About

Akroscan

Read full description

AkroScan uses iPhone's Truedepth sensor to get 3D foot scans to get custom insoles from Akrolimb's website. No account or appointment needed. Within a few minutes you should be able to take your scans and place the order. From that point your scans become custom-made insoles, crafted to the exact shape of your feet and delivered to your door. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap start scanning and a short tutorial will take you through the process 2. Place your phone flat on the floor with the screen up 3 Hold each foot 15-20 cm above the camera within the outline guide and the capture should be taken automatically 4. Check both scanned models to verify capture was done correctly otherwise you can retake capture if needed. 5. Enter your email and click on send which will either place your order (if you have already made payment) or redirect you to order your insoles at akrolimb.com GOOD TO KNOW • Requires an iPhone with Face ID (the TrueDepth camera) • Your scan is a surface model of your foot and never used for identification • Custom insoles are made and shipped to you. The ordering is completed on akrolimb.com
