To reduce the number of entities shown, you can hide these entities by following the steps below:
|
|
|
|
1. Click and hold the entity.
|
|
2. Click :material-cog: in the top right corner of the popup.
|
|
3. Set `Visible` to `off`.
|
|
|

If you don't want to hide the entity from all dashboards, you can use [Card Options](options/card-options.md)

|
to hide specific entities and devices.
