MostXiaomi Miio devices support configuration using the Home Assistant UI,except for the Xiaomi device trackerand Xiaomi IR Remote. Please read the linked sections for those devices for more information.

It is recommend to supply your Xiaomi cloud credentials during configurationto automatically connect to your devices. You need to specify the cloud serveryou used in the Xiaomi Home App (where you initially setup the device). There are6 servers: cn, de, i2, ru, sg and us; please seethis page forthe server to use for each country.


To add a Xiaomi Mi WiFi Repeater device tracker to your installation, add the following to your configuration.yamlThe configuration.yaml file is the main configuration file for Home Assistant. It lists the integrations to be loaded and their specific configurations. In some cases, the configuration needs to be edited manually directly in the configuration.yaml file. Most integrations can be configured in the UI.[Learn more] file:


Please follow the instructions on Retrieving the Access Token to get the API token to use in the configuration.yamlThe configuration.yaml file is the main configuration file for Home Assistant. It lists the integrations to be loaded and their specific configurations. In some cases, the configuration needs to be edited manually directly in the configuration.yaml file. Most integrations can be configured in the UI.[Learn more] file.

In addition to all of the services provided by the vacuum integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more.[Learn more] (start, pause, stop, return_to_base, locate, set_fan_speed and send_command), the xiaomi_miio platform introduces specific services to access the remote control mode of the robot. These are:


* Needs to be manually enabled once the integrationIntegrations connect and integrate Home Assistant with your devices, services, and more.[Learn more] has been added.

** Only enabled if the vacuum has a mop.


Where params specify room numbers, for multiple rooms, params can be specified like [17,18]. Instructions on how to find the valid room numbers and determine what rooms they map to, read the section Retrieving room numbers.


The vacuum entity stores attribute values for when brushes, filters and sensors need to becleaned or replaced (main_brush_left, side_brush_left, filter_left andsensor_dirty_left). The values are measured in hours. Once the parts are cleanedor replaced you can then reset those values on the vacuum. Here is an example script usingvacuum.send_command to reset the hours for the main brush:


RRCC supports both rooted and non-rooted Vacuums and acts as a mostly fully featured replacement for Mi Home that works locally without the cloud. If you have installed the rooted firmware Valetudo you are able to SSH into your Vacuum and enable MQTT plus use map functions with no cloud requirement.


It will return the full mapping of room numbers to user-defined names as a list of (number,name) tuples.Alternatively, one can just test the clean_segment service with a number and see which room it cleans.


The xiaomi_miio platform allows you to control the state of your Xiaomi Philips LED Ball Lamp, Xiaomi Philips Zhirui LED Bulb E14 Candle Lamp, Xiaomi Philips Zhirui Downlight, Xiaomi Philips LED Ceiling Lamp, Xiaomi Philips Eyecare Lamp 2, Xiaomi Philips Moonlight Bedside Lamp and Philips Zhirui Desk Lamp.


If you are on a Windows or macOS device, you can use the Get MiHome devices token App to retrieve the token. Click the link, download the file that corresponds to your OS, enter your login details and it will retrieve the access token.


Configure the robot with the Mi Home app. Make sure to select the correct region, as Xiaomi uses different product names for different geographical areas. Note that the new RoboRock app is currently not supported for this method.


Using iTunes, create an unencrypted backup of your iPhone. Since macOS 10.15 there is no iTunes app. Use Finder instead - after connecting your iOS device you should see it in left menu of Finder window.


This will list devices that are connected to the same network as your computer. Let it run for a while so it has a chance to reach all devices, as it might take a minute or two for all devices to answer.


Today I want to share my smart garage for my xiaomi roborock S5 robot vacuum cleaner.

When the robot vacuum cleaner starts, the door opens automatically and when it starts to recharge the door closes. I do this by some rules that indicate the status of the robot vacuum cleaner.


Great idea!!! I have to keep it in mind. What happen if the roboroc has a full trash bin? My roomba move to the base ststion. Maybe it is a little bit uncomfortable to empty the bin from with the closet.


