Losing progress

One of my kid profiles keeps switching his character back after the paints it and it is driving him nuts!

App freezes when deleting a duplicate profile

Duplicate account created upon backup. Unable to delete as the app freezes after confirmation.

Bluetooth Capability has Cavities!

Horrible Bluetooth. After you connect the brush the app doesn’t recognize it after the first thirty seconds of it being paired. You then fall into purgatory of trying to connect. Pretty useless.

My opinion

Love the idea works,really well I just have one problem it needs more adventures what is the point of adding adventures if there’s only one

Fix the glitches

The app starts glitching towards the end of the majestic brusher milestone which never completes. There are other glitches where the app will freeze during brushing, or the reward won't generate after finishing brushing. This has been the case for over a year and after having deleted the profile and app and starting over. Please fix the issue and I will change my review
