The App doesn't have to be limited to the iPhone. You can simply load the App to an iPad and resize it to the screen as you would with any other.
I wouldn't want toothepaste or water on my phone. I suppose an iPad Mini clothed in a LifeProof Nuud Case could be a solution. There could be some kind of wall mount to hold it at a desired position.
This does seem a bit extreme for a toothbrush

This is one of those things that doesn't need to exist.
You know when you're applying too much pressure because the noise changes, or because the toothbrush slows down, or on some models, the damn thing lights up.
You know when you've brushed for 2 minutes because it switches itself off.
If we're getting to the point where people need an app to remind them how to brush their teeth, we've hit an all time low.

Loads of people do, you just have a different head for each person. Why do you think they come with those different coloured rings?
Next thing you know, the toothbrush statistics will be sent to your dentist, who will call you and scold you if you are not brushing often enough.. sigh..
Just picked up a regular sonic toothbrush a few months ago and they really do take care of business! A smart toothbrush? No thanks! No need here. I'm 29, visit the dentist once a year to tell me they're great (never had need for dental work) and up until a few months ago I've only ever used a manual toothbrush. Is keeping them clean that hard?
My girlfriend and I share a base unit and just swap the heads out. It's a bit wasteful to have two base units, wouldn't you say?

You hear women using them as vibrators??? Do you listen through the wall using a drinking glass???

You are using too much toothpaste, then. It's supposed to be the size of a pea.

I take it you are sexually inexperienced.

Wears down your gums. Do you hope to have most of your teeth at 60?

Don't get out much do you
I'd really love bluetooth toilet paper with an app for it. Imagine a progress bar that tells you when you are "clean"... Useful for those "infinite wipes"...
Well not really. If the life of a toothbrush is measured in 'x' brushing cycles, then it's a wash. Two separate bases will last twice as long as a single base shared between two people.
That, and I don't think I could be bothered faffing around swapping heads.
or the Oral-B Pro-Health Precision toothbrush for $11.64
I just bought an Oral-B Pro-Health Precision toothbrush for $11.64. It runs on AA batteries. It uses the same brushes as all Oral B devices. It also has a two minute timer on it. It is as well made as other Oral B devices.
Ive used the bottom of the line Oral B rechargeable brushes for many years. I am on #3 of those. They cost $10 (on deep sale or certain discount stores) and up to $40±.
The cheap rechargeable used twice a day, along with flossing at bedtime, is all most people who see a dentist every year, need.
But that $11.64 model will work well for most people too. You can use the regular brush or the one for gums with it and, it does very fine brushing.
No need for an app. Save your money.
