Proposed change

Documents the updated command_webview behavior from home-assistant/android#7163. When the app is already open and showing the targeted server, the command now acts on the open page in place instead of relaunching the app: it navigates to the requested path or entity (Home Assistant 2025.6 or later), and a new reload value reloads the page without cached data to release resources like camera streams.

Updates the command_webview table row, adds a BETA paragraph describing the in-place behavior, and adds a reload example.

Type of change

  • Document existing features within Home Assistant Companion App
  • Document new or changing features for which there is an existing pull request elsewhere
  • Spelling or grammatical corrections, or rewording for improved clarity
  • Changes to the backend of this documentation
  • Remove stale or deprecated documentation

Checklist

  • I have read and followed the documentation guidelines.
  • I have verified that my changes render correctly in the documentation.

The reload value acts on the open page on any server version, only
navigating in place needs the navigate command from Home Assistant
2025.6.
