About this app

The quip app makes it easy to track and improve your oral care routine 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.

Ratings and reviews

Unfortunately, I dont have the fancy Bluetooth upgrades as displayed, but I was on a 25-day brush streak recently until the app just stopped tracking my progress last night resetting me. I tried again this morning, and now it's not recording progress or giving me my points. I can't find the quip support email or anything either. The app does have a simple UI showing potential rewards, but the tracking is definitely an issue.

The app is alright. Helps to track your routine and gives points that can be turned into rewards. However, it keeps resetting my streak days and appears to have issues with tracking the number of times you do something for the achievements. Another thing I've thought about. The fact that you aren't able to date your activity. Like, if you forget to log something you can't go back and log it.

It seems like with every update this app gets progressively less user friendly. Before the major crash that just straight up killed it for Android users, the app was fine. Since then, it no longer syncs in the background, force syncing takes anywhere from 2 to 5 attempts, and as of the most recent update it just flat out won't at all. I like the toothbrush itself well enough, but the app could really use some attention and major improvements.

What’s new
