Planetpapi Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 I kind of forgot what this Ninebot app setting (lit speed) do? I usually don't bother to open the app but yesterday I was going through the screens and didn't know what this setting should be. App version is V2...Attaching firmware info if that helps.

esaj Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Limit-speed? Pure guess, but I have a faint recollection that it was the speed-limiting option... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planetpapi Posted April 25, 2016 Author Share Posted April 25, 2016 The reason I was asking is because I rode it yesterday around 12 mph (not kph) on the soccer field and didn't felt any limitations. What are those Chinese designers saving on words? Why can't they spell it out without those cryptic acronyms. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunthor Posted April 25, 2016 Share Posted April 25, 2016 Yes Esaj, Lit is supposed to mean Limit - However, Planetpapi if you look into your speed settings you will find two options: Lit-Speed of Normal Mode Lit-Speed of Lit-Mode I think you need to use the first one if you want to set speed-limits. I never found out the meaning of the second option... so I also don't know what it is supposed to do... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The speed that the lighting effects turn on at (or move at)? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the speed-limit still needs to be somehow separately enabled, and that's just the setting for the max speed when limiting is on... But I don't know really, I don't have a Ninebot. 2 minutes ago, Planetpapi said: What are those Chinese designers saving on words? Why can't they spell it out without those cryptic acronyms. It's probably just that the programmer or whoever wrote those texts didn't have very good English... it can sometimes be very hard to try to understand the bad english (and pure marketing bullshit) in some products Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shoe73 Posted April 26, 2016 Share Posted April 26, 2016 It's not just the lack of good English, the app design is just not good. And the Gotway app is even worse! These are not one-man companies, can't they get a marketing person to design these things? It's not that hard. I'm guessing they just throw the project at an engineer and ship out whatever he comes up with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Planetpapi Posted April 26, 2016 Author Share Posted April 26, 2016 I didn't install the new Ninedroid app on my iPhone but the visual design appears to be stunning. Got to admit it.Hope they match the usability to that design. Generally very rare. Either you get eye candy or total functional utilitarian but not both. Sucks. Ironically the Ninebot wheel design itself is stunning but plagued with cutoff problems. GotWay never looked good in design department but reliability rocks. Is there a pattern here?
