Thank you Shark! i've had mine for several months and replaced my older robot vacuum because of the convenience of the self cleaning function. It's been a blessing on my life as I have 2 huskies who are notorious shedders. This has been a life saver, I keep my older robovac in the basement now and this is my go to for the main floor. Such a time saver and does a great job!

I have the shark IQ XL. Me and every other Shark IQ XL customer would like to know when "keep out zones" or "no-go zones" will be added to the Shark Clean App, and the ability to schedule various rooms on various days? I don't want to keep laying down and moving the ugly strips around, and don't want to clean the whole house with every scheduled cleaning.

I just used mine for the first time. I need to do some work on mapping and no-go zones but I have to say I am really impressed.

[izzydrycow]

which one has no go zones?? I’m not sure which one to buy!

Why can I not get my Shark AI to connect to wifi ?? In shark clean app after completing every thing it won't show me box to check agree to terms watched several videos no solution work 😢

[dustinz]

Wait a minute. Why does a room need to be illuminated for it to work? Is it just using a regular camera to send images via WiFi for remote image recognition or does it have its own internal sensors?

[Alycanj]

Tried several times to create account in app, get email and password don't match which I know they do, even tried a second email account and same damn thing, can't get support because that's in the damn

I live in a small place, can i not program it to run for less than 1 hour??

[ninik]

Hi ... question... After I charged first time and used and back to charge do I need to turn off button if I am not using until following day? Do I need to turn off the robot at anytime? Will turn it off make it loose connection to WiFi and I will need to set up again? Thank you for all the help provided

[leeannjudge]

I have the model of the 1st robot and I've been charging way to long then it should have been and it's not showing the wifi symbol it's just blinking blue and red

[BestOnThursdays]

I am a little confused, Are you saying NOT to run it at night?

Is it normal to feel very little exhaust air coming out of the vacuum while it is cleaning? It seems to be working but very little exhaust air comes out.

Can I use my shark IQ robot with out WFi

[helenalbright]

Can i get vacumn to clean without settin up on phone

Would like our Shark XL to remap. It states settings, map data, then delete map data. Looking at my settings on Shark Clean can not locate from Shark app, I see settings but no delete map?? Help. It misses my back foyer, it does only 2 stripes of cleaning. I do have 2 bot strips at 2 doorways in that area for my Jane Jetson not to enter. Thank you!

I originally had a shark robot back that was having problems so I returned it and I'm debating should I get the shark IQ robot without self empty or should I get it without empty keep in mind I have a 2000 square foot house two dogs and a cat and they're very hairy and they use my vacuum pretty much every day
