Boo! 👻
We just celebrated our birthday 🥳, which means it is time for spooky season; get ready for Halloween! And, hello to the October release of Home Assistant 2025.10! 🎃
This release iterates on some of the features we introduced in the last couple of releases, but also introduces some brand-new ones!
The highlight of this release is definitely the iterations of the automation editor, which gained a sidebar last release, and now has gained undo/redo functionality, a resizable sidebar, improved copy/paste, and more! Thanks for all the feedback you provided on the previous release; it made a massive difference in this release.
Using multiple wake words for voice assistants is now possible, which opens up a lot of possibilities, especially for dual-language households (like mine 😉). Dashboards get more intelligent by suggesting entities based on your usage patterns, and the AI Task can now generate images, which I’m curious to see what the community will do with it!
Enjoy the release!

A huge thank you to all the contributors who made this release possible! And a special shout-out to @JLo, @laupalombi, and @piitaya who helped write the release notes this release. Also, @googanhiem, @SeraphicRav, @tronikos, and @richardpolzer for putting effort into tweaking its contents. Thanks to them, these release notes are in great shape. ❤️
In the last release, we introduced a new layout for the automation editor, and your feedback has been invaluable in helping us refine it!
This release fixes a few of the most common issues we managed to gather from all of you. Thanks for all the feedback! ❤️
Working on an action that is too complex for a small sidebar? Maybe one with a few YAML fields? You can now resize the sidebar to adapt the layout to your current task!
We previously introduced keyboard shortcuts to copy and cut.
Pasting was more complex to bring to life because you can paste a block (trigger, condition, action) in many different locations in your automation. In this release, we introduce a really simple pattern. If you previously copied a block, you can paste it below any block simply by selecting it and pressing CTRL+V.
Another very simple, but very welcome, quality-of-life improvement to the automation editor!
We initially relocated the overflow menu (the menu that appears when you click the ⋮) with all the options related to a block on the sidebar, thinking this would make the flow cleaner.
Due to popular demand and helpful feedback that some actions were more difficult to reach (such as testing a condition or running an action), we decided to bring it back to the main section of the editor as well.
We’ve all been there: you’re building a complex automation, make a mistake, and want to revert it, only to find out that it’s really not simple. Up until now, the only way to revert some unsaved changes made to an automation was to close it and start over again… A very painful workflow.
This release introduces an Undo functionality (and its associated Redo). You can now undo up to 75 steps back in your automation editing history (and redo them if you want). Standard keyboard shortcuts (CTRL+Z and CTRL+Y) are also available! An amazing contribution from @jpbede, thanks!
Finally, we noticed some unwanted complexity in our “repeat” building block, which allows you to repeat one or multiple actions for as long as you need to.
This complexity stemmed from the fact that we were trying to cover four main use cases in a single block.
We decided to split this building block into four smaller ones, with simpler descriptions explaining each use case. Nice!
Here’s how they were separated:
Note
For our advanced users: This evolution is only cosmetic. The YAML format of the repeat block does not change; this means your existing automations will not be affected by this change.
Tip
One of Home Assistant’s greatest strengths is our community. We’re building this automation editor together, and your input will shape where it goes next. There are two ways to get involved:
In 2025.8, we introduced a way to generate data using the LLM of your choice, paving the way to more AI-driven automations, dashboards, and other smart home interactions.
In this release, we introduce a way to generate images!
Now every time someone rings your doorbell, you can receive a notification with a cartoon version of the doorbell snapshot. @JLo has made this example a reality, and here’s his demo with the associated automation!

