I've mapped both floors of my house and all works perfectly for all cleaning modes.

The issue I have is that upstairs, once cleaning is completed the vac tends to look to go "home" which is only available on one map, (downstairs in this case) and ends up parked in random locations i.e. in the middle of the corridor, in the bathroom etc once it cant locate home.

This is dangerous as until collected and moved to the downstairs area to return to the dock it's a hazard. If I could set a virtual home point for it to park up in each map I could at least ensure that the vac is in a safe place until it can be picked up and returned to the dock.

Given the ability of the mapping and navigation, sounds fairly simple to me.

Thanks

Thank you for your suggestion. In fact, this idea has already been proposed by another user, who created a dedicated feature request thread -- Add start/finish location feature to floor maps for levels where the docking station is not present.

 

To keep the discussion focused, I’ll merge your post with theirs in the Feature Requests section. Please feel free to upvote and join the conversation on the original thread to help increase its visibility.
