At Gengee, we are constantly refining our algorithms to ensure your INSAIT JOY Smart Shin Guards and Smart Football deliver professional-grade accuracy. These improvements are delivered directly to your devices through firmware updates.
Think of a firmware update as a "brain transplant" for your gear—it can refine sensor sensitivity, extend battery life, and unlock new tracking features. In this week’s tip, we’ll guide you through the best practices for updating your devices and explain why keeping your firmware current is essential for every data-driven athlete.
Why Firmware Updates Matter for Your Game
Many users ask: "If my device is working, why should I update?" The answer lies in the precision of sports science. Firmware updates often include:
- Sensor Calibration Refinements: Enhancing the 6-axis sensors to better distinguish between a sprint and a sharp turn.
- Sync Stability: Improving the Bluetooth handshake between your wearable and the INSAIT JOY App to prevent data loss.
- Feature Expansion: Occasionally, we unlock new features or metrics that require updated device-level logic.
Maintaining the most current firmware for your INSAIT JOY devices ensures optimal performance, access to the latest features, and compatibility improvements.
The Universal Pre-Update Checklist (Safety First)
To ensure a seamless update and protect your device, always follow the 50/50 Rule:
- Battery Power: Ensure your smartphone and your INSAIT JOY device both have at least 50% battery. A power failure during a firmware flash can "brick" the device (rendering it inoperable).
- Stay Close: Keep your phone and tracker/ball within 1 meter of each other.
- Zero Interruptions: Avoid taking calls, switching apps, or moving the equipment until the progress bar reaches 100%.
