I’ve recently bought this new Xiaomi Vacuum robot, that is cheap (199 euro actually) but sufficiently efficient for my basic needs.
Unfortunately it’s not supported by the standard integration Xiaomi Miio because this specific robot uses different API to be controlled. Trying to add the robot to the standard integration you will get “Unsupported model ijai.vacuum.v19“.
The solution for this specific model is a custom integration from HACS store, called Xiaomi Miot For HomeAssistant (link)

First of all you need to install the Xiaomi Home App on your mobile device, from Google Store (for Android devices)
