# CHANGELOG - Whatsapp Bridge Integration

## Release 0.2.1 - 2026-06-15
- **Fix:** Resolved device assignment duplication. Instead of a rigid global gateway card duplicating across all account tabs, a distinct and separate Home Assistant device is now generated for each configured account (*Larissa, Rene, Work*).
- **Fix:** Globalized the live status sensor and the broadcast entity. They are now instantiated exactly once for the entire integration (rather than incorrectly duplicating per account) and exist as free entities without device assignment to maintain a clean UI layout.
- **Optimization:** Code refactoring within `sensor.py` to prevent entity duplication when utilizing multiple profiles.

## Release 0.2.0 - 2026-06-15
- **New:** Setup of a main device (WhatsApp Bridge Gateway) in the Home Assistant device registry.
- **New:** Integrated global service `whatsapp_bridge.send_broadcast`, which operates independently of individual profile entities and can send messages to any number or group ID.
- **New:** Added status sensor (`sensor.whatsapp_bridge_status`). This queries the add-on's new API and provides the current connection status (`CONNECTED`, `WAITING_FOR_SCAN`, `INITIALIZING`, `OFFLINE`) directly within Home Assistant.
- **Improved:** The sensor is assigned to the new main device, which significantly simplifies automations (e.g., alert on connection loss).

## Release 0.1.7
- Previous stable version
