Nike to Take Adapt App Offline on August 6th, Details Here

TapTechNews July 5th news, Nike officially confirmed that it will take the Adapt app offline on August 6th, and users can manually tie the laces of Adapt later, but cannot use the light function and the mobile phone lacing function.

TapTechNews checked the Nike China official website, and the official statement is as follows:

In 2019, Nike released the self-lacing basketball shoe AdaptBB and launched the AdaptApp. Five years later, since March 27, 2024, the AdaptApp will be taken offline and deleted in global Apple and Android app stores.

And in the English version, Nike officials said that they will retire the AdaptApp on August 6th and take it off the shelf in global Apple and Android app stores.

The NikeAdaptBB sports shoe uses a custom motor and gear system to determine the tightness of the laces automatically when the user puts on the sports shoe. Users can use the illuminated button on the side of the shoe or the NikeAdapt application to manually adjust the fit.

Why does Nike want to take the AdaptApp offline?

Nike's Adapt shoe models and self-lacing shoe technologies have achieved great success. However, we will no longer create new Adapt sports shoes.

Will my iOS or Android device delete the AdaptApp after it is taken offline?

If you have already installed the AdaptApp on your device, you can continue to use the Adapt shoe model under its guidance.

Can I continue to use my Adapt shoe model without the AdaptApp?

Yes. Without the AdaptApp, you can also manually tie the laces of Adapt, but you will not be able to use the light function and the mobile phone lacing function.

If I selected a specific color of light in the application, will my shoe model still maintain this color after the AdaptApp is taken offline?

Yes. Your shoe model will keep the last selected light combination. If you do not have the application installed, it will show the default color.
