About

Molar

Features
Read full description

Molar is a simple, kid-friendly toothbrushing timer. It walks your child through fourteen short steps — ten seconds each, about two minutes total — using clear drawings of which teeth to brush next. A friendly progress bar fills as you go, and a little cup and cheer celebrate every finished brushing. Designed for young children, but tidy enough for any age. What you get • Fourteen guided brushing zones with simple drawings — no reading required • Per-zone countdown with smooth visual transitions • Pause, resume, or skip a step at any time • A small celebration at the end (because a clean mouth deserves applause) • Haptic feedback and gentle sound effects What you don't get • No accounts, no sign-ups, no email asked • No ads, ever • No tracking, no analytics, no third-party SDKs • No internet connection needed — Molar works fully offline Privacy by design: Molar collects nothing, stores nothing, sends nothing. The only thing leaving your phone is a happy kid heading off to bed with clean teeth. Made by a parent, for his daughter; and shared in case it helps yours too.

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/
