I’m unfamiliar with Xiaomi “smart” products, I assume there is an app to control the vacuum, if it does have an app does it still work for you strictly behind your LAN network?
It would be nice if it had Bluetooth or something to control from the app. There’s no reason I’d want to run the vacuum outside a defined schedule when not at home, so the only useful feature of an app is local config.

It does have an app, but I’m not using it. It also doesn’t work, because it can’t find the vacuum on the network.
The device has 2 buttons: “turn on/off” and “find home”, those are the only two I need.
A vacuum doesn’t need internet access.

The app talks to the servers, the servers talk to the robot
It’s Xiaomi, of course the app will not work without internet access
