Suddenly connected!
Today the App connected with my Robomow for the first time after I have tried intermittently for 4 months with no success at all. The previous version of the app had been fine for connecting. Must be yesterday’s update. At last!
Tonte en manuel
Robomow on enlever le mode manuel et tonte en même temps, c est vraiment pas pratique, lors d un prochain achat se sera vraiment à prendre en considération ( huskavarna) a contourner en mettant un détecteur de longueur de Gazon, robomow ne le fait pas ( question de loi possiblement)ou ne peu le faire ,je sais pas mais le problème reste le même,je suis très déçu

Still needs improveing
Sadly still a flaky app. Connecting to the mower via Bluetooth is always a lottery also don’t be deceived by the image showing that you can manually cut the lawn using the app, you can’t, this was removed a while ago (robomow please remove the image).
If manually cutting an awkward small piece of lawn is important to you then you may need to look to another brand.

What Next?
I am finding my Robomow RS 635 Pro S awesome but the app feels very average by comparison. Some points for improvement:
Bluetooth connection range seems very limited (like you almost have to be standing over the mower)
I have yet to get any info on “next depart” or “next zone” even after receiving the 5 min warning of mower about to restart. At this point it shows 99% charged. But the Next items require the mower to be fully charged.
Like the control over scheduling but again doesn’t seem to give you an idea of when the mower will next be heading out and when it will complete the current cycle.
Please bring the app upto par with the mower!

1-step forward, 2-steps backwards
The refresh of the app looks good and it fixed connectivity issues that I had but it also took out manual mowing for those spots that need touch up, and they also removed remaining battery %.
One thing I wish they would do is let you lower the remaining battery threshold from 35% to a user definable value. This would allow more cutting time before it stops and looks for home base.
UPDATE:
Latest software updates now includes the % battery remaining. Still can’t manually mow as needed like we used to. Still can’t adjust the remaining battery % threshold.
Other than that, I love the mower 🙂

Why did you disable remote control option?
What was the reason that with the new update you guys disable the remote control option over app ? We want it back how am I supposed to control my Robomow manuelly with the blade running?
Manual Mowing Removed !!!
Buyer beware. After just a year of owning my mower, the company maliciously removed the feature to manually mow my grass. This was a critical feature given some of my plots were wide enough for wiring to be installed. Please get us this feature back.
Hmm not so cheap. Reliability?
I love robotic lawn mowing and do not understand why you do not see more. The app is fine. This is Spring 2020 my mower went into service spring 2016. I just had to place another order for a mowing motor. So now EVERY MAJOR COMPONENT ON THE MOWER HAS BEEN REPLACED. Main board 3x, front board 1x, both drive motors 1x, both mow motors 1x, display 1x, charging unit 1x, remote perimeter box 3x. So DO NOT THINK you will be saving money over traditional mowing. And you will be doing the service (yes it is modular and easy). I hope to leave this one behind when I mover and try another brand, the failure rate is unacceptable.

Worthless on multiple facets
$2200 two years ago to purchase their top of the line robotic mower. Got about 10 uses out of it, then started finding it in the street at various places. Even witnessed it a couple of times, so it wasn’t kids just being kids. Adjusted the guide wire, but that didn’t help. Reached out for help on two occasions, but never received a reply. Had to put the piece of junk in storage, and purchase a GreenWorks mower and do it the old fashioned way. I’m reminded of the situation every time I see the green wire in the ground, when I spent several hours following the instructions to the letter. Stay clear of Robomow!

What happened to manual mowing?!?!
Connectivity is improved with 2.0, however, loss of manual mowing is a giant pain in the ass. Impossible to do touch-ups and mow areas that can’t be wired. Bring manual mowing back!!!
