post 0.26: New unit system Frontend became blazing fast and extensible. DirecTV support added. 2016-08-09 10:00:00 +0000 August 09, 2016 Paulus Schoutsen balloob true Release-Notes

It's time for 0.26! The biggest change in this release is a new unit system. Instead of picking Celsius or Fahrenheit you'll have to pick imperial or metric now. This influences the units for your temperature, distance, and weight. This will simplify any platform or component that needs to know this information. Big thanks to @Teagan42 for her hard work on this!

  • A new unit system has superseded the temperature unit option in the core configuration. For now it is backwards compatible, but you should update soon:
# Configuration.yaml example
homeassistant:
  # 'metric' for the metric system, 'imperial' for the imperial system
  unit_system: metric
