I got that, too. I said "okay, let's try it out", but the App wanted me to register and log in before even being able to use it. Even with refusing location tracing, I just don't feel like telling Philips when I brush my teeth, and how.
Luckily the toothbrush works perfectly without the App or any Bluetooth connection at all, wouldn't have even noticed it had Bluetooth if I hadn't looked at the packaging.
My treadmill was a bit different: While unpacking and building, I saw what was probably 8 or 9 notices claiming that the treadmill is "locked", has to be unlocked by registering it with iFit, and will not work otherwise. It was everywhere: On the packaging, as a piece of paper inside, in the manual, on the treadmill itself... New York Times had an article mentioning you just have to hold down the "iFit" button for 20 or 30 seconds, and that unlocked it permanently. Without having to pair with anything. Weird world.
