Several online documents have the instruction to open Settings->Add-ons, but I don't see this option. I asked the CoPilot AI which said it was because I was 'only' an administrator and not the owner. When I check Settings->People, there are 2 users with my name; one has a hyphen in the username column and is owner, the other has my username and is an administrator. On the console, "ha auth list" shows 2 users, me and mqttuser, and both have is_owner set false. Login won't accept a blank username, so how do I get to be owner and access the Add-ons setting? Alternatively, have things changed and all the references to Add-ons are obsolete? As I only started setting up HA 3 weeks ago, I apologize if this is explained elsewhere and I just haven't found it.

"Add-ons" have been renamed "Apps" recently. Guides and AI's will be out of date for a while.

Confusing for new users like me! Can I assume I don't need to worry about the 'user' with my name which is the owner and my actual account which as an admin but not the owner?

It is quite a recent change, It is just something that need some time to disseminate.
You are correct, You should not need to worry about being an "owner" user.
For the future, keep in kind that Home Assistant is in very active development and guides and AI's will get out of date on certain things quicker then you might imagine.

I probably first looked at HA 6 or 7 years ago, but couldn't find support for the Energenie/MiHome adapters I have all round the house. I now have several other makes of 'smart' electronics so when I installed it in February, it discovered more than I expected and now lists 136 devices (721 entities) so I'm now looking to see what I can do with it.
