I robot needs to hire the Roborock engineers and get Lidar, their navigation is terrible

Roborocks are the best robot vacuums!

Your video and instructions were a huge help getting started with my new Roborock. Thank you!

Just got the Roborock S6 MaxV and this was very helpfull thanks! :D

Outstanding video! Just bought S5 Max and this is very helpful!

Thanks for the video. Answered all my questions to multi level map & handling ! Cool that you can just move to a floor and go.

Just bought the roborock s6! Happy new years to you!

I love the song it plays when it boots up

Followed your advice under another video and bought S6 Maxv. No regrets 😉 Also a tip for the glass and mirror objects. If it doesn't bother you, you can stick a 10cm wide strip of paper to the bottom of the door or mirror end to end. Works like a charm. The robot "sees" the objects at approx. 10cm height.

Thanks for explaining the mapping feature. 😉👍

thanks i didnt know it selected the floor map automaticcly so thats awesome :)

you helped so much!! thanks

Great and very helpful video👌👌👌

I have a wall with lots of windows that are close to the floor. The map shows the outdoor as an additional room. When the robot runs, it goes back and forth along that wall with the window multiple time, even though I have put no go zone on the outside section. Any suggestions?

This is an incredibly helpful video! How would you recommend mapping to avoid rugs when using the mopping attachment? Would I have to save a second map and block them off as no-go zones?

Thank you, Nathan. Could you go through the features on the app itself on a video? Also, I’m waiting for my s4 max to arrive, should I install the app ahead of time? On IPhone 11 app, I don’t see the correct app for s4 max??. Thanks for your excellent help. From California

I have the Roborock Q5 and have done the map but need to know how to name each area. It mapped bedrooms, bathrooms, closets, each in different colors and I can name each of these so I can choice to clean them individually but it lumped the family room, kitchen and dining room together as one big blue area. I know I can do it by zones, but I wanted to know if I can split the blue zone up and name different areas to make it easier than having to do a zone each time? Thank you.

Thank you

Hi Nathan, very good indeed. I wish you could test Roomba Combo. Do you think it’s good? One of these days it will have lidar as well 😃👍🏻🇵🇹🇵🇹. Cheers.

Nathan, this was such a serious presentation compared to your normal toss the boxes across the room videos. Did RR pay you for this one? Thanks for the tip about the FW update. Mine needed it.

Hi! When attempting the out of the box, initial mapping of my upstairs floorpan will the unit recognize the stairs edge and avoid it or do I need to block it off to avoid it falling down the stairs? Thank you for your response!

This works with the Roborock S4, I saw that it had a firmware update so now I can do Multi-Levels HOORAY.

Thanks for video! There is no option to select beta in my Mi Home app ? I have a E35 do you know if this version allows ability to save a map? The Mi home app is very confusing- at least to me ☺️.

Thanks for that great video for multifloor mapping. My question is what if the robit finished the cleaning the second floor but the dock is on the first floor? I will move the robot to the first floor just after hearing 'cleaning completed' and will it be confosed about which floor it is on now and where the dock?

Great video.. maybe it's been asked before but can you use the remote control mode to make the mapping process quicker?

Hi Nathan I just received my S6 MaxV today. I have watched your tutorial which is great. Thanks for doing them. What a help! I have a very large floor area. Our house is very long and large. My friend said to first do section by section so that it maps it properly. By listening to you and reading all the comments I think that would be the wrong way to do it. It took 30 minutes to do one long sunroom this afternoon. So it will take hours to do the entire house. Should I delete that first map of the sunroom that I did this afternoon and press start from the dock and let the vacuum go for it on the entire house for hours and then divide rooms if I need to on the app? If the doors are shut to the hallway or bedrooms whilst it is vacuuming later down the track (not while initially mapping), this wouldn't cause a problem to the machine mapping and vacuuming would it? It would just vacuum where it can get to that day? Thanks so much xx

Hi! Whenever I try to start the mapping, I get error 18 is this an issue or how can I fix it?

There might be a self-emptying bin ROBOROCK in January... No release date yet, I am just assuming, but I did see a comment on Adam’s Channel saying that he/she Emailed ROBOROCK about if they are making an Auto-Empty bin. They responded saying that they are in the process of making a self%emptying bin robot. Yessss! Also will the Amarey review be on Wednesday? Is the Amarey here yet?

Great review, any videos on how the multi floor feature works in S7 ?

During the initial mapping segment in the video, why did the unit skirt the section of carpet by the front door, but not actually map the carpet itself? Wouldn't the carpeted section be considered part of the floorplan map? Also, thank you for the video - very helpful!

I have a home but I spend most of my time with my little ones grandmother and want to use my roborock S4 at both since we stay lengthy durations at her house. Can I make a second map to be her house, or do I need to make the S4 think it's a second floor??

Hi. After initially mapping and then dividing the mapped area into 2 equal rooms - how do I instruct my S4 Max to only vacuum one of the 2 rooms? It's not intuitive to me. Thanks!!

Can I retrieve my roborock S6 maps to my new roborock S7?

