Connecting a walking pad typically involves powering on the device and then pairing it with a dedicated mobile application via Bluetooth for full control and access to features.
Connecting Your Walking Pad: A Detailed Guide
Modern walking pads, like the WalkingPad brand itself, are designed for seamless integration with companion mobile applications. The primary method for establishing this connection is through Bluetooth, utilizing an app such as the KS Fit App. This app serves as your control center, allowing you to manage settings, track progress, and operate your walking pad effectively.
