Whirlpool, one of the first companies to commit to the Amazon Dash Replenishment Service [amazon.com], has integrated the service directly into its mobile Smart Kitchen Suite app [theverge.com]:

The app, which runs on iOS and Android, will let you buy regularly used items with one click directly from your mobile device. It'll also connect directly with a host of Whirlpool Smart appliances to be shown off at CES this week, including a new top-loading washer and dryer, and a new connected dishwasher. Both devices are capable of working out how many wash cycles you've done since your last order of detergent, and will prompt you via the app to buy more when you might be running low. Smart Kitchen Suite can also tell Whirlpool's smart washer and dryer to activate various modes, including quiet mode for those late night wash sessions, and "wrinkle shield" for when you're away from home but don't want your clothes crumpling in the dryer.
