Neato made a line of (good) vacuum robots with Lidar.
It seems there were bought by a company called Vorwerk, and Vorwerk are shutting down the cloud infra.
This means the app, floor plans, schedules, no-go zones etc will no longer work. The robot can only be manually started by pushing the button on the device.
As an owner of one of these robots this is sad but not unexpected for anything relying on an app.
By submitting to HN, I’m hopeful someone can point me in the direction of open firmware or OSS projects that can help me restore the lost functionality.
