The latest version of iRobot Scooba Update is 1.0 on Mac Informer. It is a perfect match for the General category. The app is developed by com.irobot. 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.
