…/ManageFavoritesVehicleScreen.kt Logging raw entityId can leak user-specific information (entity IDs often include user-defined names). Prefer removing these logs or wrapping the value with sensitive(...) as used elsewhere in the app. Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>
aa_manage_favorites_parked_only is added but not referenced anywhere in the PR. If it’s not needed, remove it to avoid unused resource warnings; if it is needed, wire it into the UI where the parked-only restriction is enforced. Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>
…/DomainListScreen.kt Kotlin style in this codebase generally uses trailing commas for multiline argument lists; add a trailing comma after prefsRepository to match surrounding calls and avoid ktlint churn. Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

…/ManageFavoritesVehicleScreen.kt
Sorting computes favorite membership with favoritesList.any { ... } for every entity, which is O(entities × favorites). Consider building a Set (or HashSet) of favorite entityIds for the current server once per update and using contains in both the sort and row-building logic.

…/ManageFavoritesVehicleScreen.kt itemsPerPage always reserves space for both paging rows by doing listLimit - 2, even when only one (or neither) paging row is shown. This reduces the number of entities shown per page unnecessarily and can make paging feel off. Consider calculating the reserved rows based on hasPreviousPage/hasNextPage for the current page.

Summary
I have a Renault Scenic with Android Automotive, but Debug Mode is secured. Therefore, I can't install the minimal version of Home Assistant.
I created a 'favorites' mode for the full release. Users can add favorites on the home screen only when the car is parked (not while driving).
