I’m looking for a smart vacuum that works offline for privacy reasons. Does one exist?

... then I think this isn't the community for you. Home automation is for, you know, automating our homes: Not because it's the only way, but because it's the EASY way.

This is just an extension based on the same reason for your TV having a remote, your car (probably) has an automatic gearbox, your smart phone does much you needed a computer to do back in the days, etc.

Convenience is king.
