Optional confirmation dialog before toggling a switch/button tile
it would be great to have an optional “Require confirmation” setting for tiles that trigger an action (switch, button, cover, lock, script).
When enabled, tapping the tile would not trigger the action immediately. Instead, a small popup appears (e.g. “Open/close Garage Peugeot?”) with Confirm and Cancel buttons. Optionally the popup could close automatically after a few seconds.
Use case: Critical or risky actions like garage doors, locks, alarm panels or “all lights off” scripts. On a wall-mounted touchscreen it is easy to trigger them by accident (cleaning the screen, kids, a stray touch).
Suggested implementation:
- Per-tile toggle “Require confirmation” in the tile editor (default: off)
- Optional custom confirmation text
- Works like the confirmation option in Home Assistant’s own dashboard tap actions
The existing popup/alert window from the recently shipped voice assist feature could possibly be reused for this.
