I considered a wifi toothbrush for my kids. Teaching them dental hygiene gets harder with age. At some point the youngest started ignoring brush your teeth, I had to hang out near the bathroom to make sure he brushed. I was pondering... you know it home assistant can read the site, I could just have it shit out an alarm if he hasn't brushed by x hour....
but then he gave in and started brushing
Why? Because you were dumb enough to buy, or manipulated into buying the toothbrush.
Well-deserved, IMO.
Having to log back in is just part of the Oral-B Brushing Experience™
I prefer the cheap-fucking manual brush my dentist gives me every visit experience.
Hey everybody! Get a look at Money Bags over here being able to afford to go to the dentist!
(kidding, low key jealous... please marry me so I can have benefits/health coverage)
Who said I go frequently? It's been ages. I really need a new brush, too... 😔
This is hilarious. I laughed for some time.
"Log back in to continue your OralB brushing experience"
Who thought it would be a good idea to have an online toothbrush, who decided to log customers out after a period of inactivity, and why, for all that is sane in the world, would not being logged in stop you from doing anything at all with your toothbrush!?!
I am enjoying saying "Log back in to continue your Oral B brushing experience" in my best "customer-service/salesperson ad lady" voice. Like the kind of tone that's so soullessly saccharine that it gives AI vibes
Yeah. Everything in tour homr with radio needs to be microwaved. Butlerian jihad now.
I hate capitalism
So, class war or butlerian jihad? Pick at least one.
You serious, Clark?
sudden prick sensation when brushing teeth

Although I don't have one that's smart, I have researched enough into electric toothbrushes to know that this title is exaggerating. The app is just to store your brushing information. People like tracking data about themselves as it helps with positive reinforcement. The app just allows you to see your analytics much like an app to count your steps or activity levels. It in no way "disables" your brushing experience.
I have one that is smart, and you are spot on. It was nice to use in the beginning to get an idea of what pressure is recommended and time spent on each section. But I have uninstalled and been running app free for several years now - with zero issues.
This seemed a little clickbait-y

I have an io10. It is not worth it. The 3D Tracking does not work reliable for me. The cleaning result seem to be good, but you can get that from a cheaper model too. io6 or something. The new brush heads are expensive, but good imho. Also the app only works for one person, sharing with different brushes does not work. Battery is not replaceable. Won't buy again.
