Requires Home Assistant 2025.12 or newer and the separate dreame_vacuum integration already installed.
Dreame Scheduler is a Home Assistant integration that adds a smarter cleaning schedule for Dreame robot vacuums. It builds on top of an existing integration that already exposes the vacuum's entities to Home Assistant, and works with any Dreame model without needing to root the device. Rather than just running the vacuum on a timer, it schedules cleaning per room and per weekday, and only runs while nobody is home, using your existing presence sensors like person trackers or device trackers with a short delay before it starts. If someone arrives home while the robot is mid-clean, it returns to its dock and later resumes the rooms it had not finished once the house is empty again, and this state survives a restart of Home Assistant. The scheduler also guarantees that every room gets cleaned at least once a week by tracking what has been done since the start of the week and catching up on anything still pending on a designated day. It can be limited to run only within a set time window, and it defers cleaning if the dust bag is full or the robot has a real fault, while ignoring harmless maintenance reminders. If the robot gets physically stuck while cleaning, the scheduler blocks off that spot and lets it continue with the rest of the run instead of leaving the job half done. The integration exposes several entities and buttons in Home Assistant, such as a master enable switch, a status sensor, and buttons to run pending rooms immediately or reset the week's tracking, along with services for automations to call directly. There is an optional companion add-on that provides a visual configuration panel, a weekly report, and a beta floor plan editor for drawing no-go zones, though the base integration works fully without installing it. It requires Home Assistant version 2025.12 or newer and the existing dreame_vacuum integration, and is installed through HACS as a custom repository. The README also includes troubleshooting notes for common issues, such as rooms that get marked as blocked because the robot's lidar mistakenly mapped floor space it saw through a window.
