Option to add prefix to devices when listed in HK #480

Closed brianleesmith closed 2 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Some devices have similar names. When using naming in the individual apps, there is often an option to select the name from s list. For example, Kitchen is an option in Nest and Ecobee. So, a sensor in the kitchen and a smoke detector in the kitchen both have the same name in HK.

Describe the solution you'd like Allow option to add a prefix. This could be a set one or a blank field in the plugin. A device might then display in the Nest app as Kitchen, but display in the Home app as Nest- Kitchen.

Describe alternatives you've considered No option other than manually renaming the devices in their respective apps. That is a possible option, but some apps do not offer the same functionality when you deviate from their list of recommended labels.

Additional context Can think of no additional context.
