One card can control several players. With more than one, a row of buttons at the top switches between them, and a small animated equalizer marks the ones that are playing. The card starts on whatever is playing. It shows the album art, title and artist, with previous, play/pause and next buttons and a volume slider. A player that is off gets a **Turn on** button instead. You can hide players that are off from the switcher.

At two rows high, a progress ring around the appliance sits beside its name, status, program, the time left and when it will be ready, plus the door and its power or energy use. Taller cards stack the ring on top. Without a progress sensor, progress is worked out from the time left. It works with any integration, such as Home Connect, Miele, LG ThinQ, SmartThings, or a smart plug:

**Home Connect** (Bosch, Siemens, Neff, Gaggenau): choose the appliance's *Operation state* sensor as the status, and the card fills in the rest of the same device by itself: program progress, finish time, door state, active program, the pause, resume and stop buttons, the power switch and alerts (for example rinse aid or salt nearly empty, which Home Connect provides as event sensors that are off by default). Fields you already filled in are left alone. The card understands every Home Connect operation state: running, paused, finished, starts later (with the time it will be ready), action needed, error and stopping; *ready* and *inactive* count as off. Program names such as `dishcare_dishwasher_program_eco_50` show as "Eco 50". Depending on the state, round buttons appear to pause, resume or stop the program, or to switch the appliance on. While an alert is active, the card stays visible even when the appliance is off.
#### Litter box
Set **Appliance** to **Litter box** for a self-cleaning litter box. Instead of a progress ring, the card says what the box is doing: *Ready*, *Cleaning…*, *Emptying*, *Levelling*, *Sanitizing* or *Sleeping*. Under that are today's visits, the time in the box today and your cat's weight. **Clean now** starts a cleaning cycle and the switch at the top turns auto clean on or off. The card never hides itself.
**Tuya** (for example the ZEDAR K1200): choose the box's *Status* sensor and the card fills in the rest of the same device: *Excretion times (day)* as the visits, *Excretion duration* as the time in the box, *Cat weight*, the *Manual clean* button and the *Auto clean* switch. Sensors for a full waste bin or a fault become alerts, shown in amber. Not every box offers every sensor, and names can differ; you can always pick the entities by hand. Other brands work too, as long as there is a status sensor.
