A clean, comfortable home starts with clean floors. And cleaning them can take a whole lot of time and energy. From now on, your intelligent vacuum cleaner can take care of this for you. Quietly yet powerfully, it does your vacuuming while you turn your attention to the more pleasant things in life.

How a smart vacuum cleaner with Home Connect works

A vacuum cleaner with the Home Connect function – like the Bosch Roxxter – can be started up and operated from any location. Your robot vacuum cleaner first carefully scans its environment. As a result, it knows how and where it needs to clean. You can rely upon its precise cleaning skills and power.

Convenient and thorough: Once it is networked with Home Connect, you can easily control your appliance using your smartphone and tablet. You can create your own cleaning plan so that your robot vacuum cleaner cleans the rooms you want in accordance with a schedule or you can activate your vacuum cleaner spontaneously when there's something for it to do. Your robot vacuum cleaner carries out its work independently and diligently – which means that you save time on household chores and never again have to pick up a vacuum cleaner.

What are you waiting for? Take a look at the possibilities that Home Connect vacuum cleaners from Bosch and other home appliance brands have to offer.

A smart vacuum cleaner who knows your home really well

Your Home Connect vacuum cleaner turns vacuuming into child's play. First, it uses the integrated laser navigation system to create a virtual map of your rooms.

You can see and use the map in the Home Connect app. The RoomSelect function allows you to select rooms for cleaning. If there are rooms or corners that you wish your willing little helper to leave in peace, you can simply set up a no-go zone.

No corner remains uncleaned

Your robot vacuum cleaner can do more than clean just flat surfaces. Thanks to its CornerClean function, it can move effortlessly into any corner – for cleanliness throughout. This is made possible through its intelligent nozzle design and shape, combining round and pointed elements. As a result, your Home Connect robot vacuum cleaner can reach tricky corners effortlessly, vacuuming right into the edges without damaging walls and furniture.

Everything in sight with the camera function

Your robot vacuum cleaner keeps an eye on everything that happens while you're away and can take action immediately. If you want to take a look at your rooms yourself, activate the camera via the Home Connect app and get your robot vacuum cleaner to do another circuit.

The camera will show you where you need your little cleaning assistant to vacuum some more. The camera can also be closed at any time manually.

Frequently asked questions

What can a smart vacuum cleaner do?

Smart vacuum cleaners are also called robot vacuums. Before cleaning rooms for the first time, they create a virtual map. Your robot vacuum cleaner will scan all of your rooms with its laser navigation system. Then, it vacuums out every single corner of your home using the map. You can use the RoomSelect function to define which rooms you want vacuuming. You can also set up no-go zones where you don't want your robot to vacuum.

Once the robot vacuum cleaner has finished cleaning, it finds its own way back to its charging station, docks itself and waits for its next job. Thanks to its compact form, you can also store the robot under a piece of furniture.

Does a smart vacuum cleaner also clean effectively in corners and under furniture?

Robot vacuum cleaners have an intelligent nozzle design and ergonomic appliance shape so that they can slip effortlessly into any corner. They vacuum close into walls and furniture and clean really carefully to avoid damaging objects. However, the cleaning result is just as thorough as in freely accessible places.

What technology is necessary to use the Home Connect app?

Home Connect only works with a smart robot vacuum cleaner that is designed for this functionality. As part of Home Connect, the robot vacuum cleaner can be controlled effortlessly at any time using your smartphone or tablet. You can even control it effortlessly when you're out and about.
