We-Vibe vs Lovense: which app-controlled toys should you buy?
Hand over the remote, or the whole internet. Two app brands, two ways to play.
Reviewed by Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer) · Prices checked · How we rank
The verdict
Buy We-Vibe if you want a physical remote as well as an app, and toys made for couples in the same bed: the Nova 2 and Jive 2 are the stars. Buy Lovense if long-distance play and endless patterns are the whole point: the Lush 4 is the one everyone knows.
Our No. 1: We-Vibe Nova 2
- We-Vibe: many toys come with a remote and the app, so no phone is needed.
- Lovense: everything runs through its app, with control from anywhere and endless patterns.
- Both let a partner take over from the next room or another city.

The ranking
The best of We-Vibe and Lovense, ranked
Ranked by demand, review quality, availability, and fit. Stars are owner review averages from the store or brand site, where there are enough reviews.
No. 1 · We-Vibe
Best We-Vibe
We-Vibe Nova 2
A rabbit whose bendy arm stays on your clit while the shaft works inside. Give them the app and let them drive, from across the bed or across the country.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable
- IPX7 waterproof
Cons
- Not for wearing during intercourse
- The app is optional and half the fun
Why it ranks: Two motors, an arm that bends to stay on you and an app a partner can take over from the next pillow or the next time zone. Hundreds of owner reviews back it.
No. 2 · Lovense
Best Lovense
Lovense Lush 4
Slip it in, let the curve settle, and the Lovense Remote app does the rest, close by or from another continent. Charges fast, and the tail lights up.
Pros
- Internal G-spot buzz
- Stays put while dancing or walking
- Charges quickly between dates
Cons
- Internal wear takes getting used to
- App only, no remote
Why it ranks: A G-curve egg that stays put hands-free, up to 7,000 vibrations a minute and a partner on the app from anywhere in the world. Quick to charge, and the toy most people mean when they say Lovense.
Lovense at its best
Ships discreetly from SheVibe
No. 3 · We-Vibe
Best for couples
We-Vibe Pivot 2
A soft, stretchy ring at the base with a motor bump you turn toward your clit. Every time your hips meet, it buzzes right there. They stay harder, you come sooner.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable motor
- IPX7 waterproof
Cons
- Twenty to thirty minutes on, then off
- Lube the inside of the band first
Why it ranks: A stretchy vibrating ring with a wide motor that sits between your bodies and lands on her clit with every thrust. Control it with the buttons or hand the app over.
No. 4 · We-Vibe
Best wearable with a remote
We-Vibe Jive 2
An internal egg with an adjustable hinge to fit your body, driven by its little remote or the We-Vibe app.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable
- App control
Cons
- We-Vibe does not want this worn during intercourse. Believe them
- App is the point. If you hate phones in bed, skip it
Why it ranks: Up to four hours on a charge, a hinge you set to your shape and a remote in the box as well as the app. The easiest way to tease someone across a dinner table.
Egg plus a pocket remote
No. 5 · We-Vibe
We-Vibe Moxie+
A magnet holds it in your underwear, right on your clit. Wear it to dinner with the remote in their pocket, or let them tease you from their phone in another city.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable
Cons
- Foreplay toy, not a during-sex toy
- Thin fabric holds the magnet best
Why it ranks: A magnetic clip holds it right on the clit inside your underwear, whisper quiet, with a remote for their pocket and the app for when they're further away.
Panty vibe with a remote
No. 6 · Lovense
Best panty vibe
Lovense Ferri
A tiny, powerful magnetic panty vibrator controlled through the Lovense Remote app, with unlimited patterns and a stable connection for public play.
Pros
- Control from anywhere with a signal
- Endless custom patterns
- Tiny enough to forget it's there
Cons
- No physical remote
- Needs a phone nearby to start
Why it ranks: A tiny magnetic panty vibe that stays put while you walk, sit or dance, with about 195 minutes from an hour's charge. Control lives in the Lovense app.
Panty vibe, app-run
Ships discreetly from SheVibe
No. 7 · Lovense
Best for him
Lovense Max 2
Air pumps squeeze the sleeve in waves while a motor hums. Hand the app to a partner anywhere.
Pros
- Squeezes in waves on its own
- App control near or far
- Removable sleeve
Cons
- The air pump is audible. Not for thin walls
- Squeeze, not stroke. You still move it or it just holds on
Why it ranks: Squeezing contractions plus vibration, set from the buttons or by a partner on the app, and it can even sync with another Max 2 for long-distance play.
Ships discreetly from SheVibe
No. 8 · We-Vibe
We-Vibe Sync 2
Chorus for bodies Chorus doesn't fit. Both arms bend, so you shape it snug against you, then hand over the remote and see how long you can hold out.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable remote
- IPX7 waterproof
Cons
- Button remote, no squeeze
- Still a wearable. Some couples would rather hold a toy
Why it ranks: A bendable couples vibrator worn during sex, plus long-distance app play for the nights you're apart.
Couples vibe, near or far
No. 9 · We-Vibe
Best prostate toy
We-Vibe Vector+
Prostate-shaped vibrating plug. Perineum arm. Remote. App. Adjustable. Hands-free if the base sits. A plug with a job, not a silent weight.
Pros
- Body-safe silicone
- Rechargeable
- Waterproof
Cons
- If you wanted a simple weighted plug, this is the wrong aisle
- The arm is a specific extra. Some people hate it
Why it ranks: An adjustable massager with one motor on the prostate and one on the perineum, run by its remote or the app.
No. 10 · Lovense
Lovense Edge 2
An adjustable dual-motor prostate massager that hits the P-spot and perineum at once, with app control for solo, public or long-distance play. IPX7 waterproof.
Pros
- Adjustable angle for a custom fit
- Inside and outside at once

Cons
- App only, no remote
- Firmer than the Aneros
Why it ranks: Two motors on an adjustable neck for the prostate and perineum, IPX7 waterproof, with the Lovense app's long-distance and music-sync tricks.

Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)
Notes from Bedside CSO (Chief Sex Officer)
We-Vibe and Lovense are the two big names in toys someone else can control. Both work from a phone, across the room or across the world. The difference is in how they think about it. We-Vibe builds toys for couples first and ships many of them with a little remote, so nobody has to pull out a phone mid-moment. Lovense is app-first, with long-distance control, music sync and a library of more than 10,000 patterns.
We matched them toy for toy, then ranked the best of both on fit and owner reviews. Every toy was in stock at the price shown.

Before you buy
Buying guide
Choose We-Vibe if
You're mostly together in the same bed or out on a date, and you'd love a remote to slip into someone's pocket. The Jive 2, Moxie+ and Vector+ all come with one as well as the app, and the Nova 2 and Pivot 2 are made for sex together.
Choose Lovense if
Distance is part of your love life, or you want endless patterns and music sync. Lovense lets a partner take control from anywhere, and the Lush 4 and Ferri are built for discreet play out in the world.

Mistakes to avoid
Remote, app or both?
A physical remote is quicker in the moment: no unlocking, no notifications, and it works where your signal doesn't. An app gives a partner control from anywhere and lets you build your own rhythms. We-Vibe gives you both on most of its wearables. Lovense's Lush 4, Ferri and Edge 2 run from the app alone, so keep a phone charged and nearby.
