Animated dishwasher icon for Home Assistant

Follows the cycle: washing spins the spray arm and soft water jets hit the dishes, drying fogs the window with rising steam, and done shows a green check while a clean shine sweeps the glass.

4 states: off, washing, drying and done. Part of the kitchen icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the dishwasher icon

The card picks the state from your entity, so the icon always shows what the dishwasher is doing.

  • OffResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.Also understood: idle, standby, ready, none, initial, power_off
  • WashingAlso understood: wash, main_wash, prewash, pre_wash, rinse, rinsing
  • DryingAlso understood: dry, final_dry
  • DoneAlso understood: finish, finished, end, ended, complete, completed

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Picked automatically when the entity or device name contains "dishwasher", "geschirrsp ü", "ue ler", "sp ü", "ue lmaschine", on switch, input_boolean, binary_sensor or sensor entities.
  • Status sensors (sensor) that report the words listed under each state below are understood without any setup.
  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows washing, off shows off. Entity states named like a state below (for example done) are used directly.
  • Works with any entity whose state you map: pick this icon in the card and map your entity's own state words to these states with the card's states: option.

  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
