# Adding devices to areas
You can add devices to an area by going to `Settings` found at the bottom of the sidebar.
1. Click `Devices and integration`
2. Select the integration of your device
3. Click the device you wish to add
4. Click the `pencil icon` found in the top right corner
5. Enter an area in the area field.
You can also set an entity of that device to a different area by going to the advanced settings of that entity.
If you created an entity in your `configuration.yaml` you may need to enter a `unique_id` first before you set an area
to it.
See [docs](https://www.home-assistant.io/faq/unique_id/)
# Hidding specific entities and devices
When creating this dashboard for the first time, you probably have many entities that you don't want to see.
You can hide these entities by following the steps below:
1. Click and hold the entity
2. Click the `cog icon` in the top right corner of the popup.
3. Set `Visible` to `off`.
The view should update when the page is refreshed.
If you don't want to hide the entity from all dashboards, you can use [Card Options](#card-options) to hide specific
entities and devices.
