Looks like a great thing to have indeed. I’m a bit too worried about the personal data harvesting.

You can always just not connect it to the internet. Always an option.

Don’t you need an app to operate it ?

I operate my Xiaomi Roborock S5 entirely by the buttons on the device, no internet required.

The app can allegedly give you access to more functionality, but I don't really need that.
