android: Adding to Device Controls no longer works on Android 13
Home Assistant Android version: 2022.6.0-full
Android version: 13 Beta 4.1
Phone model: Google Pixel 6
Home Assistant version: Home Assistant 2022.7.6 Supervisor 2022.07.0 Operating System 8.2
Last working Home Assistant release (if known): Uncertain - possibly related to Android 13 rather than HA.
Description of problem: Adding Home Assitant entities to the Home Control notification / home screen menu no longer works - just hangs on loading when Home Assistant is selected as the source.
Traceback (if applicable, to get the logs you may refer to: https://companion.home-assistant.io/docs/troubleshooting/faqs/#android-crash-logs):
Screenshot of problem:
Additional information:
When Home Assistant is selected as the app to add controls from, it never gets past the “Loading” stage.
Also quite possibly related, updating the Tiles for the quick settings has no effect. Customised Tile 1 with name, icon, entity etc, but still has all 12 listed as “Tile Not Setup”.

Hi, I actually use openHAB but I thought I’d let you know that if you click “See other apps”, turn the screen off, turn it back on and then click the app, it works 90% of the times.
A workaround I discovered while replying to Google: if you remove all controls, for all apps, and reboot, adding new controls will work most of the time.
(However, if you then try to add controls for a second app, you will most likely end up with endless loading again.)
Dude, I’ve had this problem since the release of Android 13. What you said just worked!
Many, many thanks indeed!!!
Good to hear quick settings tiles work!
The device controls issue appears to be limited to Android 13, I’m seeing the same (Pixel 4a on the latest beta, using beta-2500 for HA). If the app wasn’t showing controls before you click on ‘Add controls’, loading them will fail most of the time. Switching to stateless controls doesn’t help. Also happens with for example Google Home. Opened an issue on Google’s issue tracker because no one seems to have reported it yet: https://issuetracker.google.com/issues/240060686
@jpelgrom it’s fixed for me on Android 14 (build UP1A.231005.007)
