I have a Xiaomi Robot Vacuum S12, and I’d like to know if it’s possible to integrate it with Homey.Are there any workarounds or recommended methods to control it through Homey?

Have you tried this app?
In case that doesn’t work, you can use a workaround. Install the Virtual Devices app on Homey and install the Google Home app on your phone (you don’t need a Google Home device for that). Select the type “Kettle“ for the virtual devices (that’s the only type that works with Google Home). Then, you can go to + button → Add automation, and create an automation like this:
When:
-Virtual device turned on
Then:
-Start robot vacuum
Then, you can create a Flow:
When:
-Virtual device turned on
Then:
-Turn off virtual device after 10 seconds
Google Home should now trigger the robot vacuum when the virtual device switches on. It’s still a workaround so not everything is supported, but you should be able to integrate most basic functions.
