devices, the ‘auto’ HVAC mode
+in Home Assistant was mapped to the ‘prog’ mode in Overkiz.
+
+Now, the ‘auto’ mode in Home Assistant will correspond directly to the
+‘auto’ mode in Overkiz, while the ‘prog’ mode can be selected using presets.

+
+Persistent notifications are no longer created when devices are discovered.
+
+Automations which trigger on the persistent notification
+`config_entry_discovery` should be updated to instead trigger on the
+event `config_entry_discovered`.
