The app can be used to create training runs which will assist the machine to stay clear of pet messes.
The robot's patent-pending smart mapping technology is what sets it apart from the rest of the competitors. The j7+ has the ability to create a detailed map of your entire home which includes all the rooms and their contents. It can also store multiple maps, making it possible to vacuum different areas at different times if needed. This lets the j7+ cleanse more thoroughly than other robots, and is particularly effective in cleaning pet hair.
iRobot also claims that the j7+ can be used to avoid pet waste and it has certainly performed well in our tests. robotic vacuums does this using sensors that helps it recognize the size and shape of different kinds of pet waste. It then uses this information to determine whether the j7+ is to stay clear of that area. This is a major advantage over other robots.
Another distinctive feature of the J7+ is the ability to self-empty. If the j7+ senses that its dirt bin is full it will immediately return back to its base, and then empty the contents into its Clean Base Automatic Dirt disposal system. This is a lot easier than emptying the bin of dust on a robot that is competing. You'll only have to do this once a few month.
The j7+ comes with a excellent feature: it is extremely easy to maintain. The side brush is movable and is washable while dirt bags are reusable and need to be replaced every three months.

The Q5+ uses LIDAR, and other sensors to map the space when it cleans it for the first time. This helps it avoid obstacles. It's also noticeably gentle around furniture legs and other sharp edges, in contrast to many other vacuums that ram everything that gets in their way as if they're in the path of a approaching train.

The app lets you schedule cleaning sessions, adjust settings and control the robot. You can also check the status of your battery robot as well as its location. You can even set up a virtual fence to prevent it from leaving. This model isn't equipped with drop sensors like other Roborocks. This means that if it drops something, it'll trigger an error code and disable the machine until you manually reset it. It is recommended to periodically clean the drop sensor with a clean microfiber cloth or cotton bud to prevent this from occurring.
