Change the names of the default toggles #579

Can you add a section to change the names of the default toggles? That way we don't have to reorganize them after every reboot.

This is something I plan to do in the future yes, just not sure when I will have the time to tackle that...

Thank you very much. this is a really important feature because it is very tiring to edit the names over and over again every time. I think the best way would be that when we change it in the accessories section, these changes are fixed and synchronized with homekit.

So is there a method that I can do it manually for now?

No, currently there is no method to do it manually. A proper way needs to be provided to save the set name to the settings and restore that after a reboot, but that requires a lot of changes...

so I guess the best way is to wait. I hope you can find a time and add it as soon as possible. thank you very much for your work. Hava a good one
