Neato botvacs bite the dust
1Bad news for everyone who bought all those Neato robotic vacuums that Meh sold in 2015-2017, but I just saw an article on the Verge that the company that bought Neato is backing out of their promised cloud support. It says you’ll only be able to use them in manual mode now, as the app for controlling and programming them is going offline.
Any mehtizens around who still have one of these running? I never had the need for one of these vacs when they were being sold here, but I thought it was good to see additional brands in the robot vacuum market like that.

Ours has been on my to-do list to get back up and running for a little bi (ok probably a year… Don’t judge me)
Looks like I’m going to have to get something else instead. It was always a pain trying to get the Wi-Fi to reconnect now that we have a 5 GHz network and the bot won’t connect to that, but it also prevents the bot/app from connecting to 2.4GHz at the same time.