Image generation is already working great, and we cannot wait to see what you will build with this!
In the last release, we introduced the Home dashboard, offering a simpler way to control and monitor your smart home if you don’t have the time, energy, or need to customize your own dashboard in detail.
Now we’ve added a new concept: sections of suggested entities. This follows a basic algorithm that suggests entities you have interacted with the most in the past. It then shows these entities based on the hour of the day, with only relevant controls being suggested.
If you’re creating a manual dashboard with sections, you can integrate these prediction controls directly into it. The setup follows a section-based approach:
strategy:
type: common-controls
title: Common controls
Tip
One of Home Assistant’s greatest strengths is our community. We’re building this dashboard together, and your input will shape where it goes next. There are two ways to get involved:
For a very long time, ESPHome-based voice assistants (even the tiny Atom Echo) secretly supported multiple wake words under the hood. With this release, we’re finally opening up this feature to you!
You can now define two wake words and two assistants for every voice assistant in your home!
This makes it straightforward to support dual-language households by assigning different wake words to different languages. For example, “Okay Nabu” could be used for French, while “Hey Jarvis” is used for English.
Multiple wake words and assistants can be used for other purposes as well. Want to keep your local and cloud-based voice assistants separate? Easy! “Okay Nabu” could be used for a cloud-based assistant while “Hey Jarvis” is used for a local one.
We’d love to hear feedback on how you plan to use multiple wake words in your home!
After a voice command, Assist responds with a short confirmation like “Turned on the lights” or “Brightness set”. This lets you know that it understood your command and took the appropriate actions. However, if you’re in the same room as the voice assistant, this confirmation can feel redundant since you can see or hear that the appropriate actions were taken.
Starting with this release, Assist will detect if your voice command’s actions all took place within the same area as the satellite device. If so, a short confirmation “beep” will be played instead of the full verbal response. Besides being less verbose, this also serves as a quick reminder that your voice command only affected the current area.
Note
This feature does not work for AI-enabled Assistants, as they can generate a wide variety of responses that can’t be replaced with a simple beep.
Thanks to our community for keeping pace with the new integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] and improvements to existing ones! You’re all awesome 🥰
We welcome the following new integrations in this release:
It is not just new integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] that have been added; existing integrations are also being constantly improved. Here are some of the noteworthy changes to existing integrations:
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 integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] that have improved their quality scale:
3 integrations reached platinum 🏆
2 integrations reached silver 🥈
3 integrations reached bronze 🥉
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.
A big thank you to all the contributors involved! 👏
While most integrationsIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more. [Learn more] 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 integrations are now available via the Home Assistant UI:
There are many more improvements in this release; here are some of the other noteworthy changes:
webhook_id. Thanks, @RoboMagus!MCF (1000 Cubic Feet) as an alternate unit of measure for volume, thanks to @ekobres, @xtimmy86x added m/min for speed sensors, and @pioto added inH₂O pressure unit support. Nice!This one, we have @jpbede and @matthiasdebaat to thank for! The ‘more information’ dialogs for media players have a revamped design, offering a cleaner and more intuitive interface.
When you have multiple charts in the history panel, zooming in on one chart will now automatically zoom in on all other charts as well. This makes it easier to compare data across different entities. Well done, @birrejan!
@TCWORLD has contributed a toolbar for the YAML and template code editors in our UI. This solves an issue where the previous floating button would float over the content of the editor and obscure it from view.
The new toolbar also includes undo and redo buttons, bringing the same convenient undo and redo functionality we introduced for the automation editor to these code editors as well. Plus, there’s a nice little copy button to quickly copy your code! Nice!
We will also release patch releases for Home Assistant 2025.10 in October. These patch releases only contain bug fixes. Our goal is to release a patch release once a week, aiming for Friday.

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:
Configuration and diagnostic entities with a label assigned to them will now be targeted/affected by service actions targeting that label. Previously, those entity categories were ignored on service action calls targeting labels.
If you have an automation or script with an action targeting a label, make sure that only entities that should be affected have that label assigned, even if they are config or diagnostic entities.
(@abmantis - #149309) (labels docs)
HERE deprecated the previous free tier. The new Base Plan has 5000 free requests per month. The automatic update interval of the HERE Travel Time integration changed from 5 minutes to 30 minutes, so one route can be supported without costs.
The Home Connect Alarm clock entity has been removed from the time platform, please use the number entity instead.
Removed previously deprecated extra attributes, please review your automations.

