It would be very helpful to add the ability for the user to set a charge limit. Even with daily usage the yarbo is still sitting idle on the docking station with the battery at 100% SOC. Long periods of time at very high… --- ## [Pause work plan while charging](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/pause-work-plan-while-charging/1876)

Please add a pause button to the app while the rover is charging during a work plan. Since the scheduling feature does not stop multiday plans at night, I have to manually pause my long plans. If it’s on the charger, I… --- ## [Back-and-forth mowing pattern](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/back-and-forth-mowing-pattern/1561)

The main reason I purchased the Yarbo was to mow my steep 26-degree hill. Depending on the turn settings, Yarbo at the top of the hill either tears up the turf, skips significant areas of the lawn, or does a bit of both. … --- ## [Sequential days or number of days for scheduling](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/sequential-days-or-number-of-days-for-scheduling/1509)

I currently gave 4 areas set up to mow one area each day mon-thur, it would be nice to be able to schedule an area say once every 4 days instead of just days of the week or perhaps just a recurring schedule of the 4 area… --- ## [Wider lawn stripe option](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/wider-lawn-stripe-option/1281)

I have a large yard and wider stripes look better. Could you consider adding the option to set the number of passes in each direction (1 (default), 2, or 3). This might help with turning at the end of the stripe since … --- ## [U-turn that alters pathing for continuous drive](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/u-turn-that-alters-pathing-for-continuous-drive/1430)

I have seen this before, but not as an official suggestion. It would be great if, when u-turn mode is turned on for Yarbo, it enabled an alternate way of making a path through the lawn that was a ‘skip and fill’ path. … --- ## [Enable all work areas to have the same reference 0 degree angle](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/enable-all-work-areas-to-have-the-same-reference-0-degree-angle/1569)

Currently each work area appears to have it’s own 0 degree angle. So work area 1 could start at North, and work area 2 might be facing southeast. This makes it difficult to get consistent patterns across the yard. If … --- ## [Spot Mowing](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/spot-mowing/2022)

I love this machine. I think something that would make it even better would be able to do “spot mowing.” I have a robot vacuum and I can draw an area on the map that maybe someone spilled something and it will go over t… --- ## [Sleep on low battery](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/sleep-on-low-battery/2663)

Hi When Yarbo gets stuck, breaks an antenna, loses GPS or has any other issue that prevents it to go back to the charging station or to complete its program, Yarbo stays on and discharges completely to 0%.

I would like to request a pathing mode similar to “deadend” but without the step of reversing back through the entire path. This would allow users to create custom paths for narrow areas where the area tool path algorith… --- ## [Add "non-strict" turning for traveling](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/add-non-strict-turning-for-traveling/1608)

When Yarbo needs to travel to another location within an area (non-mowing travel) it doesn’t need to precisely follow the most direct path. Allow it to make more sweeping turns as long as it stays within the area boundar… --- ## [Opaque work areas](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/opaque-work-areas/1530)

Can the work areas be made see through on the app to allow for easier placement of circle or square No-Go Zones over objects in the satellite map view? --- ## [Test deadends and pathways without adding to workplan](https://forum.yarbo.com/t/test-deadends-and-pathways-without-adding-to-workplan/2077)

Issue: Dead ends and pathways can’t be tested from the mapping screen, until they are added to a workplan and that workplan is executed.

Yarbo consumes lots of energy when parked outside of chargepad. When bad weather is expected I drive Yarbo to a shed to protect it. After 24 hours 50% of battery is gone. I know I can shut down him down but then I had to…
