Developer reverse-engineers Coway Airmega IconS purifier to remove cloud dependency
A hobbyist documented how they reverse-engineered the networking of a discontinued Coway Airmega IconS air purifier in order to control it locally through Home Assistant and Apple HomeKit, rather than relying on Coway's cloud-connected app. The project builds on an existing community-built Home Assistant integration for Coway devices, extending it to integrate the purifier into a smart-home 'Good Night' routine.
