Hi Sandy, How about these push notification, are they part of the repertoire: Pew, I hate hairballs Yak, I just ran over something brown, warm and squishy, did you forget to let out the dog again Help, the dog just peed on me and all I was trying to do is suck up the mutts hair Oops, what was that, did you let your pet mouse run around again?
Maybe I should write a book along the lines of Christine where robo vac goes rogue. Good luck, just make sure and watch your back!

Hi, Don't want to tire people with all this talk of robot vacuums, but, just thought, rather than leave it in the air, primarily extolling the virtues of the Roomba range of vacs, I would mention the competition, which also has an app, and which, I am 99 per cent certain, I am going to buy. It is the BotVac Connect from Neatorobotics. It is about 200 dollars cheaper and has great reviews. I downloaded the app, which is a free app, created an account, which was easy, and now am playing with my pretend Bot, wishing it were real! In other words, it looks like the app is VO friendly, but one does need to have a Bot to be sure to be sure. From my reading, and playing with the app, I see that you can get push notifications as to how the bot is doing. This would me most useful as otherwise the info would be shown on the display and, therefor, not accessible to us. Notifications might be, for example, "I need emptying", "My brushes need cleaning", "my sensors need a wipe", "I have finished cleaning and am docked" or "I am stuck, please help me!". Once it is linked to the house wifi, you can use the app to get him to do the whole of one floor, from anywhere in the world. If he gets, say, half way through his task and needs to refuel, he will dock himself and once recharged, will return to where he left off and continue! Pretty good IMHO.
