Select Entities
---------------

ESPHome devices can now create ``select`` entities in Home Assistant. This allows you to
not have to create ``input_select`` from HA and then import the current option into ESPHome.
The chosen option can be updated from both sides and will be reflected accordinlgy.


Light Color Modes
-----------------

This is an internal change, but ESPHome has been updated to properly support Home Assistant's
color modes for lights. For the most part it mainly fixes issues that have come up with the
color mode on Home Assistant not doing what people expected in ESPHome.


Anova Souve
-----------

There is a change with the Anova BLE Souve climate platform that has a new **required**
config option: ``unit_of_measurement``.


Home Assistant Add-on
---------------------

For a while there has been an option in the Add-on to allow specifying the ``esphome_version``
which would allow the addon to download a specific version to use. This has been removed
in this release as it causes more issues than it solves. It may be added back to the ``development`` addon
**only** in the future if there is demand, but the stable add-ons should stay stable. If you
need to downgrade the esphome version because a new version does not work the way you expect, then you
should be using the snapshot/backup feature built into Home Assistant Supervisor to rollback.
