OpenMQTTGateway v1.5.0 released

What’s Changed

Introducing the latest update for OpenMQTTGateway! With over 75 changes done in just 40 days, this release is packed with exciting new features and improvements. One of the most noteworthy updates is the automatic creation and support of device trackers for presence detection, including popular devices like NUT, Tile, Mi Band, Amazfit, and RuuviTag.
Plus, the support for direct Over the Air updates from the controller means that you can easily stay up-to-date with future releases.

That’s not all - we also made some significant changes to the SSD1306, allowing you to control it directly from the controller or by MQTT commands and even use it to display BLE sensor data. And, with the new logo acting as a screen saver, you can reduce screen burn-in while still enjoying all the information shown.
Also, the RTL_433 library has been updated to provide more sensitivity and support new devices. To avoid creating unnecessary entities, the auto-discovery control is available from the controller and will now work as a pairing mode. It will be automatically deactivated after 30 minutes after its activation.

Finally, the Theengs plug can now retain its state in case of power outages or restart.
