Works well with Roborock vacuum (bad update)
Lowering from 5 stars.. recently has been having severe issues logging into my account. It logs me out each time I open and then tells me that my account is “invalid”, and only way to get in is by resetting pass. It’s broken.
Update: they added a major feature I requested so changing to 5 stars.. it doesn’t work perfect but I’m happy! Just wish there were a few more features, such as setting virtual walls or spots for the vacuum to avoid. Seems like it is entirely capable of doing so. And better Alexa integration.. currently has only the bare minimum to work as a smart skill. All I can do is say “Start vacuum”.. but nothing else. And as usual it only supports 2.4ghz which is really unfortunate because that frequency has tons of interference and is often unreliable in my home. Also please add IFTTT support!!Show lessmrAssman
Dreamebot D10plus and Dreamebot W10
Hello everyone, I have this vacuums already around year. One what I can tell I really like to use D10 for carpet cleaning and I really really love!!! to use W10 for hardwood floor. W10 my favorite, I have two dogs and one cat and my house really clean. And my privacy is safe. I did huge research with different brands, and maybe on market you have more “smart” vacuums, but it will has cameras which always can interact your privacy, I don’t believe in such cybersecurity, so I prefer good stuff with out cameras. For me this two the best choice.Show lessNatka2109!
Not perfect hut ok
App is somewhat not user friendly. Need to search, trial and error, got something by chance. The region setting is vital important in initial setting. I am in USA and the app recommended choose United States of America which will lead to watch never found by app. Then after two days found the region selection in profile section and chosen Mainland China. Hooray app found my watch in few seconds. The afterwards setup is ok and successful. You should add a note for overseas user to choose Mainland China first and after set up, can change to user’s time zone and use it good all over the world.Show lesssmooth day
Xiaomi Electric Scooter 4 Pro
Is a great scooter, hampered by this useless app. I literally have to install a home management app to lock/unlock/update the scooter, as if it were a home appliance. Of course, this ever will remain the only item in this app, which even with shortcut on the home screen, makes the user experience ludicrously convoluted. Not EVER going to buy a not HomeKit compliant home automation device, nor a phone/tablet. So 98% of what the app is able to do, just gets in the way. But worse, the Scooter doesn’t support automation, so one can’t even make lock/unlock shortcuts. But it doesn’t stop there. Home Automation from a watch interface remains a clumsy experience. But the ONE thing one would be wanting to use the app for, to lock/unlock the scooter, so one doesn’t have to carry the phone or dig it out of a bag: THAT’s exactly what the watch app can’t do: it doesn’t seem to display any device that’s not a home automation device (assuming it works at all, given that the only device I have is the scooter which doesn’t show). So, watch app is useless to lock/unlock the scooter; the iPhone app takes at least half a dozen taps plus waiting for BT connection and Face ID to achieve the action. The whole app thing mars the otherwise pleasant experience driving the scooter; real pity, because it’s a constant nuisance: every stop you make with the scooter, you’re annoyed over and over again.Show lessNai-De
Poor camera management
Before the last updates, my camera was working pretty well, recording every movement and sending appropriate notifications but now, I see recordings and alerts for flies, birds, bushes moved by the wind, car front lights, but almost nothing when humans walk straight in front of the camera on lowest setting. Why can’t we disable notifications delay that is set by default to 3 minutes? Why are notifications and event recordings all mixed up? For instance : if the camera detects a fly (the insect), it records the fly, sends a notification but if within the notification delay (3 minutes min.) someone comes in front of the camera, nothing is recorded, nothing is detected, so basically anyone can trick the Xiaomi pro cameras and become ghost burglars if not worse, why are they called Pro in the first place? Sometimes, it detects humans coming back that were not detected going out and vice versa, sometimes, we just see the door being open, a foot going out and the recording stops there. Please Xiaomi, fix your camera management systems, every event should be recorded in full and the sensitivity should be according to settings, no flies detected on lowest setting!Show lessThi-cot
SCAM!!! BEWARE
This app requires you to provide your Apple ID and password. When I tried to create an account with Facebook, or entering my email address it told me that my Gmail account is invalid (I’ve had it for more than ten years). Then, I called support for the app and they insisted I have to provide the serial number of the blender I wanted to connect. This is absurd! While we tried to read the serial number that was in such small type that our regular magnifier could barely make it readable, the customer service person hung up on me.
Do not install this app. It is clearly trying to get you Apple ID information and is a complete scam!!!Show lessLorraineWDC
Potential bugs after update
The app seems not granting access to view Live image of it's controlled surveillance camera. It says its because the device only supports up to four channels, But it should not be my case since I only registered 2 administrators. It runs to never ending unsuccessful loading when I try to check recordings Or live image. Camera works fine and catches all image changes, But app doesn't function accordingly. Please fix Thank you very much.Show lessGivemeSSRpleaseOhmylordy
Generally good
So far the app is generally good. My only complaint is Sign in with Apple is COMPLETELY butchered. If you first Sign in with Apple it’ll make you go back to the home page and then you have to Sign in with Apple again and then it asks for your email (which it should already know if implemented correctly). After initial set up if you sign in again with Apple, it makes you once again confirm conditions you’ve already confirmed and then once again asks for your email (which it already has…).
Other than Sign in with Apple issues, I’m pretty satisfied with the app. I have the W10 mop vacuum and it is really cool, the map is nice. My one note if is there is a firmware update and it is already cleaning, it’s a pain. It’ll say “update now” or “exit”. You can’t update if it’s cleaning and if you exit you can’t stop it from cleaning. Exit needs to simply dismiss the message, not force you back to the home page.
Still, 4 star app, don’t let the 2 negatives I’ve pointed out deter anyone from using because overall it’s good.Show lessUpset Updates
Robby the robot
Robby the robot as my kids happily named him works excellent on both my hard wood floors and carpet and transitions well to both. I went ahead and purchased the maintenance kit which includes new brushes, sensors, pads etc for an extra $25. I have had mine for about 6 months now with no problems. But I am also very diligent about watching the app for notifications about cleaning periods and what to switch out…. Super easy. We really like robby he’s a great addition.Show less#Mrmom
