Do you remember when you learned to brush? Neither do we! It turns out, most people don’t brush properly. If you’ve ever wondered how well you’re brushing or if you’re reaching every spot, the Philips Sonicare app is here to help. The app brings more clarity, more confidence and more personal insights into your routine. When you connect your Sonicare toothbrush, you’ll unlock personalized coaching designed to help you strengthen your habits and brighten your smile. Please note you must have a connected toothbrush to use the app. By connecting to the app, you’ll also receive the latest updates to your brushing experience. Our most advanced toothbrush – the Next-Generation Sonicare DiamondClean 9900 Prestige – harmonizes with the app, creating an experience that’s smart and supportive, including: - Real-time guided brushing that helps you feel confident every session - SenseIQ technology that senses and adapts to you - Auto-sync so your brushing data stays updated, even when your phone’s not around Your Sonicare app experience will vary depending on which toothbrush you own and where you live: PREMIUM - Next-Generation DiamondClean 9900 Prestige, Next-Generation DiamondClean 9500, Next-Generation DiamondClean 9000, Next-Generation DiamondClean 8700, Next-Generation DiamondClean 8500, Next-Generation DiamondClean 8000 and DiamondClean Prestige 9900 — SenseIQ, mouth map, personalized guidance and tips. ADVANCED - DiamondClean Smart and FlexCare Platinum Connected – mouth map with position guidance and missed area notifications. ESSENTIAL - Sonicare 6500, Sonicare 7100, DiamondClean 9000 and ExpertClean - SmarTimer and brushing guides. In the Sonicare app: Brushing check-in You will receive an assessment of your technique after the first time you brush your teeth. This will provide a starting point to track improvements to your oral health routine over time. Real-time brushing guidance The Sonicare app checks your habits, like if you’re reaching all areas of your mouth, how long you brush or how much pressure you’re using, and coaches you with tailored advice. This coaching helps to ensure consistent, complete coverage, every time you brush. Dental Diary The Dental Diary helps you track all your oral health habits in one place – brushing, flossing, tongue cleaning, and mouth rinsing – so you can spot trends and build a consistent routine. Brushing Streak The Brushing Streak feature helps motivate you to brush at least twice daily – morning and night – as recommended by dentists to prevent plaque buildup. Dashboard The Dashboard syncs with your Sonicare toothbrush to collect and display your brushing habits. You receive an easy-to-read report with insights to help support and improve your oral health. Brush head monitoring Automatically know when it’s time to replace your brush head. Bristles wear out and start losing effectiveness after about three months, so having a fresh replacement ensures the best cleaning. Automatic brush head reordering service Always have a fresh brush head when you need one. As the Sonicare app checks your brush head’s usage, the reordering service reminds you when you need a replacement, and can automatically place an order so it arrives just in time. The brush head smart reordering service is available in the United States, United Kingdom, Germany, France, Spain, Italy and Japan. Connect with Apple Health When you link the Sonicare app to the Apple Health app, you can track your brushing habits along with the rest of your health data.

Your Training. Smarter. AdaptTrain makes your training adaptive. Not every day is the same. Your recovery changes, your training load accumulates, and your body does not respond to training in exactly the same way every day. AdaptTrain takes these factors into account and helps you adjust your training to your current state. Train Based on Your Current State See at a glance how ready you are for your next workout. AdaptTrain combines different factors to give you an overall picture of your current recovery — including physical training load, sleep, and cardiovascular data. This helps you plan your training more consciously instead of following the same routine every day. Your Training Adjusts Automatically AdaptTrain creates workouts based on your previous training data, current training load, and training goals. The system takes into account factors including: • Training volume • Muscle load • RPE and training intensity • Previous workouts • Recovery • Available equipment • Training goals You can swap suggested exercises at any time and adapt your workout to your individual circumstances. Understand Your Training Load Keep track of your muscle groups and see which areas have already been trained and which may be ready for training again. Over time, this helps you better understand how your body responds to your training. Track Your Progress Log your sets, repetitions, weights, and RPE directly during your workout. AdaptTrain analyzes your training history and makes your progress visible — so you don't just train, you understand how your training is developing. Connect Your Health Data If you use Apple Health, AdaptTrain can read selected data such as: • Resting heart rate • Heart rate variability (HRV) • Sleep and incorporate it into your recovery assessment. Your health data is processed locally on your device. Built for Long-Term Progress AdaptTrain isn't designed to give you the exact same workout every day. The idea is a system that learns from your training over time and helps you better align your training load, recovery, and training planning. Train. Adapt. Progress. AdaptTrain — Your Training. Smarter.
