A Wi-Fi connected robot will automatically update its software if a new version is available when it's connected to your Wi-Fi network, the internet, and is on the Home Base. In some cases, it may take up to 24 hours to receive a software update. Actual installation of software once downloaded/received should take approximately 10 minutes. There is an official firmware update available for the Scooba 450. Most devices were shipped with firmware 1.2.3. Now you can update to 1.2.6 for free. Just download the updater-sw from irobot, and connect your scooba with a standard Micro-USB cable to your computer (The micro-USB jack is located behind a rubber cover under the handle). Update shows available, but never updates - did finish cleaning, returned to base but the app shows canceled and not completed - app always says charging, never charge completed. Battery icon never full. Called Roomba CS, told to keep on the charger for 16 hours. Did that, battery level never fully charged, firmware never updated.
