Housekeeping is the most popular everyday use case among family Optimus owners. The key is building repeatable zone-based workflows so Optimus tidies efficiently without you micromanaging every task.

Core tasks Optimus handles well

Vacuuming high-traffic paths, rugs, and under furniture edges
Surface wiping in kitchen and bathrooms
Laundry transport, folding with template board, and putting away
Bed-making and pillow straightening
Pre-visitor 'guest mode' tidying of living areas

Weekly zone rotation

Instead of asking Optimus to 'clean the house,' assign zones by day. This prevents overlap, reduces battery drain, and matches how professional cleaners work.

Monday — Kitchen deep clean + floors
Tuesday — Bathrooms + hallway
Wednesday — Living room + dining area
Thursday — Bedrooms + laundry
Friday — Entryway + quick whole-home sweep
Saturday — Outdoor porch/balcony if applicable
Sunday — Rest / charging / supply restock

Firmware 3.2's guest mode is worth enabling: Optimus runs a 20-minute living-area tidy before scheduled visitors arrive. Owners report it's the single most-used housekeeping feature.
