Disclosed herein is an assistive shoe donning and doffing device comprising a heel support, a movable toe support and an inclined surface, which is rotatable to adjust an angle of the inclined surface. The inclined surface has at least a plantarflexion foot position, a neutral foot position and a dorsiflexion foot position. The foot positions may be preset, or the inclined surface is rotated in a continuous manner to reach said foot positions. The foot positions may be controlled remotely by a remote controller, a graphical user interface or by voice, and the donning device can sense the location of the shoe on the inclined surface.
