Home alarm

The Home alarm app shows an alarm panel from Home Assistant: its state, buttons to arm and disarm, a keypad for the code, and the doors, windows and sensors that belong to it. It can also take over the screen when the alarm goes off or the entry delay starts.

Set it up

Open Settings → Home control → Home alarm and pick the panel under Alarm panel. If Home Assistant has only one alarm panel, it is selected automatically. Enable home control and Allow the device to perform Home Assistant actions in the display’s ESPHome integration options.

Using it

Arm buttons appear while the alarm is disarmed, one for each mode the panel supports: Home, Away, Night, Vacation and Bypass. Disarm appears while it’s armed, arming, in its entry delay or triggered.
If the panel needs a code, enter it on the keypad. The Keypad and Vault looks have the keypad on the screen; the others ask for it when you press a button.
Hold Emergency (or Panic) to trigger the alarm. A tap only shows Hold to trigger. It shows when the panel can be triggered from Home Assistant. If the panel’s Home Assistant device has its own buttons, such as fire or medical, those appear instead.
Zones are the door, window, motion, smoke, water and similar sensors on the panel’s Home Assistant device. While disarmed with zones open, it shows Not ready and which zone is open. Hide zones under Zones shown.

Looks

Look (homealarm_look) picks one of 14 designs: Keypad (the default), Shield, Card, Ring, Dial, Neon, Hardware, Flip board, Terminal, Console, Blueprint, Matrix, Vault and Minimal. The picker shows each one with the panel’s current state.

The examples use rehearsal data, with two open zones. Private zone names are blurred.
