I have the K-380 from Logitech, which I think has pretty distinctive keys, and I don't have any problem typing on it. I assume the K-480 and K-780, which are larger, would also have distinctive keys. The keys aren't as high as they would be on a desktop keyboard, but like I said, they're pretty

Unfortunately, with these apps, there is no way to know how accessible it is without having the robot vacuum that the app controls. There are a couple apps where the controls to create your account and pair the robot to your network work fine but once you are in the main screen that controls

That usually means it hasn't fully downloaded. With their audio books, they take a long time to download. Don't close that screen until it says download complete. That can be 5 to 10 minutes or more depending on how long the book is. If the manual is still waiting, it could be something else.
