What Xiaomi models support voice change?

- 🤖 Mi Robot Vacuum-Mop 2 Series (including 2 Lite, 2 Pro, 2 Ultra) – full support for official and custom voices.
- 🧹 Dreame Bot (models) D9, D10, L10, Z10 Pro – requires firmware for the international version of the software.
- 🏠 Viomi V3 and V2 Pro – only official packages from Mi Home are supported.

The easiest and safest method is to use the built-in voice packs in the Mi Home app, which is suitable for most modern Xiaomi, Dreame and Viomi models.
Instructions:
- Open the Mi Home app and select your vacuum cleaner.
- Go to Settings → Voice Packages (or Language Pack in English).
- In the list of available voices, choose your favorite option. There are usually 3-5 options: a standard female / male voice, a child voice, a robot, and 1-2 "secret" packages (for example, a Wall-E voice or Optimus Prime).
- Click Download and wait until the download is complete (may take up to 5 minutes).
- Reboot the vacuum cleaner through Settings → Reboot.
⚠️ Note: If your region (e.g. Russia) has a blank list of votes, try changing your Mi Home account region to China or Singapore through your profile settings.
