Roborock is a Beijing-based maker of robot vacuums and mops that has also added wet/dry vacuums, robot lawn mowers and washer-dryers. Everything is set up and controlled in the Roborock app, and selected newer vacuums can also join Matter smart homes.
Roborock robots connect to the home network and are managed through a Roborock account and cloud. Alexa and Google Home link to that account, while selected newer vacuums can also be added to Apple Home, Google Home, Alexa and other Matter apps after a firmware update. Home Assistant's built-in integration works locally where possible but still depends on the cloud for setup, maps and routines.
That suits people who want a vacuum they can start by voice or put into an Apple Home or Home Assistant automation. It is less simple if you want a fully local or vendor-supported open API: Matter covers only some models, and we found no official Roborock developer program or Roborock-published pages for SmartThings, Hubitat, Domoticz or Control4.

Robots must be added to and online in the Roborock app, which is a prerequisite in Roborock's Alexa instructions. Home Assistant's documentation describes the vacuum as reachable on the local network (TCP 58867 and UDP 58866) and connecting outbound to Roborock's cloud over MQTT. We did not find Roborock stating a Wi-Fi band.
None of these are mentioned on the Roborock app page, App Store listing or Matter announcement we read. We could not confirm whether any model uses them.
Roborock announced a Matter firmware update on 31 March 2025 for the S8 MaxV Ultra, Saros Z70, Saros 10, Saros 10R, Qrevo Curv, Qrevo Edge and Qrevo Master, with the S8 Max Ultra and Qrevo Slim planned later. It names Apple Home, Google Home and Alexa. Apple Home pairing needs iOS or iPadOS 18.4, and automations and remote access need a home hub such as a HomePod or Apple TV. Matter features vary by model and ecosystem. The vacuums act as Matter devices; we found no bridge or controller role.
A Roborock staff reply on the company's forum says the Roborock app (not Mi Home) supports Google Home, that the service is found by searching for Robo rock, and lists start, pause, continue, return to dock and find robot. The thread concerns an older model, and other users report linking problems. Roborock's Matter announcement also lists Google Home for the newer Matter models.
Roborock's support article describes enabling the Roborock Plus skill in the Alexa app, signing in to the Roborock account and discovering the robot, which lets Alexa start and stop cleaning. An older Roborock article describes a Roborock Home or Mi Home skill for robots set up in Mi Home. The articles do not list supported models.
Available through Matter on the models listed above. Roborock describes control from the Home app, custom automations and Siri voice commands, and calls the S8 MaxV Ultra a Works With Apple Home certified product. The App Store listing for the Roborock app does not mention Siri or Matter.
We found no Roborock or SmartThings page for it, and Roborock's Matter announcement does not name SmartThings. A SmartThings community thread from 2022 describes only community workarounds and mentions no official integration. Matter may offer a route on supported models, which we could not confirm.
A built-in Roborock integration is maintained by the Home Assistant project, not by Roborock. It supports S, Q, Qrevo and Saros vacuums, with Dyad and Zeo devices cloud-only. Commands and polling are local where possible, but setup uses a Roborock account and email code, and maps and routines go through the cloud. Older models such as the S5 use the Xiaomi Miio integration instead, and some newer Q-series variants may fail to connect, though they may offer partial local control through Matter.
No official Athom app found. Two community apps exist. Roborock Cloud by Kenny Moens uses the Roborock API and lists vacuums, Dyad and Zeo devices, with each device marked as needing a Homey Bridge. An older app by Justin Harings uses the Xiaomi protocol and needs a device token from the Xiaomi app. Both list Homey Cloud, Homey Pro, Homey Pro mini and Self-Hosted Server.
A Roborock binding is in openHAB's add-on list, and it is not maintained by Roborock. Cloud mode is the default and a direct local mode is optional. Robots on the v1 protocol are fully supported, while Q7 and Q10 are partial. It authenticates with an emailed code, and map retrieval is cloud-only.
Community nodes exist. node-red-contrib-roborock-local says it is unofficial and not affiliated with Roborock, controls robots over the local network on port 58867, and contacts the cloud only once to fetch a device key. It is MIT-licensed, and we could not confirm which models it supports.

IFTTT
Unconfirmed
Roborock's 2021 blog post explains IFTTT in general terms and names only the S5 Max for room settings, but lists no Roborock applets. We did not find an IFTTT service page for Roborock, so this is unconfirmed.
Roborock's current Alexa article says the robot must be added in the Roborock app, not Mi Home, and a staff forum reply says only the Roborock app supports Google Home. An older Alexa article still covers robots set up in Mi Home. Home Assistant sends older models such as the S5 to its Xiaomi Miio integration, and the older Homey app relies on a Xiaomi token.
We found no official public developer program or API documentation from Roborock. Community integrations use the Roborock account and cloud, or a direct local connection with a key fetched from the cloud, as the Home Assistant, openHAB and Node-RED pages describe.
Checked 11 November 2026 against the brand's own pages, app store listings and each project's own page. “Not found” means we searched and found nothing, not that it is impossible. Compatibility changes often. Spot an error? Tell us and we will fix it.
