• Home Assistant 2025.12 released

    Version
    2025.12 of the Home Assistant home-automation system has been released.

    This month, we're unveiling Home Assistant Labs, a brand-new space
    where you can preview features before they go mainstream. And what
    better way to kick it off than with Winter mode? ❄️ Enable it and
    watch snowflakes drift across your dashboard. It's completely
    unnecessary, utterly delightful, and exactly the kind of thing we
    love to build. ❄️

    But that's just the beginning. We've been working on making
    automations more intuitive over the past releases, and this release
    finally delivers purpose-specific triggers and conditions. Instead
    of thinking in (numeric) states, you can now simply say "When a
    light turns on" or "If the climate is heating". It's automation
    building the way our mind works, as it should be.
