Unfortunately, I'm losing a lot of faith with iHome products. Just recently, iHome turned off the smart home functionality for all their smart plugs making them useless. It worked well for the past 4 years but now it's simply paper weights.
The app update has made it much better and more user friendly, though I did need to reset zones.
Only downside is no Alexa/Google integration to easily say "Alexa, clean the family room." That being said, I just setup different areas on schedules or use the iHome app.

I have 3 labs and I've been wanting to get one of these but the self emptying were always so high priced.

Beware, the dust bin/water tank will eventually become useless because the water rusts the screws and other metal parts.
For the price, it's good. Will i buy again, NO even for this price. Don't want 2 things to do 1 job.
With very limited experience with Wyze, here are my 2-cents:
Wyze seems to have better suction at least at the default level (I haven't used eco and max mode for either vacs), though it's also a notch louder.
One main difference is their path AI. Wyze goes in an overlapping lines in a single direction ("horizontal") while iHome has the option has the option of doing a single pass (not overlapping lines) or double pass (horizontal for an entire room and then a second time in vertical). Wyze's overlapping line path is far superior to iHome's single pass option. But I think the cris-cross double pass option is better but also slower (esp when factoring recharging time if your house requires recharging to complete a full auto program).
Wyze vac doesn't currently have spot cleaning in iOS, though I read that Android app has that feature, so I suspect it will come in due time?
In any case, for extra $25, the auto-emptying bin is totally worth it. The new app (iOS) has worked perfectly for me. The transition is fairly seamless. I appreciate having both areas and regions (though somewhat redundant) and ability to rotate map if needed. I bought the Wyze one because I want to hide it under a cabinet in a smaller "lower level" part of my house.
LIDAR mapping features for both vacs are game changers if you only have a dumb robovac that randomly bounces around. Both will be significant upgrades and have significantly increased robovac usage in my household. All else equal, I would recommend iHome over Wyze (even though I have many Wyze cams and appreciate having one less app to deal with).
I own 2, First floor works great on hardwood. Second floor I had to increase the suction level but great again. Wouldn't choose any other vac around $200

Whatever you are referencing is not a iHome Nova product and others below look to agree with me.
