Hello Knguyen,

It should work fine:

> [@\[SOLVED\] Official IKEA Trådfri App crashes?](https://community.homey.app/t/solved-official-ikea-tradfri-app-crashes/93307/1):

> I have two VINDSTYRKA air quality sensors connected directly to Homey Pro (early 2019), so without IKEA gateway.

So,  
First replace the battery, even if it was delivered with a ‘new’ one; try to pair the unit again.

If that makes no difference, continue reading:  
When it’s the only zigbee unit, I advice you to reset Homey’s zigbee.  
Now, when you want to pair the unit again, make sure to keep it very close to Homey, just few inches/centimeters.
