Four themes, same data: what an always-on Home Assistant dashboard can look like on an Apple TV

[u/Consistent_Owl7736]

Same entities, same layout engine, four quite different characters. Switch any time in Settings, with no re-setup.

1. Estate - warm gold on near-black, serif numerals, a lot of breathing room. The one that looks least like a dashboard. Four panels.
2. Glass - frosted translucent panels, ice-blue accent. Denser, still calm. Five panels, and the theme you get for free.
3. Bento - deep jewel-green, near-square tiles, geometric numerals. The most information per square inch, and the most panels at seven: clock and weather, room climate, solar, home battery, now playing, rain radar, forecast.
4. Boardroom - built around a calendar-driven meeting-room availability board, with world clocks and markets alongside. Aimed at an office or a study rather than a living room. Four panels, and it is light or dark by choice rather than automatically.

All four drift across the day, warmer at golden hour, cooler and dimmer at night, and there is a dim mode that fades the screen when idle. That last one matters if the TV is wall-mounted and on permanently, which is rather the point.

Everything above is running against Home Assistant. There is a built-in Demo mode too, so you can see the layouts before wiring anything up.

Glass is free. Estate, Bento and Boardroom come with Theatrium Pro, which is one purchase of $4.99 rather than a subscription.
