Airly
airly
The Airly integration uses the Airly web service as a source for air quality data for your location.
In Apple Home through HomeKit Bridge
What HomeKit Bridge makes of each kind of entity this integration creates, read from its source code. A device only gets the ones that apply to it.
| Entity | Shows up as | Note |
|---|---|---|
sensor | Sensor (NO₂, PM10, PM2.5, carbon monoxide, humidity, temperature) |
What people report

How it connects

Limitations from the docs
- Airly allows 100 data updates per day. Data updates become less frequent as you add Airly integration instances, as described in Data updates.
In ReReHome
Whatever HomeKit Bridge shares reaches Apple Home as normal HomeKit accessories behind your Home Assistant bridge, so ReReHome shows and controls them like any other.
Bridges get their own settings page listing the accessories behind them.
