Beside the improved Wink support which was contributed by [@w1ll1am23], ships this release a wide variety of new components and platforms. The `input_slider` components has received a makeover by [@BioSehnsucht] and is now [`input_number`][input_number docs]. [@tinloaf] added a feature that allows you to enter dates: [`input_datetime`][input_datetime docs]. Both will help you to improve your automation rules.

## {% linkable_title DuckDNS %}
Using Home Assistant with [DuckDNS](http://www.duckdns.org) for Dynamic DNS (DDNS or DynDNS) is an [old story](https://home-assistant.io/blog/2015/12/13/setup-encryption-using-lets-encrypt/). DuckDNS is also integrated in [Hass.io](https://home-assistant.io/addons/duckdns/). 0.55 ships a component for no Hass.io users to get a similar feature.

## {% linkable_title Recorder %}
The purging of data was [improved][recorder docs]. With `purge_interval` you can schedule regular purges of older events and states. In combination you can specify with `purge_keep_days` the amount of days you want to keep. The new service `recorder.purge` allow to handle this task when needed.

## {% linkable_title Owntracks %}
[Owntracks](http://owntracks.org/) is an easy way to track your devices. For some times we have the device tracker which depends on [MQTT][device_tracker.owntracks docs] but thanks to a new feature in Owntracks we can now offer support for HTTP. The [new platform][device_tracker.owntracks_http docs] doesn't require a MQTT broker but sends messages directly as HTTP requests to Home Assistant.
