quip: Oral Care Companion

quip

About this app

The quip app makes it easy to track and improve your oral care routine, get a virtual checkup, and earn rewards for good habits! Any toothbrush, floss, or mouthwash can be tracked, with extra points earned for using quip.

Note: The quip app is designed for ages 13+.

Everyday care
It’s simple: Good habits are the key to better oral health. That means brushing your teeth for two minutes, twice a day, flossing and rinsing regularly, and visiting the dentist every 6 months.

To help you stay on track with your daily routines, we made an app that rewards you every time you treat your teeth right.

How it works
• Pair a quip Smart Brush to auto-track how long & well you brush
• Or manually log your habits with any brush, floss, or mouthwash
• Earn points for tracking good habits & unlocking achievements
• Redeem rewards like free products, retail gift cards, refills, & more

Brush better
Once you pair a quip Smart Brush, it will automatically log every routine (no phone needed!) To review your brush history, open the app with Bluetooth on when it’s close to your brush. Or manually track date and duration with any toothbrush.

Floss & rinse
Cleaning between your teeth at least once a day is recommended by the American Dental Association, alongside a daily refresh with anticavity mouthwash. Track both to make your dentist proud and earn points!

Points & rewards
Stack up daily points for brushing 2 minutes, twice a day (1x with any brush, 10x with a quip Smart Brush!), plus flossing and rinsing. You can also earn bonus points for achievements, like logging 100 brushings!

Redeem rewards
Turn your points into amazing rewards from quip and our growing list of partners — updated regularly! Popular rewards include free products, retail gift cards, refills, sweepstakes entries, and more.

Tips & reminders
The dashboard shows if you’re really brushing 2 minutes, twice a day (like dentists recommend!) and flossing and rinsing regularly. Check out tips to improve your habits and push notification reminders so you never miss a routine.

New! Virtual checkups
Teledentistry is a convenient option for both dental pain and preventative care. All you need is 5 minutes and a camera phone to get a detailed report from a real online dentist within 24 hours.

Ratings and reviews

UPDATE: Another app "update", another set of syncing issues. At this point, this is happening with enough frequency that I think I'm done with Quip. These syncing issues have persisted, on and off, for over 2 years. My history keeps getting deleted, when the app repairs with my brush, it has trouble syncing with it constantly. I have contacted support (who have been great, in fairness), but the steps they gave me failed this time.

set up was pretty easy, but about a week in it just signed me out. i signed back in and saw that it had completely reset my progress? by this point, i had already had a ton of problems actually logging anything, having consistent points, etc. i had just accepted that i'd have to start over, but then it did it again. so, ive kinda just given up on it. even when i did brush twice a day, sometimes it would just forget i logged it in the morning! among other weird flaws.

the app doesn't sync with my brush, keeps logging me out, and has deleted my history for today and I've already tried all of the troubleshooting the app suggested. the products are great, this review is only for the app. Edit: I just logged in again per the apps instructions and it's deleted my history back until October '23 and only has 3 things recorded. edit 2: I re-paired my brush and it seems to be working again, for now
