The brush is goshted and is not showing sparkly

The brush is goshted and is not showing sparkly the support is not responding and I have contacted them a billions of times

Latest update cannot connect to the toothbrush

The app is nice to have and is a good motivation for kids, with lots of collectibles, however the latest update broke the experience:

- it no longer connects to the toothbrush, only 5% of the time. The rest of the time I have to trigger “manual mode” which is out of sync

- it no longer lets you skip a tip interstitial before brushing, slowing down getting started

- when applying spray paint it now displays a confirm dialog; which my kid naturally presses the red X to discard the change, as other dialogs have trained them to do so

Kids love it. I hate it

It’s really fun for the kids. But I have two little ones (3&4) that need supervision to brush. So they are doing it together at the same time
But I only have one device for them to watch. They both want to open the gift at the end of brushing and choose how the character looks. I wish I could just manually update their streak and have them both earn rewards on their own profile. There doesn’t seem to be a simple way around this headache.
