Designed for: 1. Solo Play 2. Discreet Public Play 3. Long Distance Play Use one smartphone for close range control, syncing vibrations to music, and sound activated vibrations (uses your phone's microphone). Range for close range control is up to 30 feet when you have a direct line of sight. 360° range is between 5-10 feet, based on your surroundings. Use two smartphones to drastically increase your partner's control range. This is perfect for those wanting discreet public play within larger spaces. Simply connect with your partner's phone within the app and give up control. The person with a toy should have their smartphone within 3-5 feet of them at all times. The app can run in the background, so it can be in your purse or pocket while your partner has complete control via their smartphone. This feature is also great for long distance couples. You also have the ability to create your own vibration patterns. Our fun tap and slide control interface makes it easy to make unique patterns. Our powerful vibration motor allows a large range of possibilities. After creating a pattern, you can share it (anonymously) with the world. Take a look at the vibration patterns already uploaded and download the ones you like! Other Settings (must select for each partner): Give full control to some (don't need to continually allow them to gain control) Vibration notifications during text messages Notifications when you partner logs into the app Auto-play a pattern when it's sent to you Not seeing a feature you would like?
