I have had the S9983 since Dec and have had to uninstall the GroomTribe app twice due to it failing to connect. After reinstalling the app, it then connects, but I am not willing to continue with this procedure. Philips, please resolve the connection issues. In reply to Philips, I read the article on both occasions and could not connect until I carried out step 5, removed/reinstalled the app.

Took ages to connect. Just bought 7000 series and was quite keen to use the app. Tried for 45 minutes to get it connected with no success. Reset the shaver, restarted my phone, tried everything I could see in various 3rd party videos (that such videos exist at all should tell you all you need to know about this). Then another hour on, I tried again and it connected straight away. It baffles me how something as commonplace as bluetooth pairing can be so flawed.

I have found the shaving app very useful. It shows you how to get a consistent shave, how to be efficient with your shaving, and keeps you updated as your shaving through a calendar history thing that gives you either a green light to show you did well, or a orange light to show you need improve your technique. Only criticism I have is the app is a little bit confusing, and messy with the layout, it could do with being simpler, and not so busy, and sort out the online store it's shocking bad.
