Just got this treadmill and it’s basically a 23” android tablet connected to the treadmill. After a few days, its remarkably quiet, and the motors are very powerful (much better than what i had before). I'm still confused by the softness of the running bed - does ON means soft, and OFF means its hard? the manual is unclear about this. Generally the manual has been useless. I was distressed at first that there wasn't a ledge to place my ipad on so that i can watch movies while i run/walk, but the screen tilts! when you tilt it back, there is a ledge area on top of the fan below the screen, that is a pretty good ledge to place the ipad on. Beyond this, couple of nits1. YOU CANNOT TURN THIS THING OFF! :) there is only a master switch, which essentially shuts down the entire unit. There is no standby - if you leave it on, the screen will NEVER turn off! I spent some time looking for a way to put it into standby - nope you can't - even getting into android (more below) doesn't help.2. the treadmill does not run unless you trigger manual mode on the tablet - ie. without the screen, the treadmill is useless. I would expect that i can just press the "start" and run - but nope. you have to hit the manual start on the screen, than the controls will work.3. the Fan is NOISY! not sure the cooling is worth the din it makes :)4. not all the parts assembled flush - yes, i had the free assembly by amazon, who was a nice part-timer who did these assembly after his regular job. he did it quite quickly, but there are some parts that aren't flush - it hasn't bothered me too much yet, but i may have to do some slight disassembly to fix this. Other than cosmetics, it is sturdy, and doesn't creek or move at all - it's a heavy piece of equipment.For people who are adventurous, you can run the web browser to watch youtube, but i haven't been able to do anything else. How to do this? you need to get into “privilege mode” which allows you to access the android shell and settings. Instructions to get into this mode are1. In the ifit app go into settings2. Tap on maintenance3. In the blank space below the maintenance settings, tap rapidly, around 10-20 times4. “Privileged mode” will show up as a message at the bottom of the screen5. Swipe up from the bottom edge and you will see the android taskbar, tap on the circle and you will go to home, now you can access android settingscouple of caveats, I do not know how to turn off this mode. However it seems to be ok, only difference is that the treadmill will boot to android home first, then launch the ifit app, which may be disconcerting to some SO sharing the device. Another caveat, do not try to play with the display settings - as mentioned above, the device does not turn off or go into standby, so when you finish using it, you have to physically turn it off (also says so in the manual, which is mind boggling, it's like unplugging your PC everytime, not sure why they do that - it messes up android in the long run). Thinking i am smart, i went into display power, and turned on, blank after X mins, well, it did go blank, but taping on the screen doesn't wake it up, pressing on the buttons doesn't either - NOTHING will wake it up from blanking the screen - you will have to power cycle with the switch - do don't do it :)Now on to the hard part, it’s running android 7.1.2, so I assume after going into settings and turning on install from other sources, I could sideload an APK. Nope, browser crashes every time when I try to download something from a website. There is no user accessible USB port, or so far Googling has turned up references to hdmi and usb, but no pictures or disassembly guide. If anyone has pictures or knows how to get apps on this thing. please share!
