Charging & Battery

Q5. How do I charge my Smart Shoes?

Connect the magnetic charger to the charging port at the back of the Smart Shoes and plug it into a standard power source. Use only the original charger supplied in the box.

Q6. How do I know whether the shoes are charging?

The charging indicator shows a red light while charging and changes to blue once the battery is fully charged.

Q7. What is the battery life of smart shoes?

Battery life can range up to 10–12 days depending on usage and active features. A constant Bluetooth connection may drain the battery faster.

Yes. When the Smart Shoes remain idle, they automatically enter sleep mode. Move or shake the shoes gently to wake them up.

App & Connectivity

Smart shoes connect via Bluetooth. Download the official Impakto app and follow the in-app mapping instructions.

Q11. Do I need to allow app permissions?

Yes. Grant all requested app permissions (location, Bluetooth, background activity) so features and gestures work correctly.

Q12. What happens if I lose the QR code and need to change my phone?

QR codes are required for initial registration. If you change or lose your phone, log into the app again with your existing account credentials.

Q13. How do I use gesture features safely while driving?

Turn off Gesture Mode in the app settings for a distraction-free drive. Core functions like step tracking stay active in the background.

Care & Safety

Q14. Are smart shoes waterproof?

They can handle light rain or sweat, but are not designed for full submersion in water.

Q15. How do I clean and maintain my smart shoes?
  • Regular cleaning: wipe the exterior with a clean, dry cloth. Never submerge in water.

  • Charging temperature: charge only at normal room temperature.
