@KevinH is correct, before the release of the v2 hub you could choose which tile value you wanted to display in the Things list and unfortunately that went away. Now this said, through code you can accomplish what you are asking. You will need to create your own device handler to accomplish this and its a matter of setting which tile you want to use as “main”. The downside by creating your own device handler is that it will no longer run locally so if you have any locally running Smart Lighting rules that leverage this sensor, they will no longer run locally. I used the following steps to change one of my Iris contact sensors to show the temperature in the things list: Login to the IDE and click My Device Handlers.
