It could do this for 77 minutes in one cleaning, and then the battery died.

Unlike some of the other robovacs we've evaluated, the i3+ EVO comes with a self vacuum-emptying bin that dumps debris into an external dirt compartment on the base of its charging when it's full. The i3+ EVO can be prevented from overfilling with a self-emptying bin. However it still needs to be manually emptied at the end of each cleaning session.

The app is simple to use, but it doesn't support Apple HomeKit which is slated to be added by 2025.
