Brush better in two calm minutes. Hippobrush guides every quadrant with gentle haptics, builds a daily streak you will want to keep, and logs each session to Apple Health automatically. A two-minute brush is what dentists recommend. Hippobrush makes it the easiest part of your day. Start on your iPhone or your Apple Watch, follow the quadrant haptics, and watch the ring fill in. Then floss, rinse, and you are done. WHAT YOU GET • Calm 2-minute brushing timer with four 30-second quadrants • Floss timer with the same quadrant guidance for thorough technique • Quick rinse timer for the last step of your routine • Brush to music. Pick any song or playlist, and the track auto-pauses the moment your two minutes are up • Daily streak with a built-in freeze for slip-up days • Apple Health sync for every completed session • Morning and evening reminders that stay quiet if you already brushed • Toothbrush replacement reminder so you swap heads every three months • Stats with weekly bar chart, monthly completion, and milestone gallery • History calendar so you can see every brush you have logged • Share your streak as a polished card whenever you hit a milestone • Mirror mode flips the timer so it reads correctly in a bathroom mirror • Haptic-only mode for a silent brush that will not wake a roommate FOR FAMILIES Add profiles for everyone in your household and share via iCloud, so a partner or a kid can brush from their own iPhone or Apple Watch and you both see the same streak. HealthKit writes stay tied to the primary profile, so your dental log stays yours. FOR YOUR DENTIST Export a 30-day brushing report showing frequency, average duration, streak, and recent sessions. Bring it to your next appointment. No more guessing at the chair. ON THE APPLE WATCH Hippobrush is watch-first. Start a brush from your wrist with one tap. Six complications, including circular streak, today-progress ring, streak flame, today-progress bar, inline streak, and quick-launch, mean the timer is one face-tap away. WIDGETS AND LOCK SCREEN Home Screen widgets show your streak, today's progress, and your week. A Lock Screen widget keeps your streak visible without unlocking. A Live Activity rides along on your Dynamic Island and Lock Screen while the timer runs. HIPPOBRUSH PREMIUM Try Premium free for 3 days.

Brushlet turns brushing your teeth into a habit you actually keep. Meet Tony, your cartoon tooth. Morning and night, Tony guards the apps you choose — social, games, whatever pulls you in — and only unlocks them once you've brushed for a full two minutes. Skip it, stay locked. Brush, and you're free. WHY IT WORKS • Real accountability — using iOS Screen Time, Brushlet actually locks your chosen apps until you brush, not just another reminder you'll ignore. • A guided two-minute brush with a calm timer and a quadrant coach. • Streaks that stick — build a twice-a-day streak, with streak freezes for the odd off day. • Progress you can see — charts for brushes per day, morning and evening consistency, and your brushing rhythm. • Badges to unlock and a mascot who reacts to your day. • For kids and grown-ups alike. HOW IT WORKS 1. Pick the apps Tony guards. 2. Set your morning and evening times. 3. When it's time, your apps lock — brush two minutes to unlock. Your data stays on your iPhone. Brushlet never sees which apps you use — iOS keeps that private, even from us. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
