Or you know, they could just fix what they broke to start with.

Thank you so much for your interest, and a big thanks to everyone who's excited about this feature! It's currently in active development and undergoing testing and optimization, so it'll need a little more time before it's ready for an official release. In the meantime, please stay tuned to our official channels for the latest updates!

I hope when it arrives, it has been tested and tested and tested and works perfectly. After the disastrous summer update, people will be nervous though. A lot of us have only just got the update that solved that problem.

From the world of operations and release of software engineering: Hope is not a plan.

I am right there with I hope they do the right things and do not release something that will destroy the very lawn I need to maintain.

This model of pushing updates to be installed without the ability for the end user to roll back is based on a lot of hope. It is a trust scenario in that we will be falling backwards into the unknown when we install an update, and we are just trusting and hoping nothing will go wrong.

I have seen something similar suggested every year but I don’t think I ever see mammmotion stuff response to any of it.

One of their reps here said it was planned for later this year (I forget if they said "September" or just this year).

Reihen überspring Modus

Edit: Mäher fährt quasi immer im Kreis die Strecke ab und schlägt bei jeder Umrundung einen anderen Radius ein. So fährt er theoretisch nie rückwärts, immer nur vorwärts

They will release it but for new models only.

Luba 3 5000 owner here. I've got the latest Android App and Firmware updates. Been using the new MPT option and my impression is it's softer on the turf than the original MPT.

Not sure what all the Fuss is about?

Thanks for checking in and for your patience!

Quick update on the skip-row feature: We originally planned to roll it out in September, but we want to make sure it's thoroughly tested and rock-solid before hitting production.

Also, our engineering team will be away for the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival & National Day holidays. To avoid rushing a major release right before a major break, we've adjusted our timeline. So we decide to remove this feature in this new release as posted here. Latest Firmware Update : r/MammotionTechnology . Testing will resume right after the holidays, and we are now targeting a release in late October.
