Very interesting.. after you mentioned it, so did I (wonder about it).

So I looked up the "why" it needs wifi, and it returned this:

Why do vacuum cleaners have Wi-Fi?- Usage Patterns: These devices track when and how often you clean your home, which can provide insights into your daily routines, such as when you're typically at home, asleep, or away. - Wi-Fi Network Details: To offer remote access and updates, smart vacuums connect to your home Wi-Fi network.19 Aug 2024..

Hmmm, makes me wonder if they are sponsoring people to break into da house when your away...

Call me a cynic if you will.



Cheers,
