### 2/5 — For a couple of weeks only vacuums rug and exclude the surface

*2026-08-29, version 3.15.1*

Quite inconvenient when a room has a rug and only cleans the rug. The rest of the room which is hard surface always gets ignored. Unless I don’t select a zone, it does not clean. Have this for a couple of weeks and it has this problem from the start. Consistently updating the app assuming it will provide a bug fix but it doesn’t. Not the kind of app if you need to save time 👎

### 4/5 — ECI éc

*2026-08-28, version 3.15.1*

Good

### 4/5 — Great entry level unit

*2026-08-28, version 3.15.1*

Love the self cleaning, maintenance

### 3/5 — Is it adware or app for a vacuum?

*2026-08-26, version 3.15.1*

I am disappointed with user experience. The app wants to sell me services and making even trivial things hard and not intuitive. I would gladly use an app to get what I need for my vacuum if I like the experience. With currents experience I can promise that I will never buy anything in the app. Please change it!

### 2/5 — Too much focus on selling

*2026-08-25, version 3.15.1*

Too much focus on selling cleaning products and the app keeps timing out. Would delete the app if there was another way to use the vacuum

### 3/5 — Garbage app

*2026-08-23, version 3.15.1*

This app is a dumpster fire. It will not recover the original map despite my best efforts, following the manufacturer’s directions. I can hit restore, but the app will not load that map for cleaning. Why y’all can’t get a simple thing like adding the original map correct, is beyond me. This dumb thing creates multiple maps despite ‘multi floor maps’ being turned off. How hard is that? Why don’t you have a simple map section on the Home Screen of your app? Handle all necessary adjustments, changes, and restorations in one uncluttered screen? The robot is great; too bad the one thing it can’t clean up is this garbage app.

### 3/5 — Gets stuck

*2026-08-22, version 3.15.1*

The vac seems to get stuck a fair bit on a lot of things like cords

### 5/5 — Best company warranty ever

*2026-08-21, version 3.15.1*

A part on my original vacuum broke and they took care of it by sending me a brand new vacuum! I’m beyond impressed

### 5/5 — Love my BF Eric Ecovac!

*2026-08-19, version 3.15.1*

QUIET and works very well! I’m getting better on the app navigation, not the best but hopefully it improves!

### 5/5 — Sản phẩm

*2026-08-18, version 3.15.1*

Sản phẩm tốt

### 5/5 — Exelecte

*2026-08-17, version 3.15.1*

Mi vida es mal fácil tengo más tiempo para mi

### 5/5 — yiko

*2026-08-16, version 3.15.1*

Can’t always get Yiko to answer especially when back at base after a clean or even while cleaning sometimes

### 2/5 — Terrible. Robot cannot connect to WiFi

*2026-08-15, version 3.15.1*

Tried every troubleshooting step. Switched to 2.4GHz, wasted a couple of hours.

### 1/5 — bad

*2026-08-29, version 3.15.1*

won’t connect, we already did the setup and it says to setup again because device is offline but it doesn’t work?? tried all the troubleshoot. app times out. fix ur app

### 1/5 — Terrible

*2026-08-27, version 3.15.1*

Terrible ! Constantly losing the maps and the backup option has no impact… you always have to map again and again. Lots of time, consequently money!

### 1/5 — Bad software

*2026-08-23, version 3.15.1*

Bad software. Needing to reset map because the map get distorted on its own 
Bad hardware. Left wheel stuck in up position. Machine is 2 years old. 
Customer service abysmal

### 1/5 — Filled with ads and spam

*2026-08-23, version 3.15.1*

I just want to keep my home clean. I don’t want to earn points to redeem at the ecovacs store for more accessories. Why is the vacuum app set up like a gacha game?

### 1/5 — Volume

*2026-08-17, version 3.15.1*

App ignores volume setting on software updates. It’s like unexpected person in your house with a loudspeaker.

### 1/5 — Worst app and mapping ever

*2026-08-16, version 3.15.1*

The mapping in this app is just a nightmare!

### 1/5 — Not dependable or not an easy setup

*2026-08-12, version 3.15.1*

The app keeps ‘forgetting’ that the robot was set up and the robot skipped cleaning half a room already. Now I have to troubleshoot all this :(

### 1/5 — The App SUCKS

*2026-08-11, version 3.15.1*

I upgraded? From a iRobot to Deebot. The App is totally non-intuitavive and difficult to operate when compared to iRobot.  It gives me a notification that my clean water is empty every run.  I HAVE IT SET TO VACUUM ONLY!  Is that really a difficult programming issue?  It shows me a map, but I dont know if that’s the original map or where the bot actually VACUUMED!  It doesn’t show how long it operated and I still find doh hair on the floor when it is done.  AGAIN, THE APP SUCKS!

### 1/5 — Все плохо!

*2026-08-09*

До этого через раз получалось зайти. Теперь после обновления не заходит и не восстанавливает пароль! Исправьте хотя бы восстановление пароля!

### 1/5 — Ужас, сломали все

*2026-08-08*

После последнего обновления, оно даже не запускается, вылетает сразу

### 5/5 — Love my Ecovacs T50

*2026-08-29, version 3.15.1*

Over two months of daily usage and I am impressed with this little machine. It powerful vacuum and self cleaning mop performance are comparable to machines twice this price point. Highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Best thing ever

*2026-08-28, version 3.15.1*

Such a great purchase. We basically don’t have to vacuum every day anymore. Just on weekends to get to the bits where it can’t reach

### 5/5 — Nice cut

*2026-08-28, version 3.15.1*

It does a nice job cutting makes nice lines.

Great machine!!!!

### 5/5 — Nice

*2026-08-27, version 3.15.1*

Have the deebot neo 2
Very easy to setup and hasn’t missed a beat in over a year. House is a mix of carpet and hard floor have a set timer once a day keeps the house clean even with our Golden retriever.Just have to empty after every run
Would like to see an iPad version of the app with better zoom instead of iPhone version for both
