Yes!! I thought it was just me and my Australian accent.
And the commands are super limited. I wonder to what extent that's also because third-party companies aren't integrating properly? Eg, my Roborock has clearly labeled rooms, but I can't say "hey Google, start vacuuming the kitchen". Is that Google's fault, or Roborock's?
Also, I can't seem to chain commands, eg "hey Google, set the lights to red and 10% brightness". I have to say them separately. That seems like a Google thing to me.
- worthless-trash 4y agoThere was a period of 2 months when googles third party integration wouldnt let you add new items to an existing registered account. So dumb.
- imp0cat 4y agoFWIWm, Alexa and Roomba seem to work fine together, so I guess it depends on the quality of Roborock's intergration.
