Ratings and reviews

Daughter has had it for over a year. A couple of months ago, it started having issues connecting via bluetooth, and a month ago, when trying to assist, the app kept crashing, and we could not get into her profile. We contacted customer service, which has not been helpful, figuring out why the profile would not open/load. They stated they would have a specialist reach out, still waiting. We are still having issues with the toothbrush not connecting to the app after we started using it again.

This is THE glitchiest app. It's extremely frustrating. Having to delete profiles and start over multiple times? That's fun with 3 and 4 year olds 🙄. I haven't deleted it because my kids do enjoy it, when it will work, but don't get too attached to any characters or prizes, because ours have stopped being usable multiple times. I can't recommend against this app enough! Really, does your life need another annoying thing? I have already reinstalled the app once.

Disappointed. Frequently have issues with Bluetooth connection, and the rewards are the same. Recently I discovered that although you make a profile for each child and a log-in for yourself, the profiles don't transfer to other devices. Essentially they lose all their progress, rewards, and badges if you log into another device, in my case from my cellphone to a new tablet. Of course, my 4 and 5-year-olds are excited to hatch a new egg, but then they ask me why their stuff is gone.

What's new

We are always looking to improve the app and ensure our policies are clear. As part of that effort, this version includes these enhancements:
