Fairly good when it works, but usually doesn't. It's just a timer and a video that runs the 1 to 2 mins. Struggles to connect sometimes. Kids like it. But constant crashing, connection bugs, and constant streak resets. Been using it for months and have never completed a 14 day streak because it randomly resets even though they haven't missed a single brushing. Disappointing app. Especially for the cost of this toothbrush. Not worth it.

We just got this device and so far it's been pretty frustrating. We have stood right beside our son as he has brushed for the full 2 minutes on oscillation and it *still* won't record it. We can't figure out the parent credit system no matter what we try, so we can't even mark it as complete. We have to run his brush twice just to have it count. We also have used a timer to see if the brush only goes for a minute but the timing has been right. Something is seriously messed up with the app!

review rescinded and downgraded. Now the app lost a profile. The waiting wheel just spins, so managed to get my eldest happy about starting all over again on another tablet. However, how the app on both tablets crashes intermittently. Has there been an update? Still can't migrate or sync data (why not just use google drive or similar?) It's a nice app when it works, unfortunately, it's flakey and has become more unreliable in the last 2 weeks for an unknown reason on two different devices.
