Meet Toothify - your Apple Watch’s secret mission: cleaner teeth. Let’s be real. Most brushing timers are glorified stopwatches. Toothify actually coaches you - breaking your 2 or more minutes into perfectly timed zones with gentle wrist buzzes to keep your brushing even, effective, and phone-free. No cameras. No $200 toothbrushes. No nonsense. Why Apple Watch users love it: • Tooth-by-Tooth Coaching: Custom zone pacing - get haptic cues every few seconds so no molar gets left behind. • Use Any Toothbrush: Electric, manual, bamboo stick from the eco aisle - Toothify doesn’t judge. Just strap on your Watch and go. • Hands-Free + Sink-Safe: No phone balancing acts. Just buzz-and-go with subtle wrist taps guiding your routine. • Adult UI, Zero Cartoons: Clean design, calming feedback. Because you’re not 7. (But your dentist will still be proud). • Apple Health Integration: Automatically logs your brushing streaks to Apple Health. Track trends, celebrate habits, and maybe even show off at your next check-up. • One-Time Purchase: No subscriptions. Just you, your Watch, and a slightly smug sense of oral superiority. Brushing twice a day is great. Brushing right twice a day? Even better.
