Get Animara

Animated toaster icon for Home Assistant

Toasting lowers the lever, makes the slots glow orange with an amber dial ring and soft heat rising; done pops the toast up and turns the ring green.

3 states: off, toasting and done. Part of the kitchen icons in the Animara Full Pack.

States of the toaster icon

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

  • OffResting state, shown when the device is off or idle.
  • Toasting
  • Done

Which Home Assistant entities fit

  • Picked automatically when the entity or device name contains "toaster", on switch, input_boolean, binary_sensor or sensor entities.
  • Any entity that is simply on or off, such as a switch or input_boolean: on shows toasting, 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.

How to use it in Home Assistant

  1. Install the Animara card: one link install, HACS as a custom repository, or copy animara-card.js to /config/www.
  2. Edit your dashboard, choose Add card, then Animara.
  3. Pick your entity. Choose Toaster in the Icon list if it is not detected automatically.
  4. Paste your Full Pack license key into the License key field once per dashboard.

Prefer YAML? This is all it takes:

type: custom:animara-card
entity: switch.toaster
icon: toaster

Mapping words yourself looks like this:

states:
