Lovense’s G-spot vibrating egg is also compatible with camming sites like Chaturbate and Cam4, where it can be programmed to respond to people’s tips with different vibration strengths and durations. Some camboys even use it anally, though this isn’t recommended due to the lack of a flared base.

15. Vibease – Panty Vibrator With Audio Erotica

Screen Shot 2020 10 19 at 12.25.12 PM

Price: $119

  • Syncs up with audio erotica
  • Vibease app control
  • 3-hour battery life

The Vibease is more of a concept than a sex toy – it’s a small panty vibrator designed to tickle the clitoris that you use through the Vibease smartphone app. The app contains 100s of erotic audiobooks, all of which are synced up with the remote control vibrator.

In other words, when the story gets hot, the toy will start vibrating.

While you can use the Vibease without the audio erotica, the whole USP of this toy revolves around the storytelling. If you like to imagine when you masturbate, I’d highly recommend giving Vibease a try. It’s 100% waterproof, USB rechargeable, and comes with a brilliant 3-hour battery life!

Vibrators You Can Control From Your Phone

It’s very common for remote control vibrators to have smartphone apps these days, especially if they’re made by one of the larger adult toy manufacturers like Lovense or Vibease.

Here are some of the most popular vibrators you can control from your phone:

Some sex toys, like those from Lovense, allow you to create new vibrations on their app, download other users’ custom vibration settings, sync the vibrator up with Spotify so it vibrates to the beat, and even set up vibrations that respond to sounds picked up by your smartphone’s mic.

Famously, Lovense and We-Vibe sex toys also allow long distance couples to control each other’s sex toys over Wi-Fi and Bluetooth, helping partners to tease one another from 1,000s of miles away (or just while they’re at work!)

How do app-controlled vibrators work?

App-controlled vibrators use Bluetooth to communicate with a purpose-built app on your phone. Here’s how the process works, step by step:

  1. Download the vibrator app onto your smartphone
  2. Switch on the vibrator
  3. Find the vibrator name with your phone’s Bluetooth
  4. The toys will sync and become connected
  5. Open the app and you can now control the vibrator with your phone

If you’re using app-controlled sex toys alone, then distance won’t be an issue. However, if you want to let your partner control your orgasms, then they need to be within Bluetooth range.

Most of the time, Bluetooth signals get lost when you move around 20-40 feet away from the vibrator. So it might be fine to use in your bedroom or across a dinner table, but don’t go much further.

What about long-distance vibrators?

Some remote control vibrators are long-distance sex toys that can be used by long-distance couples or partners that have been separated by work and business trips.

If you’ve got a toy (like the Lovense Lush 2) that works in this way, the system is very similar, but Wi-Fi comes into the equation.

  1. Your smartphone is connected to your vibrator through Bluetooth and the app (as normal)
  2. Your partner registers with the vibrator app and adds you as a “friend”
  3. He/she asks for access to control your vibrator from their location
  4. As they submit commands on their app, the signal is broadcast to your app through Wi-Fi across the internet
  5. Your phone picks up these signals and transmits them via Bluetooth
  6. The vibrator responds to your partner’s commands in almost-real-time

 

I know it can be a little tricky to follow how these things work, but I hope that explanation helped!

How Do You Use a Remote Control Bullet?

If you’ve got a bullet vibrator or panty vibrator with its own dedicated remote, then there are some basic tips you need to follow before using the device. This is especially true if you want to use the device in public for discreet play.

  • Make sure the bullet is clean, functional, and fully charged before use
  • Be sure to put the bullet in standby mode, if there is one
  • Test the volume of the vibrations before using it in public – it could be louder than expected!
  • Use water-based lube if necessary
  • Wear tight-fitting panties that won’t let the toy fall out
  • Make sure you can control your orgasmic reactions!
  • Familiarize yourself with the different vibration modes and settings
  • Be sure to wear an outfit that won’t reveal the suspicious lump in your panties!

Hopefully these tips help you out!

Conclusion – Which Toy Is Best?

So, which is the best remote control vibrator on this list? I would definitely say the Lovense Lush 2.

The Lovense Lush 2 is an egg-shaped G Spot Vibrator that is famously used by camgirls and couples due to its ability to be controlled by Chaturbate tips and the Lovense Remote smartphone app.

Whether you’re camming for coins, letting your partner pleasure you, or just riding solo on your phone, the Lovense Lush 2 is a brilliant and innovative adult toy that continues to make waves in the industry.

Whichever toy you decide is right for you, just remember to stay safe, take precautions, avoid orgasming too loudly… and have fun!
