Airthings

If you have multiple Airthings monitors in multiple homes, such as a rental property, you can now visually separate the locations of your monitors in the app. 

Example use case #1: I have my main house and a separate guest house on my property that I am renting out. I don't always want to see the guest house's monitors while looking at my main home's indoor air quality.

Example use case #2: I loaned out my monitor to a friend or family member, and they want to use my account for logging in. I want to separate their home and my home while they borrow my extra monitor.

You should not create a new "home" for each room in your house. To change a monitor's location and name to a specific room in your house, please follow the guide <a href="https://help.airthings.com/en/articles/9630147-airthings-app-how-do-i-change-my-room">here</a>.

How to move a monitor from one home to another

When changing homes it is recommended to start a new measuring segment. By following the steps in this article, your current measurement will end in your app and a new measurement segment will start.