(@chemelli74 - #140386) (shelly docs)
The effect of the property “invert position” is extended from the position itself to the status (open or closed). With this adjustment, it is no longer necessary to use cover templates to invert the position to correct the status. If you have covers with inverted position and are using the state in automations, you must adjust the automations accordingly.
The windFree preset mode for the air conditioner has been renamed to wind_free to allow translation to happen. Please adapt automations accordingly.
(@joostlek - #152833) (smartthings docs)
Switch Tibber electricity pricing to 15-minute intervals.
tibber.get_prices action now returns 15-minute data instead of hourly.price_level attribute is removed and no longer supported.intraday_price_ranking attribute is now scaled to (0,1) to better support 15-minute prices.We removed official support for Zabbix 5.0 from the integration. While this does not directly break connections to Zabbix 5.0, future updates will not check for compatibility with this version. Note that Zabbix 5 LTS left its support window in May of 2025.
(@nolsto - #149450) (zabbix docs)
ZhongHong’s climate entities set_fan_mode action behavior has changed.
The fan mode values are now converted to lowercase instead of uppercase to ensure compliance with the standard convention.
If you have automations relying on uppercase fan mode values, you will need to update them to use lowercase values instead.

Subtitle downloads from OpenSubtitles may fail depending on time of day. This is due to our daily download quota being exceeded. Current amount of donations is barely enough to pay for the existing quota. So it is unlikely that quota can be increased and situation will get worse over time.
If you create an OpenSubtitles account and configure it in MPC-HC settings then you may be able to bypass the quota.

You can help improve and complete translations. See this topic for more info. There are several languages where recently added options have not yet been translated.
A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about:

VIENNA, Austria – October 01, 2025 – Leading open-source server solutions provider Proxmox Server Solutions GmbH (henceforth “Proxmox”), celebrating its 20th year of innovation, today announced the release of Proxmox Mail Gateway 9.0. Main highlight of the updated email security solution is its modernized core now built upon Debian 13 “Trixie”, ensuring a robust foundation for the open-source platform.
Available in the market since 2005, the anti-spam and antivirus filtering solution Proxmox Mail Gateway functions as a full-featured mail proxy, deployed between the firewall and the internal mail server. It protects organizations against threats such as spam, viruses, Trojans, and phishing emails.
Debian 13 “Trixie” at the core
This core update brings the latest Debian 13 “Trixie” release as foundation for Proxmox Mail Gateway including newer packages, improved hardware support, and enhanced security. Proxmox Mail Gateway 9.0 is using a newer Linux kernel 6.14 as stable default, enhancing hardware compatibility and performance. Also, updates to the latest versions of leading open-source technologies for email security like ClamAV 1.4.3 and SpamAssassin 4.0.2 are included. For existing users of version 8.2 , an extensively tested and detailed upgrade path is available to enable a smooth upgrade.
Redesigned quarantine interface for mobile
Users can now manage quarantined messages with a completely rebuilt interface optimized for mobile devices. Developed with the Rust-based Yew framework, the new quarantine UI replaces the previous implementation and provides a faster, cleaner, and more user-friendly experience on smartphones and tablets.
More flexible authentication and SSO
The single sign-on (SSO) and authentication realm features, first introduced in version 8.2, have been significantly improved and expanded. OpenID Connect realms are now fully configurable via the graphical user interface, including claim mappings and default role assignment for auto-provisioned users. This allows seamless integration with popular identity and access management solutions such as Keycloak, Zitadel, or LemonLDAP::NG.
Security enhancements and refined filtering
This version incorporates multiple hardening measures. The Content-Type filtering engine has been adjusted to support the updated MIME type definitions for Microsoft executables, ensuring these high-risk files continue to be reliably blocked.
Proxmox Mail Gateway 9.0 is available now for download. The ISO image contains the complete feature-set and can be quickly installed on bare-metal using the installation wizard. Upgrades from version 8.2 to 9.0 are supported and a detailed migration guide is available. It is also possible to install the solution on top of Debian or as a container appliance inside Proxmox VE.
