## Summary BSSID sensor reported MAC addresses without leading zeros (e.g., `18:e8:29:a7:e9:b`), inconsistent with Android companion app and standard MAC address notation. This breaks cross-platform room presence tracking. **Changes:** - Added `String.formattedBSSID` extension that pads hex octets to 2 characters - Applied formatting to BSSID sensor state in `ConnectivitySensor` - Added test coverage for formatting edge cases ```swift // Before: "18:e8:29:a7:e9:b" // After: "18:e8:29:a7:e9:0b" sensor.State = bssid.formattedBSSID ``` ## Screenshots N/A - Sensor value formatting change only ## Link to pull request in Documentation repository Documentation: home-assistant/companion.home-assistant# ## Any other notes **Breaking change:** Users with BSSID-based automations must update to the new zero-padded format. This aligns iOS with Android, standard MAC notation, and network management tools like UniFi. <!-- START COPILOT ORIGINAL PROMPT --> <details> <summary>Original prompt</summary> > > ---- > > *This section details on the original issue you should resolve* > > <issue_title>BSSID mac address format isn't consistant with Android Companion app</issue_title> > <issue_description>**iOS device model, version and app version** > <!-- Please include your device 'Model Name' and 'Software Version' as listed in iOS Settings>General>About.

It would also be a breaking change for modifying what values are sent up, which is less-than-ideal since users get auto-updated in the apps. I'm not sure there's a great path forward for resolving this.</body></comment_new> > </comments> > </details> <!-- START COPILOT CODING AGENT SUFFIX --> - Fixes home-assistant/iOS#1563 <!-- START COPILOT CODING AGENT TIPS --> --- 💡 You can make Copilot smarter by setting up custom instructions, customizing its development environment and configuring Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers.