So i have created and saved the downstairs map in my app with the new S6 Pure. Now I want to map the upstairs for the first time. Do I have to take the charging station upstairs too or just the robot?

Original s4 got multi floor support YAY

Just got one. The first time you use it to map, do you need to clear the floor of all obstacles, including chairs, lamps, coffee table etc...? Then once you put them all back it will detect the new obstacles on the floor and clean around them? Or do you leave those. If you leave them, but move them later will it clean the spot they were at, or will it go around it because that area was blocked when it initially mapped? It's weird that the app and manual really doesn't explain this

I just purchased a Roborock S7 and it’s leaving streaks on my floor. Is there a way to change the mopping direction?

Hello! Is it possible to create the map by driving boundarys of the house with remote control? Thank you!

Hi. I have Roborock S7. We had to remap the house for some reason and robo didn’t pick up one room even though the doors were open. I surely don’t want to remap but would like to add that one room to the existing map. How can we do that without remapping the entire house? Many thanks!

to map a different level of your home to you have to move the docking station to that floor?

Hi, i just bought the robot S6 MaxV. After I mapped the first part, how do I add another map without changing the docking station or having to clean the first part again?

I have kid gates up dividing my house in half. Should I pretend this is multi-level, or just create separate maps as a single level home?

Does it create a map while cleaning or do you have to create a map 1st before cleaning?

what If you have lower levels on the main floor - say two steps down to a family room but it is still the first floor. My main floor has two rooms that are two steps down - can that be one map?

I'm trying to make a new map on the S5. It ran out of battery. When I open the app, says no map.Will it finish the map once it is fully charged? Any help would greatly be appreciated. Ty

Just got this yesterday. It got stuck on my shag rug and it ripped one of the little rubber sweeper things off. Of course. So I spent hours trying to figure out how to block it from going on that rug. But I would like to have it go on the other side of the rug but the way my furniture is and the rug it can't happen. I have 2 cats. Now black Friday I bought the Roomba 677 and I loved it even after I vacuumed it sucked up so much hair I was disgusted but it was so random it wasn't getting all areas so I returned it after a couple days and alot of research to find an affordable vacuum with mapping. So I found the s4 max. So I used it last night and I feel like it didn't really get alot of stuff out of my carpet and hard floors. I'm on the fence about 5he rubber sweeper things vs the Roombas brush. Another downfall is this seems a little wider and isn't able to get under my dining chairs like the Roomba could. So when the chairs are pushed in it's only around the chairs so that's definitely a downfall. I'm not going to usey normal vacuum for a few days just to see if that makes a difference in anything. I'm still confused on the map and setting up rooms.

Have they fixed their carpet boost for high pile carpet?

Thank you Nathan! I just got my S4 Max and I still have yet to successfully create a full map of my house. :-( The first time I made a mistake and had my master suite door closed. I deleted that map and tried to have it map the entire house again but then it ran out of battery. After charging, it never returned to finish. So now I am starting from square one again and I’m trying to create a full map. Or is it better or possible to create one map (Map 1) keeping master suite door closed. And then create another map (Map 2) of just the master suite? I am just not sure how to do that in regards to the docking station…? I want to like this device, but so far I am frustrated. Please Help!

I was under the impression that the Roborock added rooms automatically if it for some reason didn't have access (closed doors etc.) to them while creating its initial map. Is this not true?

I have roborock s5 max . and I live in a two level house. I created both maps and they are OK. The map on screen now is the Second level map. Now if I moved the roborock and docking station back to ground level, how could I use the map corresponding to that level? Say I want to initiate a specifi room cleaning? Should I run a full cleaning so that the roborock will automatically know the floor and switch the map on screen ?

Hi Nathan, am I correct that the docking station must be moved to each floor the first time the map is made, but then after the map is made, you do not need the docking station for it to use the map?

How do I change schedule times?? I have S7 max V

I get an entirely different screen when I click on 'Manage Maps'. Mine has no toggle switch to enable and shows no maps. If I click the 'edit map' icon on the home screen a message pops up and says 'Map Saving not enabled'. I cannot find any way to enable! I'm using the most current version of the firmware (02.03.74) on android. What am I doing wrong? This is driving me crazy. Help!

Can more than one person download the app on their phone and control it?

What about if u have a step down?

what's the difference between roborock app and mi home app?

I can not locate my roborock e5 in my house , battery is dead

You realize that we can’t really see where you click right? That was too fast to follow. All I see was you click click click then the screen changes again again and again.

Frustration! I just received a Roborock S4 for Christmas with the small instruction manual. By searching on KZfaq I learned a lot and have started mapping. Yesterday I moved the docking station into the front bedroom and mapped the bedroom, bathroom and office. I was able to show the divide of the rooms and the NOGO area. Today I'm trying to map the kitchen/living room area (one level house). I moved the docking station into that area and began. I assumed the app would identify this as a second area, but it looks like it is overlaying the second map on the first map... HELP!! What am I doing wrong? Thanks..

iRobot Roomba Combo there is a video on here which is in german i guess but looks like roomba now does mopping, at lest in europe model.

I can’t understand him
