As described in #4607, Home Assistant changed nomenclature from Addons to Apps in HA 2026.2
One consequence of this change is that the predbat config is now stored in /app_config not /addon_config.
In order to maintain backwards compatibility the old pathnames and service calls that refer to addons still work, but at some point these will be removed by HA.
In #4607 the predbat documentation, auto restart mechanism and error monitor automations were changed to reflect 'app' not 'addon' as these were non-breaking changes, but two sets of core Predbat changes were not made in order to not break users running an older version of HA.
This issue is to make those changes, proposed in Feb 27, giving people a year to have upgraded HA.
Two sets of changes need to be made:
- the predbat deployment mechanism paths need to be changed from /addon_configs to /app_configs
- the HA API call that Predbat uses to determine the slug id needs to be changed to refer to app not addon.
