In this article, we’ll take you through some of the modern gadgets designed for the modern couples of today:

Long-Distance Touch Lamps

Stay connected even when you’re apart with touch lamps that light up when the other person touches theirs. LuvLink lamps have revolutionized remote connection, allowing couples to feel each other’s presence even when they are physically apart. This innovative technology allows romantic partners and loved ones to establish a non-verbal, physical connection, making it easier to bridge the emotional gap of being apart.

A popular choice for long-distance couples, these touch lamps work through a Wi-Fi connection. When one lamp is touched or turned on, its paired lamp, no matter how far away, also lights up simultaneously, serving as a reminder of their connection and love for each other.

Shared Music Playlist Apps

Having a partner with the same music taste as you is just divine! And creating a music playlist for each other is an elite love language. Some dating apps even have specific options to show your favourite artists.

Shared playlists on Spotify have become a popular culture in modern dating as a way for couples to express their shared interests and create a stronger emotional bond. Shared music playlists could range from romantic to fun and energetic. They also serve as a memory-keeper, preserving the soundtrack of a relationship and the memories associated with it.

Weighted Blanket

Whether you lovebirds are separated by distance or not, you’ll love a weighted blanket. A 20-pound option is heavy enough to make snuggles feel all the better, and its fuzzy side will offer extra warmth during those cold nights apart.

Using one of these specially engineered blankets helps your body release endorphins, a.k.a. the “feel good” hormones which deliver a sense of well-being and calmness. Weighted blankets can enable you to fall asleep faster and stay asleep for longer. And, if you’re sharing a bed with a partner, they might benefit from the perks too!

Remote Toys

We know being far from the person you love can be a huge bummer, but that doesn’t mean your sex life has to suffer. Gone are the days when spicy texts and FaceTime video calls were the closest you could get to intimacy in a long-distance relationship. Long-distance sex toys can give you the same kind of pleasure your partner can in real life. When it comes to picking the perfect long-distance sex toys, you’ve got tons of options.

From remote vibrators to butt plugs, a lot of these toys come with Bluetooth-enabled features that let your partner control them via an app from wherever they are. They can control the speed, intensity, or functions of your favourite vibe. There are even toys that sync together so when you’re using them, they coordinate the same pattern, creating a sense that you’re together and experiencing the same sensations, even from afar!
