Home Assistant API Interface

This app provides two features:

• Sending health, compass, accelerator, and battery information to Home Assistant
• Displaying Home Assistant templates

This is done through rest api calls to your Home Assistant server. This means the app requires using the Android Integration and for your server to be accessible from your phone.

A restart may be required after loading the app to start the background sensor process.

Configuration

Configuration is done through modifying the settings json.
