Well that's it, the fact that you have created a new device means nothing. It's just an empty shell until you actually connect a real device to the engine and start sending heartbeats, that's when it will show properly.
What would be the point seeing a bunch of ghost devices in the WebApp when you are still setting things up?
Just connect your device and I can bet you on the first hearbeat it will popup just like that.

To be pedantic, you can actually see even what you call a "ghost" device in the WebApp just switch to "list mode" view

You can be as pedantic as you want mate! Never pressed that button and it's actually quite handy 🧐🫶 thnx
My point still stands though, don't want to see ghosts 👻👀
