Hi!

I'm back with a new update for ha-wa-bridge - Check the first reddit post about this one

I released the v1.4.0 with polls support

If you are using the Home Assistant Add-on, you can configure the following options in the add-on configuration tab:

• detect_own_messages: Set to true to allow the bridge to detect and broadcast messages sent by your own authenticated WhatsApp account (e.g., messages sent from WhatsApp Web, your phone, or voice assistants like Ray-Ban Meta glasses). Note: This feature only works for messages sent in WhatsApp groups. Default is false.

Docker Compose Configuration

If you are using Docker Compose, you can enable this feature using an environment variable (Note: This feature only works for messages sent in WhatsApp groups):

    environment:
      - DETECT_OWN_MESSAGES=true

Thank you!
