A code check found that a setting changed on a screen could jump back. ESP Screen Manager kept its own copy and sent it with every full update: after a restart of the app or Home Assistant, every hour and after every save. A change it missed while it or Home Assistant restarted came back to the old value, a reported setting was lost when save() refused a layout with a removed entity, and every step of a held - or + on the screen resent the whole screen. Firmware 0.2.49 offers every setting as an entity over the existing preference records (no migration): Night mode, Night starts/ends, 24-hour clock, Back to page 1 and after how long, Back to page 1 on standby, Swipe between pages and, on the Guition, Rotation, next to the four numbers and Auto standby. The settings page and every entity write through settings_screen::set(), which clamps like the page and stores, applies and reports only a real change. screen_message answers a caller that asks with its status and layout revision (api.respond). The settings tile opens without Home Assistant. The app reads and changes the settings of such a screen through its entities and leaves them out of the layout message. Older firmware keeps them with the layout; a setting it reports is stored without the tile check and not sent back. Pings to screens that can answer learn at once whether a tile is missing and resend after 30 s instead of 120 s. Layout sensors come back after a Home Assistant restart, and weather tiles only ask for the forecasts the entity supports. The editor's settings form is now three cards with the rows of the screen's own page; a change applies at once, and an offline screen shows its values as unknown. Checked with 245 Python and 14 C++ tests, generate_packages --check, ESP32 builds of both profiles, host-build API tests on both boards, and a live run against Home Assistant 2026.9.1 with a temporary host device. Firmware 0.2.49. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
