Hello,
First of, AWESOME tool! Huge thanks!
My question or improvement request (if possible) would be to be able to rename the entities to a more customized name so it would be easier to identify them in Home Assistant.
Thanks

you can do this in known-devices.yaml

findmy_637C81FD5AF*******:
name: "Airtag Vendov bag"
mac: FINDMY_637C81FD-5AF0-4A1B-89B1-B4D6**********
icon:

track: true

Thanks @Vendo232 yes you are right.
And i should have described my wish a bit better.
I am using a "input_select" where i have added the device_trackers i want to view.
However this is based on entiry name so "device_tracker.findmy_..." and that makes it a bit hard to remember what ID corresponds to what airtag.
I took another route of copying the data to a new entity with a more user friendly name so i can select them in my list.
Thanks
