Feature Request: Multiple states

[Willian-Zhang]

Describe the idea or improvement turns this (3 modes: manual, auto, sleep)

into something more like this

or this

Describe the solution you'd like Merge states with same key into multiple state UI multiple choice or a big switch that supports multiple state (I'm not sure what those kind of UI would be, but I have saw them on different native HomeKit devices)

Additional context

Hi,

unfortunately this is not possible that easy. I have already investigated that possibilities.

For the first screenshoot I would need to make the accessory a TV which does not really makes sense that for example a fan will be displayed as a TV. For the second screenshot it is not possible to rename the buttons which would also be confusing as you do not know which mode is actually selected.

As far as I know there is currently no better way to display multiple states as simply with multiple switches...

[Willian-Zhang]

how about an option to make them like this:

There is also no way to change the labels or even the amount of displayed options! As you see unfortunately the home app is currently quite the limiting factor for a much better UX😅 We can only hope that Apple will improve that in future...

@merdok Cześć. Jak mogę się z Tobą skontaktować? Robię taki fajny projekt z Shelly API cloud i do niego potrzebuje przerobić plugin który już jest na gicie. www.teslagarage.app. Chce to po prostu dodać do HK przez HB.
