AIR GUARD SAWF-07P & SAWF-08P: When supported at i-HOST and CUBE OS

eWeLink CUBE
1

Why are these devices, which have been on sale for several days, still not compatible with i-HOST (2.8.1) and CUBE OS (2.8.1)?

When will they be compatible?

The same applies to the current version of eWeLink Web (V 3.22.0 [2025.12.24]).

Greetings

Good to know, I won’t buy an air guard yet.

Because that’s typical Sonoff professionalism.

For the 02DR2, eWelink WEB is supposed to be compatible by the end of January
 So maybe for the rest of them, something around that time or later. :confused:

I have criticized it several times that they release a new product and the customer has to wait a relatively long time for it to work on iHost or another gateway.

Again, we don’t know the scope of their work, but if there are a few people who handle everything, I wouldn’t be surprised.

I’ve already bought one, so I’ll have to wait. This isn’t the way to market your products; wait until they’re compatible with all platforms before releasing them to the public.

Everyone does it this way, I don’t know why it’s different here.

I think they’re doing it because of the competition.

In other words, since the market is saturated with devices and new ones keep arriving, whoever gets to the market first wins. We’ll see what happens after that.

We can say, quite frankly, that the priority isn’t customer satisfaction, but competition and profit.

The competitive fight is without compromises. But the situation is that they released airguard, which I am also interested in, but I can’t use it because it doesn’t work on iHost and it is questionable whether it will work on other gateways. Simply put, I want it but I don’t want to wait, so I’ll buy it from the competition. Because they managed to update their products before the release so that it is supported everywhere.

My personal solution is as follows:

I have i-Host for the vast majority of my devices (80 devices in total), which in my case are Zigbee, but I also use the eWeLink app. It’s a hybrid solution.

It’s truly unfortunate that new compatibility updates are slow to arrive on i-Host.

If desired, a compatible device can be listed on both platforms, i-Host and the eWeLink app.

In this case, I don’t use any ZB Bridge Ultra.

The eWeLink app doesn’t list the Zigbee devices (50 devices), but rather the Wi-Fi devices (30 devices), specifically the current situation with the SAWF-07P and SAWF-08P.

I have iHost all the devices are there and I wanted to share everything to NSpanel pro via matter bridge. But they can’t use matter bridge and they can’t fix it because I’ve been waiting for about a month.

Hi Adolfo,

Support for AIR GUARD SAWF-07P and SAWF-08P on both eWeLink Web and i-HOST / CUBE OS is currently in progress and planned for Q1 2026.

  • eWeLink Web support is expected to be available around February 2026.

  • i-HOST support is planned for March 2026.

Incidentally, when the “Air Quality Indicator” and “Alert Sound” options are enabled on both devices, the scheduled days and times for the “Do Not Disturb” option are not followed, and the operation is erratic: the alert sound activates or the indicator LED remains lit.

We have no choice but to wait.

Are you serious?
March?
What kind of weird company policy is this?
ihost-2 - never released.
ihost-1 - support abandoned.

March is quite far away. I completely agree that strange updates are solved.

In older posts I complained that iHost is discontinued. Even though it occasionally gets an update.

Now is worried about NSpanel pro, which I can’t use because I can’t share devices to nspp due to a broken bridge issue in iHost.

This is terrible.
You are discouraging customers from buying.

New devices without support = dead devices.

As an installer, when I see how fast you are rushing, what should I do?

A customer won’t buy your iHost if they find out they might get support for the feature they need in March. People want it now and don’t want to wait, you might understand.

It’s sad news that we still have to wait so long.

Will support for IHOST/CUBEOS be via Matter or the eWeLink Smart Home add-on?

Is there any news about iHost-v2?
Many Home Assistant updates have already been missed due to the end of 32-bit support.
Should we wait for iHost-v2 or skip the wait and buy a new device from another manufacturer?
