so as I understand Yeedi and Ecovacs are the same, same mfg, sister companies, hardware is the same, i would assume the vac firmware is different. Hopefully this wouldn’t be too hard to setup
Yes please, been looking to integrate my yeedi vac for a while now.
While I was tinkering around with it I found that you can create an ecovacs account and pair a yeedi vac to the ecovacs app. You can even use the ecovacs home assitant integration and your yeedi vac will show up. Issue is, that the app does not support to control the vac and therefore home assistant is also unable to control the vacuum.
But it shows that ecovacs and yeedi a closely related, which gives me hopes that someone will be able to create an integration.
Hi guys,
i wanted to share my configuration to integrate with the Yeedi.
With the new 2023.01 update of Home Assistant we can use the Google Assistant SDK. I normally don’t use Google but unfortunately it is the easiest way to control the vacuum robot via Home Assistant.
So I paired the yeedi vacuum in the Google Home App.
I then followed this guide to setup the Google Assistant SDK. That way I can send text commands to Google Assistant.
Next and final step was to add a vacuum template integration in Home Assistant:
Together with the Mushroom Vacuum Card it can look something like this:
The biggest flaw is defintily the missing callback. So there is currently no way to get a status of the yeedi back into Home Assistant. That would be so awesome. And as far as I know start, stop and dock are currently the only supported actions.

Keeping an eye out on this for potential future developments; as I have two Yeedi vac 2 pro and would love to get them into Home Assistant. Sadly don’t have the skillset to contribute to developing it myself.
