Pretty Amazing!

It is a VERY good app. I am actually going to Middle School and I still use this app! The only reason it’s 4 stars is because basically to unlock just about EVERYTHING, you NEED to have the Sonicare toothbrush. I don’t have it, so it’s annoying, because I barely have ANY content. In my opinion they (the creators) should add AT LEAST two more things that everybody can use.

Great app if it worked

Ever since the updated the app to sync data -- a really important feature I'm glad that they added-- it's been buggy and slow. We get the same gift dropped over and over, preventing actual brushing. Progress gets lost a lot. My 5-year-old can't see all the background and items she's earned anymore. If she changed her Sparklie's color, out consumes the spray can, but when she got into to l the app again, it reverts get color. Same with clothes and backgrounds.

And worst it all, the sync is only quasi-reliable. It often doesn't sync between devices and then loses progress a lot.

If the fix the bugs, it's great for motivating kids to brush; if they don't, it can have the opposite effect.

Edited to add:
Last update broke progress tracking. It no longer matters if she brushes or not.

Won’t unlock after purchase

I purchased the toothbrush in order to unlock everything in the app, but the sparkly adventures still won’t unlock. When I click on it, it just tells me to buy the toothbrush. The toothbrush has already been paired, and I am using it with the app regularly, but I still can’t get sparkly adventures.

Great concept for children who don’t have 2 households.

It would be amazing if there were a way to set a parenting schedule of some sort. Not all children have the luxury of a single household, and unfortunately not all parents have the luxury of a healthy co-parenting relationship to facilitate this app.

This game is hiding sparkly still and lost my profile and app glitching

Ever since the last time I reviewed the game it has been hiding sparkly and will not let me brush my teeth. Please fix this issue. I have reached out to customer support but no response. I also lost my profile and won’t let me brush with my new account and still is hiding sparkly. Other than that it’s is pretty cool game and I really like it. But today, after I brushed, sparkly gave me a gift, and I opened the gift and it was some donuts, and instead where the food normally goes, it went somewhere else and it was not there where it was supposed to go. I reached out to costumer support via Facebook and no response from customer support.please resolve this issue the game is also showing a blackout screen and it is showing the paused screen
