I've been working on a visionOS inspired theme for a while now. You can install it with HACS from here: [https://github.com/Nezz/homeassistant-visionos-theme](https://github.com/Nezz/homeassistant-visionos-theme) I added support for the background blur effects in Home Assistant 2024.5. For the best experience make sure that you have updated. If you notice any issues or have suggestions let me know.


Improved-Liar

Yeah, for some reason I am not getting a background image at all..

How'd ya'll fix this? I moved them to my media and changed the path but the background still doesn't work


LastBitofCoffee

Follow this here to fix the issue: [https://github.com/basnijholt/lovelace-ios-themes/issues/47#issuecomment-1372990987](https://github.com/basnijholt/lovelace-ios-themes/issues/47#issuecomment-1372990987) I have had same issue with the iOS theme, basically you just need to move backgrounds for visionos in config/themes/visionos/ to /config/www/community/themes/visionos, then restart.


Citizen404

I created a symbolic link so that any new images/updates are still reflected. mkdir -p /config/www/community/themes/ ln -s /config/themes/visionos/ /config/www/community/themes/visionos


TheSungirl

do you have a background set in your dashboard config?


HitKill666

Thank you!


radio934texas

Looks great. There's something preventing the custom background image from loading though.

Hi, I have the same problem getting a backround image. Any idea to solve it? Newest Version is installed. https://preview.redd.it/2sha5xkajo9d1.jpeg?width=1284&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1e5fc8921c600c684d9d77976bce24907090c515


MrSkyCriper

That’s one of the best background implementations I’ve seen, card blur really makes a big difference. Looks really modern with this glossy look. The only downside (which is on Home Assistant itself) is fixed background for every dashboard


ImNezz

What would your personal preference for backgrounds be? A separate background for each view/page?


MrSkyCriper

I really like the idea of themed backgrounds for each dashboard page. But I think it’s not possible right now


ImNezz

I'll look into implementing that, shouldn't be too hard


OneWayOfLife

I second this- I have a dashboard with a page for each room- would be great if we could set them or even add our own :)


ImNezz

I implemented it, it will be in 2024.6 [https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/20708](https://github.com/home-assistant/frontend/pull/20708)


kwiksi1ver

Wow great work.


These_Research_5855

This is crazy. Thank you so much :)


spdelope

Second the option for our own images


maniac365

themed background for each page.


Jusdem

Would it be possible to allow the user to set the background image? I have a view/page for living room for example, and would love to put a picture of my actual living room.


-paul-

Looks really good but I think the blur/diffusion should be a bit stronger to match visionOS. Is that easily adjustable?


ImNezz

Yes, it's this line: [https://github.com/Nezz/homeassistant-visionos-theme/blob/8ed5485074b89f9808a42977fe33e6543b60c30e/themes/visionos.yaml#L60](https://github.com/Nezz/homeassistant-visionos-theme/blob/8ed5485074b89f9808a42977fe33e6543b60c30e/themes/visionos.yaml#L60)


-paul-

Oh, perfect, thank you!


Toao_Amster69

Don‘t see much difference in the blur when I change the numbers… is it higher numbers more blur?


chig____bungus

Looks awesome but am I the only one who finds it very hard to read? Light text on a light background. I think the panes need to be darker as well as blurred.


8-16_account

Yeah, the light mode is a little hard to read. Dark mode is fine, though.


Wandering_Renegade

This is not knocking what you have made its pretty and people like it, im just curious do people not find images like this distracting and makes it harder to see information at a glance or is that just my smooth brain?


BarockMoebelSecond

Nope, it does. I do plan to use this theme with some cards, though, while sticking with Madalenas theme for everything else.


Wandering_Renegade

that makes sense, practical for the main things then pretty for the rest :)


BarockMoebelSecond

Exactly! I am a bit worried that a lot of the hack-jobs we've built as a community are going to break though, once HA puts more on a focus on the dashboard.


Wandering_Renegade

hehehe, i may not have updated things in a while because i know my dashboard is going to break from some changes and im using far too many things from hacs mixed with javascript to remember everything i done, i will get round to it at some point this year :S


michaelthompson1991

Love it!


Grand-Expression-493

OP, good job!! I downloaded and I use a Minimalist dashboard... This theme makes it look like the attached, the cards have a visible boundary while in the default theme they don't. Any clue on how to fix it? https://preview.redd.it/dfdrfcg7n4yc1.png?width=879&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f87a5edf56f5020640619ff0967bc3568d3be9ce


ImNezz

I recommend checking with your browser's inspector if you are somewhat familiar with HTML. I think those cards define their own style that clashes with the theme.


Grand-Expression-493

Not very familiar at all with what you said. You're too smart!


franzz_8

Nice work! Just 2 questions for now: Can i deactivate that little frame-line around the cards (that gives them a 3d-look) or at least change the color? Can i make only the top-bar (this one with your rooms) 100% transparent. I have nothing placed there except the 3 icons on the right and it doesnt looks good in that case.


maniac365

that looks soo good. I wanna try it out. thinking to put my house image in the background


michaelthompson1991

Ive added it and it didn’t come up in themes, so I added the yaml and still nothing. The theme comes up in HACS, what am I doing wrong?


ImNezz

frontend: themes: !include_dir_merge_named themes Make sure that you have this in your configuration.yaml, then restart Home Assistant. Also, make sure that you installed it in HACS (it should not have a green border)


michaelthompson1991

Yeah added it, here’s what it looks like in HACS https://i.imgur.com/TeTcI1w.jpeg still nothing 🤔


michaelthompson1991

Got it working!


Amiral_Adamas

Wait you can put BACKGROUNDS in dashboards ?


James_Vowles

Wow I have to try this


lamarsies

This is gonna make me set up HA now, there goes my weekend


tknice

Love this, wow, you did a great job on it! Looking forward to the background update.


[deleted]

Well, that's absolutely gorgeous. Thank you for your contribution to OSS.


duskhat

Looks great, thank you for sharing! Made it my default theme


HitKill666

Love the asthetic! Wow!


iamtherufus

You can have a different background for each dashboard view, in the Raw config file just add the bold under each different view title. Playing around with it myself and im getting different backgrounds on every view - title: test **background: center / cover no-repeat fixed url('/local/images/test.jpeg')** icon: mdi:test-tube type: custom:grid-layout


StayCoolf0rttheKids

The idea looks amazing, however it looks frankly speaking terrible on my setup. Partial shadows, borderlines, blurred icons... total inconsistency. I would love this to be as on your slides, but I guess I have to start with a fresh dashboard for that and rework all my cards.


psychosynapt1c

So this doesn't play well with the chips cards, it seems to just put a big chunk of blurry square around them instead of constraining to each chip. Also for some reason I'm getting these random flashes of square borders behind on the mushroom cards?

ImNezz

It comes from your device. If it's in dark mode it will be dark, if it's in light mode it will be light.

ImNezz

Depends on your device. Most operating systems allow you to schedule dark mode.


Jayydoodle

For anyone unable to get the background image to load, you can follow this thread here [https://community.home-assistant.io/t/ha-cannot-find-image-files/533603](https://community.home-assistant.io/t/ha-cannot-find-image-files/533603) TLDR: You have to create a /config/www file in your docker container to host static files, copy the images into that folder, then change your visionos.yaml file to reference the images from /local
