Well, I suppose if we want better accessibility of the app we should inform Oral B of the problems with it.
I don’t see a pressing need for this device, and I can’t resist a little humor about it. First of all, Bluetooth is one word, not two, as I originally thought it was. I suppose someone could end up with a blue tooth by eating blueberry muffins or pancakes, or just blueberries. Then your toothbrush could brush that blue tooth. This would all be after we had found our thrill on Blueberry Hill. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. We all need a little good humor now and then. Seriously Bluetooth devices are handy. What we do without our Bluetooth headphones, keyboards, Braille displays and other such items. Hope all in the U. S. had a happy Thanksgiving Day.

Hi, I, too, have one of the Oral B brushes and really wanted to take advantage of the brush reporting fecilities. Unfortunately the app is virtually inaccessible. The brush has a physical button which allows you to, by default, cycle through about six brushing modes – basically by adjusting the speed of the motor and the amount of time the motor runs before it warns you to move to the next part of the mouth. I did manage to use the app to narrow this down to three options, but even that was a pig's ear and I don't relish ever having to do it again. Apps can change and I love having the best that money could buy. I'd probably buy the brush again just because it's such a good brush in all respects apart from the Bluetooth, and hopefully Oral B will sort out their accessibility down the line. But I would probably recommend a simpler brush from Oral B in most cases.

I have a bluetooth toothbrush from Oral B. I don't really use the bluetooth option, but if I remember correctly, you can use it to change the settings of your toothbrush as well as get a report on how you're brushing, such as if you need to give some teeth or area of your moth some extra attention.
