If multiple servers are connected to the companion app, you can configure whether sensors are sent on a per-server basis.

The sensors provided by the companion app depend on which app you're using, see the lists below. If you don't want the device_tracker entity but still want sensors to update then just disable the entity in the entity registry to stop location updates and keep sensor updates. Along with providing location services, the companion app also adds several additional sensors to Home Assistant.
