How to Secure Your Robot Vacuum App Account

The app account controlling your robot vacuum is worth securing like any other connected home device account.

Use a strong, unique password

Treat the manufacturer account the same as any other online account — a unique password (ideally with a password manager) prevents a breach elsewhere from exposing access to your home map and camera feed, if applicable.

Review shared access

If you have shared control with family members, periodically review who still has access, especially after a household change like a move-out or a sold device.

Factory reset before selling

Before selling or giving away a robot vacuum, remove it from your account and perform a factory reset so the next owner cannot access your stored maps or account history.

This guide is general information to help you use your gear, not professional, legal, or insurance advice. Rules vary by region — check your local regulations where relevant.
