How to factory reset the Mila Air Purifier

Performing a factory reset on the Mila Air Purifier is a great way to troubleshoot technical issues or prep it for a new owner. Here's how it works.

The Mila Air Purifier is designed to be up and running in minutes, and it doesn't require a lot of maintenance to keep it running without any hiccups. However, every so often, you may encounter an issue with your Mila, be it a connectivity hiccup or a problem with the fan not activating. While there are often troubleshooting steps you can take (such as checking the position of your air filter or restarting your phone), performing a factory reset is a last-ditch effort to correct the issue.

But since there's no factory reset button on the device or located within the mobile app, it can be confusing if you're trying to figure out how to perform the action. Thankfully, there's a quick way to factory reset your Mila that takes just a few minutes. So if you're looking for a way to troubleshoot issues or are prepping to sell your Mila, here's how it works.

Keep in mind that performing a factory reset on your Mila Air Purifier will wipe all your existing settings. This makes it great if you want to start fresh, but it also means you'll need to go through the setup process again. Once you've decided that a factory reset is the right option for you, follow these simple steps.

Step 1: Turn off your Mila Air Purifier. The power button is located on the bottom of the device toward the back panel.

Step 2: Remove the front filter panel, exposing the air filter inside.

Step 3: Turn on the Mila Air Purifier using the power button.

Step 4: You should now see a message on its display telling you to press all three buttons to start the Factory Reset.

Step 5: Hold down all three buttons on the Mila screen to begin the process.

If you decide not to go through with the factory reset, you can power off the device instead of pressing all three buttons. However, be sure to keep the device powered on once the factory reset has been initiated, otherwise you may run into issues. Once the reset is complete, you should be able to go through the setup process as if it were a brand new device.

Outdoor security cameras are not always practical if you live in an apartment or rental. Drilling into an exterior wall may be off-limits, while pointing a regular indoor camera through a window can create another problem once reflections start showing up after dark.

Baseus is trying to solve both issues with the new PrimeSentinel W1, a $69.99 security camera designed specifically to monitor the outdoors through glass. It mounts directly to a window without drilling and uses a 4K Starlight sensor with an F1.0 aperture for full-color monitoring during the day and at night.

Technology evolves every day, transforming how we live and work. Our devices are becoming more than tools we use. They are increasingly capable companions that help streamline day-to-day routines and spark creative ideas. If you have been waiting for the right moment to upgrade your tech setup, the Discover Samsung Shopping Event offers an opportunity to explore what connected, AI-powered living can look like.

With AI progressing so fast, it's only a matter of time before we start getting AI companions like the ones we used to see in movies like R2-D2, Wall-E, or Baymax. Now, Singapore-based OKA Technology has unveiled Mori, a cute little AI companion that looks less like a conventional home robot and more like someone turned the Pokémon Foongus into a table lamp.

Mori isn't meant to clean your house or control your smart home, but to serve as what OKA calls a "Nature Companion." It uses subtle movements, warm lighting, nature-inspired sounds, and small reactions to make its presence around the house feel calming rather than distracting. Mori can sit quietly while you read, sway along to music, welcome you when you enter a room, or encourage you to slow down for a moment without requiring a screen or a conversation.
