Yes, and I believe Sandy Tompkins on this list has had both Rumba and Neato 
products, and she seemed to much prefer the Neato.

The neato currently has some app accessibility issues with VoiceOver, but I’m 
still using mine successfully, although not as efficiently as I could with 
better accessibility.

I direct message NeatoRobotics via Twitter on Wednesday asking them to make 
their iPhone app fully VoiceOver enabled for blind users. I received a response 
direct message from them several hours later thanking me for bringing this to 
their attention, and that they had forwarded the request on to engineering. Of 
course, there’s no guarantee that anything will be done. I’ve made the same 
suggestion through their customer support twice previously without evidence of 
change in their 2 recent app upgrades. But, as Mark Taylor pointed out to me, 
companies seem to have different and possibly more impactful representatives on 
their social media streams. I encourage others interested in this to either 
direct message NeatoRobotics, or another avenue of their choice. It’s clearly 
in their interest to address these changes.

Thanks, Keith

Hi Don,

Make sure you also check the Neato Connected robotic vacuum, it’s a bit cheaper 
and gets much better reviews across the board. It’s been discussed here quite a 
bit. I believe the app is accessible with some issues, but it sounds from what 
Shaf said that this is also the case for the Roomba.

Regards,
Sieghard

Well the subject says it all.



A friend is considering getting one and I wanted to be sure the vacuum and the 
app were a good combination.



Thanks in advance.



Don
