Know What's in Your Air
Glow tracks the key factors of your air quality: Chemicals (VOCs), CO2, Humidity, and Temperature. These elements can impact your health and comfort in many ways, including respiratory health, sleep, focus, skin health, and immunity. You can use personal preference modes to sleep better, control your allergies, increase productivity, or improve your general health.

Control Your Air
With Glow’s plug feature, you can connect and automatically turn on products like fans, humidifiers, heaters, purifiers, and many other devices. Glow makes your “non-smart” devices, smart. It will power on your devices the moment your air quality drops. Based on decades of research, Glow also gives you actionable insights and tips that are proven to help you stay safe and healthy. Awair has partnered with Mayo Clinic to provide helpful tips through the app.

How did you come up with the idea for this product?
When Ronald Ro had his first child, he, like many other parents, found out that his baby was suffering from eczema. After many frustrating months of research and trying a seemingly endless number of strategies, he realized that his baby girl’s suffering was closely linked to the quality of the air around her. What he also realized was that there weren’t any products available that could help him understand what was in her air and how he could make her more comfortable. Using his engineering background Ron decided to build a device that could track chemicals and toxins in the air. He connected with his close friend Kevin Cho and they built the first Awair… for his daughter.

Product Description
Do you know what's in the air you're breathing? Truth is, indoor air can be more polluted than outside, affecting allergies, asthma, eczema, sleep, and much more. Awair Glow tracks toxins and chemicals in your air and gives you personalized tips to help you stay safe and healthy. Glow plugs directly into the wall and can also turn on your “non-smart” devices the moment your air quality drops (or at certain times throughout the day). Glow covers up to 1,000 sq ft and works with iPhone iOS (8 or later) and Android (Jelly Bean 4.3 or later).

I see a great philosophy in the core concept of this product and its overall design. This, its future models and the app will definitely make the central controller of my indoor environment related appliances. It looks great and modern to be placed anywhere needed. Not just it doesn't take away a power port in a crucial space, it provides a great remote on/off button too.
The motion sensor works perfectly seamlessly to provide me sufficient night light. I've almost forgotten the art of finding things in the dark like my glasses, light switch, my water bottle and the list goes on.
I just opened a support ticket; key take away, I purchase device in 2018 which the Awair system stop working with in 2020. In 2020 I purchase a new product that Awair "sunset" meaning planned obsolesce two years later. Don't purchase from this company.
Oh - and while they are nicely telling you that the're ripping you off they ask you to give them another opportunity to do so with a special offer.
Yeah - I did that twice, not a third time.
The also mention this applies to "Hobbyist Devices"...first it was never sold as a Hobbyist Device, but I guess the non-commercial customer base is not important to Awair.
See support email at the bottom of the review.
I purchase this in 2018 and it stopped working in 2020.
I opened a support ticket and found out that the Awair server crash and they were down for awhile.
After the server was back up support asked me to register the device again, which I did and it never worked.
Support response was slow and after many emails, I purchase another device.
Hey - things break and the device worked originally and I like the service it performed.
I purchase the new one in 2020 and in middle 2021 I moved. I never got around to connected the new device again until today 2023.
It will not connect, and more or less seems to have the same problem.
In fact this time the App is telling me that the device is not able to contact the server.
Anyway don't buy Awair products, support is marginal, product is not reliable - this is not a device issue, this is something cloud side where Awair is not allowing the device to connect.
************************************************************************************************************************Hello,
Thanks for reaching out to Awair! My name is (XXXXX) and I'm happy to assist. We appreciate your patience in awaiting our response.
Awair has made it possible for you to know what’s in your air since 2013. Some of our oldest devices (Glow/Glow-C/Awair V1) are no longer able to update firmware, and so we will be sunsetting these oldest devices starting on November 30, 2022. What is sunsetting? In short, your device will lose app support and the ability to connect to Awair's Cloud services. It will still continue to measure air quality, provided it is onboarded before this date and is not factory reset. The air data will only be accessible via the device's front screen (if it has one). Additionally, the Hobbyist API will no longer be serving any requests.
To determine if your device is considered a legacy product, simply check the power charger port on the back panel of the device -- if it has a USB-C charge port, it is not a legacy product and will not be sunset.
In appreciation for our legacy users' support, we recently rolled out an upgrade program to purchase a brand new Awair Element at a discounted price of $99 USD to keep everyone up to date with air monitoring efforts. The Element contains upgraded sensors and, unlike the Glow devices, includes PM2.5 and CO2. This program offer expired on January 20, 2023, but we would be happy to honor the discount as a courtesy to you as a long-time supporter of Awair and our devices. Simply feel free to use your regionally appropriate checkout page listed below, and after completing your purchase of one or more Awair Element devices, provide us your order number from your confirmation email and associated email address so we can process a refund for the portion normally discounted by this program! If you experience any issues while checking out, please let us know so we can assist you!
The motion light works reasonably well if you want it, but it seemed to freak our cats out.
One thing I was a bit disappointed in was the tips in the app. They really hype this but some of the tips don't even make sense. It's August and it's telling me about buying a humidifier when it's 54%. The next card in the app will be about dehumidifiers. They need to improve this feature and show more relevant information based on actual trends with the data. Even so, some of the suggestions are reasonable.
The app itself is rather usable. I'm primarily using the android version and it works pretty well. It took me a minute to notice that the history is available in the trend view by clicking on yesterday and then going farther back from there. Occasionally it seems to loose connection to the device but recovers pretty quickly.

24時間グラフで全体のバランスがみえる
6畳くらいだと30分もしないうちに二酸化炭素濃度が2000超えて、部屋閉めっきりで一晩寝て朝起きたら二酸化炭素濃度が6000になってました 笑 数値だけみて心のダメージきますが、見なければわからないと思います。今では部屋のドア少し開けて寝て二酸化炭素濃度1000以下を保ってます

購入理由は二酸化炭素濃度が上がったら換気扇を付けると言うことをやりたかったのだが、家が古いせいか一晩寝ても1400ppm程度しか行かなかった。勝手に自然換気がそこそこ出来ていたようだ。とはいえ、睡眠の質を上げる為に1000ppmを越えたら換気する様にするつもり。
