### Too many releases!
A new version of this card is [automatically
released](./developing.md?id=release-philosophy) on each change ("Pull
Request"). This means features and fixes are available immediately! However, it
also means there may be visual notifications in Home Assistant frequently
recommending update and some users find this annoying.
The topic of intentionally doing fewer releases has been discussed fairly
extensively
([#1781](https://github.com/dermotduffy/advanced-camera-card/issues/1781),
[#2072](https://github.com/dermotduffy/advanced-camera-card/issues/2072)) but it
always comes down to some users (and this developer!) like it instant / often,
others like it slower / rarer.
As a workaround for those that this bothers, the visual notification (the 'dot')
to remind users to upgrade can be disabled by disabling the matching `update`
entity provided by HACS. The entity is usually called
`update.advanced_camera_card_update`. To disable it:
- Navigate to: `Settings -> Devices & Services -> HACS -> # Entities -> Advanced Camera Card update`
- Click the settings "cog"
- Set "Enabled" to off
### Unknown Frigate instance `frigate`
