Newbie here. I’ve got my Home Assistant dashboard on an Android tablet running Fully Kiosk, and I want the tablet to announce some things for example, “Laundry is done!” when a sensor flips state.

Could someone spell out the basic logic for getting the tablet to talk and share how you’ve accomplished it? I’m not sure if there’s a direct integration path or if I need to combine a media_player, and automations in a certain way. Any real-world examples or pitfalls to avoid would be super helpful.
