How to Add a Room to Eufy Map

This guide walks you through how to add a room to Eufy map using the Eufy Clean app. You’ll learn to update floor plans, name rooms, and optimize cleaning routes for better smart home efficiency.

Key Takeaways

• Ensure your robot is mapped: Before adding rooms, your Eufy robot must complete an initial scan of your home to create a base map.
• Use the latest app version: Always update the Eufy Clean app to access the newest mapping features and bug fixes.
• Name rooms clearly: Assign descriptive names like “Master Bedroom” or “Kitchen” to make scheduling and zone cleaning easier.
• Edit maps carefully: When drawing room boundaries, zoom in for precision to avoid overlapping or missing areas.
• Save changes promptly: Always confirm and save your edits to prevent losing custom room settings.
• Re-scan if layout changes: If you move furniture or remodel, re-map your home for accurate room detection.
• Use virtual walls wisely: Combine room mapping with no-go zones to guide your robot effectively.

Introduction: Why Adding Rooms to Your Eufy Map Matters

So you’ve got your Eufy robot vacuum—maybe a RoboVac G30, G40, or one of the newer RoboVac X models—and it’s been zipping around your home, doing its best to keep things clean. But have you noticed it sometimes misses corners, cleans the same spot twice, or seems confused about where it is? That’s often because the map isn’t fully optimized.

One of the smartest features of Eufy robots is their ability to create detailed floor plans and divide them into individual rooms. This isn’t just for show—it lets you tell your robot exactly where to clean (or not clean), schedule specific rooms, and avoid messy mix-ups. But here’s the thing: the robot doesn’t automatically know what you call your “living room” or “guest bathroom.” That’s where adding a room to Eufy map comes in.

In this guide, we’ll walk you through every step of the process—from making sure your robot has a solid base map to naming rooms, adjusting boundaries, and troubleshooting common issues. Whether you’re a tech newbie or a smart home pro, you’ll walk away knowing exactly how to take full control of your Eufy’s cleaning routine.

What You’ll Need Before You Start

Before diving into the steps, let’s make sure you’re set up for success. You don’t need fancy tools—just a few basics:

• A compatible Eufy robot vacuum: Most RoboVac models with mapping capabilities (like G30, G40, X8, X10) support room division. Check your model in the app if you’re unsure.
• The Eufy Clean app installed: Download it from the App Store (iOS) or Google Play (Android). Make sure it’s updated to the latest version.
• Your robot charged and connected: Ensure it’s on its charging dock and connected to your home Wi-Fi.
• A completed initial map: Your robot must have scanned your home at least once. If it hasn’t, run a full cleaning cycle first.
• A stable internet connection: The app needs to sync with the robot, so Wi-Fi is essential.

Once you’ve checked these off, you’re ready to go.

Step 1: Open the Eufy Clean App and Access Your Map

Let’s start with the basics—getting into the right screen.

Launch the App and Log In

Open the Eufy Clean app on your phone or tablet. If you’re not already logged in, enter your credentials. Make sure you’re using the same account linked to your robot.

Select Your Robot

On the home screen, you’ll see your robot’s name (e.g., “RoboVac G30”). Tap on it to enter the device control panel.

Navigate to the Map Section

Look for the “Map” tab at the bottom of the screen. It usually has an icon that looks like a floor plan or grid. Tap it.

If you don’t see a map yet, that’s okay—your robot may still be building it. Run a full cleaning cycle (not spot clean) and let it finish. Once done, return to the app and check again.

Verify Map Completion

A complete map will show your entire floor as a connected layout with walls, furniture outlines, and open spaces. If parts are missing or the map looks fragmented, your robot may need to re-scan. We’ll cover that in the troubleshooting section.

Step 2: Edit the Map to Add Rooms

Now that you’re in the map view, it’s time to divide it into rooms. This is where the magic happens.

Enter Edit Mode

Look for an “Edit” button—usually in the top-right corner of the map screen. Tap it. You’ll see options like “Add Room,” “Merge Rooms,” or “Delete Room.”

Choose “Add Room”

Tap “Add Room”. Your screen will switch to a drawing mode. You’ll see your existing map with a pencil or line tool active.

Draw the Room Boundary

Here’s the key part:

• Zoom in using pinch gestures for better accuracy.
• Tap and drag to draw a line along the walls or boundaries of the room you want to add.
• Make sure the line connects back to itself to form a closed shape. The app will usually snap to walls, but you can adjust manually.
• Avoid overlapping with existing rooms unless you plan to merge them later.

For example, if you’re adding a “Home Office” that wasn’t recognized, trace around the desk, bookshelf, and doorway.

Name the Room

Once you’ve drawn the boundary, the app will prompt you to name the room. Tap the text field and type a clear, descriptive name like:

• “Guest Bedroom”
• “Dining Room”
• “Laundry Room”
• “Kids’ Play Area”

Avoid vague names like “Room 1” or “Area A.” The more specific, the better for scheduling and voice commands (if you use Alexa or Google Assistant).

Save the Room

After naming, tap “Save” or “Confirm”. The room will appear on your map with its new name. You’ll see it highlighted or outlined in a different color.

