A custom tile is for essentially a mini web page that is displayed on the dashboard. To do 6 tiles you would have to code the UI and the backend code to work as tiles.
I used custom tiles to mainly give my tiles a different UI.
This is a custom tile for presence sensors.
This is another type of custom tile. It’s a self updating radar tile.
