Great update!

With this update, my robot doesn’t dig itself into the loose mulch in my garden anymore. Thank you! I would love to be able to save this as a “favorite “ algorithm and always be able to go back to it in the future. It would be ideal to be able to have an advanced menu where I can choose from past algorithms and still benefit from other bug fixes.

Gives basic feedback and not much else

The main things it will tell you is the charge of the battery and how much energy the panel is generating, which is pretty useful information if you're not getting the run time you expect.

As for the rest of the app, well, my bot's firmware is V1.6 and the app says latest available is 1.1. There is a mystery test mode that doesn't do anything and a Status Detail icon that pops up "status details" when you touch it. Brilliant!
There's also a bunch of dead links the support section takes you to so don't bother looking for the manual.

Some gardening time, distance travelled and weeds whacked and rescues needed stats would be fun but oh well.

I suspect the project is essentially dead but the hardware is great and this little guy actually does what it says it will do on the box so who really cares about the app.