Step 3: Repeat for Additional Rooms

Most homes have more than one room, so you’ll likely need to repeat this process.

Go Back to Edit Mode

Tap “Edit” again and select “Add Room” for the next area.

Draw and Name Each Room

Follow the same steps: draw the boundary, name it, and save. Work room by room—kitchen, bathroom, hallway, etc.

Tip: Use Consistent Naming

Stick to a naming convention. For example:

• “Master Bathroom” vs. “Main Bath”
• “Living Room” vs. “Family Room”

This helps when setting up routines like “Clean the Living Room every Tuesday.”

Avoid Overlapping Rooms

Make sure rooms don’t overlap. If they do, the robot may get confused or skip areas. If you accidentally overlap, use the “Merge Rooms” or “Delete Room” option to fix it.

Step 4: Adjust Room Boundaries (If Needed)

Sometimes, the robot’s initial scan isn’t perfect. Maybe it missed a doorway or included a closet in the wrong room. Here’s how to fix it.

Enter Edit Mode Again

Go back to the map and tap “Edit”.

Select “Edit Room”

Choose the room you want to adjust. You’ll see its boundary highlighted.

Drag the Edges

Tap and drag the corners or edges of the room to resize it. For example:

• If the “Kitchen” includes the pantry, drag the boundary to exclude it.
• If the “Bedroom” stops short of the closet, extend the line to include it.

Save Changes

Once you’re happy with the shape, tap “Save”. The room will update on the map.

Step 5: Set Up Cleaning Preferences for Each Room

Now that your rooms are labeled, you can customize how your robot cleans them.

Schedule Room-Specific Cleaning

Go to the “Schedule” tab in the app. Tap “Add Schedule” and choose:

• The room(s) you want to clean
• The time and day
• Cleaning mode (Standard, Max, Quiet, etc.)

For example: “Clean the Kitchen every weekday at 10 AM on Max mode.”

Create No-Go Zones (Optional)

If there’s an area you don’t want the robot to enter—like a pet bed or fragile rug—use the “No-Go Zone” tool in edit mode. Draw a box over the area, and the robot will avoid it.

Assign Cleaning Modes per Room

Some rooms need more suction (like the kitchen) while others need quieter operation (like the bedroom at night). You can set this in the schedule or during manual cleaning.

Step 6: Test Your New Room Setup

Don’t just assume it works—test it!

Run a Manual Clean

Go to the map, tap on a specific room (e.g., “Guest Bathroom”), and select “Clean This Room”. Watch the robot go—does it stay within the boundaries? Does it cover the whole area?

Check for Missed Spots

After cleaning, review the map in the app. It should show a coverage path. If parts are missed, the room may be too large or the boundary inaccurate. Adjust and retest.

Verify Schedules

Wait for a scheduled clean or trigger one manually. Confirm the robot only cleans the assigned rooms.

Troubleshooting Common Issues

Even with careful setup, things can go wrong. Here’s how to fix the most common problems.

“My Robot Doesn’t Recognize the New Room”

• Cause: The map wasn’t saved properly or the robot hasn’t synced.
• Solution: Reopen the app, go to the map, and confirm the room is there. If not, re-add it. Restart the robot and app, then try again.

“The Robot Cleans Outside the Room”

• Cause: Room boundaries are too loose or overlapping.
• Solution: Edit the room and tighten the boundary. Make sure it’s a closed shape and doesn’t extend into hallways.

“Map Looks Fragmented or Incomplete”

• Cause: The robot didn’t scan the entire area during the initial run.
• Solution: Run a full cleaning cycle (not spot clean) with no obstacles. Let it finish without interruption. Once done, check the map again.

“App Crashes When Editing Map”

• Cause: Outdated app or poor connection.
• Solution: Update the Eufy Clean app. Close other apps, restart your phone, and try again on a strong Wi-Fi signal.

“Room Names Don’t Appear in Voice Commands”

• Cause: Voice assistants may not sync room names automatically.
• Solution: Re-link your Eufy account in the Alexa or Google Home app. Say, “Alexa, discover devices,” to refresh the list.

Pro Tips for Better Room Mapping

Want to get even more out of your Eufy map? Try these expert tips:

• Map at the Right Time: Run the initial scan when the house is quiet and lights are on. This helps the robot’s sensors work best.
• Keep Doors Open: During the first scan, leave all interior doors open so the robot can map the entire floor.
• Update After Renovations: If you move walls, add furniture, or change layouts, re-map your home.
• Use Multiple Floors Wisely: If you have a multi-story home, save separate maps for each floor. Switch between them in the app.
• Name Rooms for Guests: If you have visitors, name rooms clearly so they can use voice commands too (e.g., “Hey Google, clean the guest room”).

Conclusion: Take Control of Your Cleaning Routine

Adding a room to your Eufy map isn’t just a technical step—it’s a game-changer for smart home cleaning. Once your rooms are labeled and boundaries are set, your robot becomes more than just a vacuum. It becomes a personalized cleaning assistant that knows exactly where to go, when to go there, and how to do its job efficiently.

You’ve now learned how to:

• Access and edit your Eufy map
• Draw and name custom rooms
• Adjust boundaries for accuracy
• Set up room-specific schedules
