7 intense foreplay apps to get your juices flowing

Some people say sex and smartphones don’t mix. But hear me out.

No longer an intimacy killer, foreplays apps will turn your smartphone into your new favorite sex toy.

From controlling a vibrator, to helping you talk dirty, exploring each other’s bodies in new ways, and much more, once you download these apps on your phone, getting off will be better (and easier) than ever.

Here are the seven foreplay apps and sex game apps we recommend for turning your sex life up a notch:

1. Dirty Game - Hot Truth or Dare

Dirty Game - Hot Truth or Dare takes a classic game to a new level. We dare you to try it.

Whether you like to keep it innocent or X-rated, there is a category for every level of desire, including Classic, Romantic, Flirt, Icebreaker, Foreplay and Sex.

The truth questions, such as “share a naughty fantasy you’ve never told anyone about,” are a great way to get comfortable talking dirty and communicating with your partner(s). Dares, such as “spank the ass of the other player,” can easily help you get started.

This app is great for couples because it covers the entire sexual gamut, from touching to penetration. You can also choose group mode, perfect for parties, threesomes and beyond.

Price: Free with in-app purchase options in App Store.

2. Kindu

Do you Kindu? Kindu is like Tinder for couples that are open to trying new things. After you both create an account (don’t worry, it stays private) and pair with each other, you and your partner swipe through over 100 naughty suggestions that you can like, dislike or say maybe to. If you both say yes, it’s a match. You can even throw your own ideas into the deck.

This foreplay app is a great tool for couples that might be a little hesitant to communicate their sexual desires with each other directly.

Price: Free with in-app purchase options in App Store and Google Play.

3. OhMiBod

OhMiBod is an app for couples that connects to a variety of vibrators, providing a new way your partner can help you get in the mood. Because it works over Bluetooth and Wi-Fi, OhMiBod can also help long-distance couples stay physical, even if they are on different continents.

There are five different modes to choose from: Rhythm, Touch, Tap, Wave and Voice. Each controls the vibrator in a unique way. For example, the Tap mode lets you set a vibrational program by tapping your finger on the screen. Wave mode will increase or decrease the intensity of the vibration based on the angle of your phone.

Additionally, the app has a log to track your orgasms, if that's your goal. If you are looking for a fun challenge, why not try to break your record?

Price: Free in App Store and Google Play. (Vibrator sold separately.)

6. Desire

Desire is a fun sex games for couples app that offers endless games to play with your partner. Users can send their partner thousands of "dares" from the sex game app's database —which is uploaded weekly— or, write their own dares. Perfect for any competitive, game-loving couples!

If your partner accepts and completes your dare they receive a certain number of points. If they earn enough points, they'll be able to unlock new levels and sexy challenges, and the same goes for you!

Couples can also send each other private messages through the app and keep a diary together to record fond memories and track which dares and challenges they've enjoyed the most.

Price: Free with in-app purchase options in App Store and Google Play.

5. iKamasutra

As its name suggests, iKamasutra is a sex position app that teaches anyone who downloads it the many different positions detailed in famed ancient Indian book, The Kama Sutra.

Users will be able to learn 110 most popular Kama Sutra positions — over 230 available in in-app purchases — in nine different categories and have access to soothing sitar music to set the mood, for the very low cost of $2.99. Plus, you'll be able to save whatever positions you like best and track your mastery of The Kama Sutra over time.

And, users can even look up hot sex scenes from popular films on the sex position app to learn how to recreate them. We're not super sure what this has to do with ancient Indian sex moves, but who cares, it's hot.

Price: $2.99 with in-app purchase options in App Store (Free "lite" version also available.)

6. Pleasure Machine

Pleasure Machine is a slot machine for sexy time. Depending what your wheel lands on, the possibilities are seemingly endless. All you need to do is press the “spin” button.

The first wheel has a list of body parts from the neck all the way down to the feet. The second wheel has activities, such as “massage/stimulate” and “kiss with tongue.” The third wheel has a built-in timer, although if you are enjoying yourself, that is really more of a suggestion. There are a variety of modes to choose from, depending on what you are looking for, including Classic, Romantic, Playful, Wild and Flexible.

If you want to get creative, you can even make your own wheel of pleasure.

Price: $1.99 in App Store.

7. Honi

Honi is a sex app as much about spicing up your sex life as it is about tending to all aspects of your relationship.

While users can use the app to send each other sexy dares, share their fantasies, and learn new Kama Sutra positions, they can also use the app to take quizzes to learn more about each other, and find handy tips to help nurture their bond.

Couples can additionally swap private messages and pictures within the app, create a romantic timeline of their memories together, and send important date reminders to one another. Very helpful!

Price: Free with in-app purchase options in App Store.
