Ask HN: What happened to Awair indoor air quality company?
Hey HN!

Years ago, I purchased a bunch of Awair indoor air quality devices and spread them around my house after hearing about them here on HN. I ended up upgrading them to Awair Elements last year after the company announced the end of life for older models.

Well, for about a week, I haven't been able to connect to any of my devices with their official iOS (and Android) app. Their API servers seem to be down. Connection LED on my devices is constantly flashing because it cannot connect to their servers.

And it seems that their official Twitter account has been closed too [1].

Did they go bankrupt? Any idea if anyone's working on a hack to keep the devices going? Or are they destined for the trash dump? If anyone has any info, please share.
