What people report

Philips AC3033 air purifier	Works	Works flawlessly Saved copy Same here, AC3033 work flawlessly, but not with AC0850 Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #172 · 2023-12
Philips AC3039 air purifier	Works	Works flawlessly Saved copy My AC3039 works flawlessly with the homebridge plugin but unfortunately my new AC0850 doesn’t. The AC0850 shows up in the Apple Home app, but nothing happens when I hit the power button or change speed slider. I made sure that the AC0850 has a reserved IP address on the router. I found a plugin that seemed to be specifically designed for the AC0850: https://github.com/ptah4i/Homebridge-PhilipsAirPlatform/tree/ptah4i-dev but that plugin is in early development and couldn’t get it to work. Could you please add support for the AC0850? Please let me know if you need any further info. Many thanks … Excerpt saved from GitHub on 2026-10-22.	Issue #172 · 2023-12
