About this app

Going to the dentist because of a cavity is not something kids or parents want to experience. When children used a Philips Sonicare for Kids toothbrush, 98% of parents surveyed said it’s easier to get them to brush longer and better*, and 96% brushed for 2 minutes or more**, as recommended by dentists.

Introducing Sparkly to your kids can help them develop healthy habits that will last a lifetime.

Kids who use the Sonicare for Kids app with a connected Sonicare for Kids toothbrush are:
• Motivated to brush better because they enjoy Sparkly
• Receive coaching on brushing techniques
• Collect rewards for completed brushing sessions, then earn gifts to dress and feed Sparkly
• Encouraged to brush for a recommended 2 full minutes with a timer in Gentle mode
• Challenged in a rewarding way with a game called Streak Challenge to brush twice daily

• Tracking progress in the Parent dashboard
• Choosing rewards or credits to provide kids
• Keeping track of multiple kids all in one place

Nice concept but app needs bugfixes. As soon as we added a 2nd profile we noticed a lot of bugs. Switching between the two always needs a second try. The 2nd profile already had everything unlocked from the first. Also the 2nd profile had issued with the voicerecording and playing sound. Last but certainly not least its absolutely unnecessary that the app is prohibited to use on a rooted device. We had 2 old devices which had to get custom rond to still be able to use them but app is not allowed

The idea of the app is fine, but I think my son will easily get bored by it. As mentioned before, gifts are repetitive. Also, why don't the parents have full control? The app says my son brushed for 1.54m and I can't change that, although I know it was the full 2 min. Now the streak is lost, but you do need it for more gifts. I should be able to change that as well, not only the moments that the app says there was no brushing at all.

It was a great app while it was working, but after an update a couple of months ago it constantly lags and/or crashes. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling but it didn't help. I've also submitted the log for the crash more than a few times but no improvement. Shame, it's a great app for kids but if its performance is not consistent, it's unusable.
