I hate that everything now is a subscription service instead of buying it and do whatever you want.

    Well, if your washing machine was connected to the internet you would also need security updates. Of course the only reason you’d connect your washing machine to the internet would be in order to get said security updates in the first place.

    Great job creating a need by developing the fix for it in the first place.

      Alerts for when the washer finishes its cycle. Reminders on when to do a tub clean. More detail when certain errors or anomalies are detected. Additional wash cycles for special load/fabric types that don’t fit on the dial.I have used the internet connection on my washer for all of these things and it has been very useful.

        My magical washing machine somehow knows how to do those things without an internet connection.
