Rolling back on Android — what's actually possible

Two different things can be "rolled back," and they're not the same problem. The companion app (what's installed on your phone) and the mower's own body firmware (what's installed on the mower) update independently, and only one of them has a confirmed manual rollback path.
App version — confirmed rollback path
The Mammotion Android app isn't Google Play-exclusive-locked the way some apps are — older versions are mirrored on third-party APK archive sites, which is the real, working path if a specific app update (not a firmware update) is what broke something for you:
- Note your current app version from the app's About/Settings screen.
- Uninstall the current app version (back up any local data the app doesn't sync to your Mammotion account first).
- Download the previous known-good version from an APK archive — Uptodown, APKPure, and APKCombo are reported to mirror Mammotion's app (see Sources; we haven't independently confirmed each site's current listing, so search each one directly rather than following a specific deep link).
- Install the downloaded APK (you'll need "install from unknown sources" enabled).
- Disable automatic app updates in the Play Store for this app until you're ready to move forward again.
We haven't independently verified a specific old version download link on any of these three archives — check the archive's own version history for the exact build you need, and treat any APK from a third-party mirror with the caution you'd apply to sideloading anything: verify the publisher/package name matches Mammotion's official app before installing.
Mower body firmware — no confirmed manual rollback path
This is different, and important to be upfront about: our research did not find an official or reliably-documented way to manually downgrade the mower's own body firmware. It's pushed over-the-air and, unlike the RTK reference station (which does have an official manual tool), Mammotion doesn't publish a sanctioned manual flashing path for the mower body itself.
In practice, for a mower-body firmware regression, the realistic options found so far are:
- Wait — there's at least one documented case (see the multi-point turning report) of Mammotion restoring removed functionality in a later release rather than owners having to revert anything.
- Report the regression via Mammotion's own support channels and the community (roboter-forum.com, r/MammotionTechnology) to add pressure and confirm you're not alone in seeing it.
If you've found a real, working way to downgrade mower body firmware specifically, that's genuinely new information for this site — let us know.
