Now, this is the kind of public service journalism I have aspired to my entire career. Because what can be more important than ensuring you, dear reader, are fully aware that sex toys that can be remotely controlled by smartphones actually exists and are good, real good.
Whether you’re single or in a long-distance relationship, app-controlled sex toys are where it’s at. These little babies give you all the good vibes (read: orgasms) your regular sex toys do, only you can control them hands-free or put your lover in the driver’s seat, no matter how far apart you might be.
You can even customise your own vibration patterns, so once you figure out how to hit that climax you can do it over and over again. They’re also great if you’re keen to try different sex positions that the ol’ manual wand can’t quite reach.
Ahead, we’ve found the best app and remote-controlled sex toys for women, men and couples. Let the good vibes roll! You’re welcome.
