Eufy has offline models like the G, L, and X series which come with a remote that you can do 100% of that from, no wifi needed.
Does it let you paint a square in your map layout to not mop there? Or split an incorrectly merged room into two? Or select specific rooms to do more often? I'm sure the remote is great for basic use though, but there's a lot you can't do with it
When you get to that point, you really need to just hire someone and quit fucking around with shitty wifi enabled products.
Edit: Being less obtuse, if you really need such a niche feature, at least block it from having Internet access and restrict it to your LAN as there is sincerely zero reason that cannot be labelled as laziness for needing Internet access on a home appliance.
It's a lot cheaper, at least where I live. It's also way more convenient to just put on the robot vacuum mop thing every few weeks. But you do you man
