## What is Nike Adapt?

The Adapt App gives you exclusive access to the latest and greatest features of your Nike Adapt footwear.

CONTROL THE FIT FROM YOUR PHONE OR WATCH
Tighten, loosen and fine-tune the fit of each shoe using the Adapt App, or connect your Apple Watch to easily make adjustments from your wrist.

ADJUST WITH GESTURES, HANDS FREE
Change your fit when you're on the go using the Gestures feature. It's as easy as tapping your heel and doesn't require a phone, so you can stay focused on your activity.

PRESET AND CUSTOM MODES
The first time you put on your shoes, the app will create two modes; one tuned for activity and the other relaxing. You can also create personalized fits with custom modes.

ADD SIRI SHORTCUTS
Instantly adjust your shoes using only your voice with five different Siri Shortcuts.

THEMED INTERFACE
Every detail within the app matches the look and feel of the shoes you're connected to.

CUSTOMIZE THE COLORS & LIGHT EFFECTS
Light packs combine iconic Nike colors with pulsing, strobe and gradient light effects. Set how long you want your shoes to glow, or turn off the lights completely.

CHECK YOUR CHARGE
Know exactly how much power you have left, and get notified when you need to charge your shoes.

SECURELY CONNECT YOUR SHOES
The Adapt App gives you a secure connection to your Nike Adapt shoes. Once your shoes are paired, only you can control your fit.

The Adapt App allows you to remotely adjust the fit of your Nike Adapt shoes and requires data like current fit, LED color and battery level to be transmitted from the shoes to the app. For more information, go to nike.com/adapt/support.

### 5/5 — Please do not delete the app

*2024-05-23*

Hello Nike,  for those of us lucky enough to have these ADAPT shoes it would be almost scamming your customers if you’re to delete the app completely. I understand you’re no longer continuing the ADAPT line which is a shame. But I love my adapt shoes and would hate to see the app go. The APP NEEDS to stay and I’m sure you’ve seen the other reviews as well begging for the same thing. Please reconsider in keeping the app functioning. Even if you’re not to update it, at least keep it working. Thank you.

### 2/5 — APP GONE AUG 2024

*2024-02-10*

So sure five years and there’s nothing to develop with this app so you’re shutting it down and pulling it?  

Worse is you know that by doing this customers must manually work their shoes, with the exception of the shoe light patterns which just won’t be functional AT ALL. 🤬🤯😡

This isn’t at all acceptable. Are you serious?  Adapt shoes no longer to be developed/released?  Why not offer the API up for the app so other developers might be able to make their own alternatives which would include a more robust lighting pattern creator since you’re not. 

But ultimately this feels like a bait and switch and total lack of standing by your product run which as charged at a considerable premium. Said premium that is, will no longer be relevant when in August 2024 you cripple the shoes to becoming disturbingly and obscenely overpriced sneakers on par with the rest of your “basic sneakers concepts”.

If this is your game plan then don’t count having a consumer base ready to take a chance on future forward, experimental or small market specific niche products after abandoning them for the total incompetence shown from this entire product development group.   Nike has no business claiming quality and higher market value, many lower-priced shoe brands stand behind their products and respectful of their customers’ investments, Nike has become a money grap of far inferior collections of trash.

### 5/5 — PLEASE DON’T RETIRE THE APP

*2024-02-06*

Dearest Nike, please don’t retire this app on August 4th. To us ones lucky enough to own these shoes, it’s as close as we got to the novelty of owning the legendary Nike MAG from Back To The Future Part II. I understand we can still manually power lace our shoes but that’s nearly not as cool as everything the app can do. Things like auto-lace, lace by increments of 5, power-lock lace, and have an amazing set of Light Packs to display colors in 3 cool amazing sequences. I mean this is by far the coolest feature of the shoe! If the app is retired and we get a new device WE CAN NOT NOT USE ANY OF THESE FEATURES ANYMORE! Dearest Nike, please keep this app in the App Store. We’re not asking for anymore updates. Just please DON’T RETIRE THE APP! Another suggestion I have is to sell or give out a device for owners of Adapt shoes to continue to use these features. Something small so we can keep controlling the lights and power laces. Love you guys please don’t retire it or have something to keep all its features going 🙏

### 5/5 — 1 issue

*2022-11-17, version 1.29.0*

I having used my Adapts in a while so I tried to use them again and well I can’t login to the app XD. I TRY AND IT SAY “connect a shoe” I say cancel and it takes me back to the home page I login in again AND IT DOES THE SAME THING!! The worse part of this is I CANT continue with the shoes I own because it’s already connected to the app. Long story short I try to connect my shoes it won’t let me but I can’t connect my shoes because they are already connect. :D

### 1/5 — Shoes unreliable

*2022-06-30, version 1.28.0*

Here to tell Nike corporate that the warranty they normally use on shoes should not extend to this tech product. As a customer you have zero clue how long of a warranty you have on these shoes as the 2 years starts from manufacture date. Well guess what, morons, that’s not good enough for a tech product. Not only that but customer service will process your request for return, hold onto your shoes for 1.5 months then return them because the manufacture date was more than 2 years ago even though you bought them less than 2 years ago. That’s right- Nike corporate does not even record the warranty lapse date when ordering directly from Nike, leading you on an extended wild goose chase only to be informed your warranty has lapsed. I will be stealing heavily from your corporate owned stores from here on out due to this horrible experience I’ve had.

### 1/5 — App is TRASH

*2022-06-20, version 1.28.0*

The features within the app are FANTASTIC. But that’s the only good thing about it. Too often the app loses communication with the Adapt shoes and I have to delete it, reinstall it, unpair the shoes. I have three pairs of these and it’s a miserable experience to get them all to connect to the app again. I hav called Nike multiple times about this and there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight. Very disappointed in the technology and support aspect for the Adapts. Would not recommend anyone purchase the next iteration of these unless the app is fixed. Nike is better than this.

### 5/5 — • Bluetooth menu name customization

*2022-06-04, version 1.27.1*

- Greetings, I personally believe a lot of other people and I just myself would appreciate the option in the Bluetooth menu on iPhone devices to have the ability to customize the shoe name left or right rather than the default option to however the individual chooses 😉👌🏻 

- Thank you ✅

### 5/5 — Fantastic and most comfortable sneakers ever!

*2022-05-23, version 1.27.1*

By far the most comfortable sneakers I have ever worn! I have over 200 sneakers and In my life I’ve most of had over 500 pairs! The Nike adapt is number 1! They light up in almost every color!! The thing that makes these sneakers is the level of comfort and movability is on another level that I’ve never felt before!!!!!

### 5/5 — Cool when they work

*2022-01-28, version 1.24.0*

As others have noted, the shoes are cool - when they work. However, they often don’t because the app on the phone or the watch won’t connect to the shoes. So then you find yourself fiddling with force quitting the app, uninstalling the app from the watch etc. The watch app especially is troublesome. The watch app will simply say cannot connect, make sure Bluetooth is turned on etc and won’t work on the first few tries then will suddenly start working with nothing having changed on the shoes, the phone or the watch. Bluetooth is probably the main issue but until Bluetooth becomes more robust or Nike develops another wireless method then these shoes and the app are only for people who like to troubleshoot why their shoes aren’t working.

### 5/5 — App loses connection Tooooo Frequently!!!

*2021-12-15, version 1.24.0*

It took me 3 hours of reset, reconnect, reset, reconnect….it wouldn’t recognize the left shoe….terrible technology.  I am returning this $450 investment for something without an App!   Bad choice…Nike support chat was worthless too.  Now have to drive over 2 hours to step foot in the store I bought these at.
