Install and Configure View Assist Companion App - Android App for Home Assistant Voice

A video for setting up View Assist Companion App and Integration. This will be the basis for controlling voice input and video output on Android devices.

This fantastic application and integration could not have come into existence without the hard work and dedication of Mark Parker. Mark has outdone himself once again and has packed in so many features including on device wake word detection which makes voice recognition super fast!

Note that you must have Home Assistant voice pipeline set up to use this application. See installation video link below.
