How to Use the Roborock App for Your Robot Vacuum

Tap a step to see it in detail.

  1. Install the App and Connect Your Vacuum

    Download the Roborock app, create an account, and follow the in-app instructions to connect your robot vacuum to your home Wi-Fi network.

  2. Run a Full Clean to Build Your Home Map

    Let the robot complete one full cleaning cycle uninterrupted the first time you use it β€” it scans your home's layout and automatically generates a map you can use for all future settings.

  3. Set Up No-Go Zones

    On the map, draw "no-go zones" around pet bowls, loose cables, or other areas you want the robot to avoid entirely.

  4. Schedule Automatic Cleaning

    Set a daily or weekly schedule so cleaning starts automatically at a time that works for you, even when you are not home.

  5. Why It Is Worth Setting Up

    Once scheduling is dialed in, floors get cleaned on a routine even while you are out, cutting down significantly on the time and effort of running a vacuum yourself.

Get Your Time Back

Schedule a clean before you leave for work or head out for the day, and you can come home to floors that are already done β€” no need to set aside time for vacuuming at all.

Getting the Most Out of Smart Home Apps

Robot vacuum apps are just one piece of a broader smart home setup. Pairing a vacuum with smart plugs, cameras, or a voice assistant hub lets you manage cleaning, security, and routines from a single dashboard, and most platforms support multiple robot vacuum brands beyond Roborock as well.

Frequently Asked Questions

When should I remap my home?

If you rearrange furniture significantly or move to a new place, it is best to delete the existing map and run a fresh full clean so the robot can build an accurate new one.

Can I use mopping and vacuuming together?

Many robot vacuum models support combined suction and mopping, and you can usually choose the cleaning mode directly from the app.