I have just purchased a Xiaomi S10+ robot vacuum cleaner with the hope of integrating it into Home Assistant. However, when I log in to the Xiaomi Miio integration and follow the guide, the S10 model is not on the list. If I choose a similar model, it reports an error in the setup. Where can I request the addition of the vacuum cleaner, or is it possible to integrate it manually through another method?


I am not sure what is going on for you, as far as I remember I used the auto method and used the xiaomi token extractor script from github, it also helped me determine the correct server to use when logging in, also I have already finished setting up the robot vacuum in the xiaomi home app before setting it up in the dreame integration. Hope that helps.


I have 2 units. Both stops after only 20 minutes vacuuming and disconnects from wifi. Units are under 2 years old.

Occasionally looses the map. Rapid battery discharge.Stops in the middle of vacuuming.

Replacing the battery fixes the problem. BYD batteries of poor quality. Will avoid Roidmi products in the near future when upgrading.

Problems occur after the 1yr warranty expires!

Company not taking ownership.


After 2 years and 1 month, the charging station simply stopped working. During the 2 years, there were problems with maps saving, changing the WiFi provider, also the parts of the main set that fit into the socket and the rubber on the cover wore out a lot. After 1 year started to losing charging station.


The Vacuumcleaner isn't that Bad. But there are Always Problems with loss of the map or it has to find the Station 10 Times in the row... Sometimes it jszt Sto before the Station and wont load... Wouldnt buy again


This robot can not connect via Mi Home application. I brought it to the service center and they also were not able to fix it. But refused to replase the robot with a propper device, because "Mi Home" it is "an option". Why? It was the main reason of buying this robot, because via Mi Home I can connect it to my smart home via Alice. Roidmi application does not support Alice. How can I return this robot?


The ro bot if fine build quality, but the updates and the software is TERRIBLE! robot is always can't find a charge station, after 4long cleaning (but it sees it on the map), always scratching right side the robot.. even if he knows theres is an obstacle. very disappointed. BAD BAD SOFTWARE! no UPDATES!


Since my furniture stands pretty high off the ground, I opted not to do this and instead let the 9.3cm-tall robot clean up under my bed and sofa, which are already hard-to-reach areas with your good old broom and mop.


Because the robot has a collision bumper on the front, it would bump into walls and furniture frequently while mapping out the house. After three complete cleanups, the map was saved, and the Robot Vacuum-Mop 2 navigated with fewer crashes.


The Mi Home app allows you to remotely turn on the device, send it to its charging dock, change cleaning modes, and schedule cleaning times. For more convenience, the robot supports Alexa and Google Assistant.


You can also view the generated map of your environment and the paths which the vacuum cleaner took. An interactive map of the room is shown, and I could set zones with limited movement, install virtual walls (blocking off areas), or direct the vacuum cleaner to a specific part of the room for local cleaning.


Plus, while I appreciate how the robot cleans around the whole house for me without needing to be monitored, I do not enjoy cleaning the dirt accumulated by the brushes and dust compartment.

Let us face it, robot vacuums are a godsend. They save us time and energy, and do a great job of keeping our floors clean. But sometimes, these smart devices can be a pain in the neck, especially when they suddenly come to a halt. You're left scratching your head, wondering what went wrong. The culprit behind robotic vacuum cleaners stopping can be one of various factors, ranging from software to hardware to incorrect user handling. This step-by-step guide will detail the most common reasons that vacuum robots stop and how to prevent it from happening in the future.


Robotic vacuums sometimes stop in the middle of cleaning simply due to a low battery or poor battery health. Perhaps obvious, this is the first issue to check for before moving on to the other potential problems which require more intervention to amend.


Next, your auto vacuum could be stopping because the motor powering the wheels is malfunctioning or just plain worn out. This can happen in some cheaper vacuum robots made with low-quality materials. This is a more serious problem because it likely requires a full replacement of the motor component.
