How do I connect a robot vacuum to an Android phone?
Answer
Put the robot vacuum into pairing mode, connect your Android phone to the 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi network the vacuum expects, then finish setup in the manufacturer’s official app.

Extra tips
What to look for: Pairing-mode lights or voice prompts on the vacuum, the official Android app’s add-device screen, and whether the phone is on 2.4 GHz Wi‑Fi.
Before you change anything: Install only the official app named in the vacuum manual. Know your Wi‑Fi password. Prefer 2.4 GHz during setup if your router splits bands. Stand near the vacuum and router while pairing.
