Button Form cannot change action description or add general description

Another post with a healthy (and hopefully effective) dose of sarcasm about the Button Form.

By default, an automation action being run in a button cannot be configured to show other text.

This is very user unfriendly and often confusing, for two reasons:

  • It not only confuses around trying to make sense of technical terms for whomever just wants the end result, not need to known what chain the nerds have created.
  • It also leaves out what to expect from the button being pressed with regard to (non interactive) actions that are part of the same automation.
