Did a little digging, not sure if you’re someone who self hosts (or owns Homekit enabled devices) but Homebridge appears to offer plugins for Xiaomi smart vacuums this will give you more “smart” functionality without the cost of exposing it to the internet.

Shame they don’t offer that flexibility natively.

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.
