We get it; you love your phone; who doesn't? But has your screen crept its way between you and your partner and even your sex life? Have you noticed more scrolling in bed, notifications pinging, one more reel and then suddenly the night's over, and intimacy? Nowhere to be seen again and again. Sound familiar? You're not alone. Research shows that the average person checks their phone 96 times a day, which in turn affects our nighttime routines and intimate moments and sadly creates a significant gap in our relationships with others.
So, if you are reading this, you know you are affected by the tech in the bedroom, and you're probably looking for answers to feel less distant and more connected to your partner. Good news, you've come to the right place. We have a step-by-step guide to help you create a screen-free bedroom and tools to help you use the right tech to bring you closer together. It won't be easy, but trust us when we say the results will be worth it in the end!
Here's your challenge: A screen-free bedroom ritual to close the gap and crank up the connection.
Step 1: Phones down
First, banish the tech that kills the mood. That means:
✖ No phones
✖ No laptops
✖ No TV in the background
This means creating clear boundaries for yourself and your partner, whether that's agreeing to switch off at certain times or even having a designated spot to put your phones away.
Step 2: Touch, talk, tease
Rebuild intimacy with old-school connection:
✔ Touch each other — slowly, curiously
✔ Talk — but skip the to-do list chats
✔ Tease — explore without rushing to the main event
No pressure. No expectations. Just presence. The kind that feels a lot better than refreshing your feed. You don't have to find ways to touch every night, but you do have to connect. This could involve having a 10-minute chat before switching the lights off or even hugging until you fall asleep. The idea is to build closeness and connection with one another rather than with your screens.
Step 3: Upgrade with pleasure tech
Here's the fun part! Swap doom-scrolling for Pulse Tech pleasure. Whether it's the Pulse Solo for penis owners, the Pulse Queen for external stimulation, or the Pulse Duo for next-level couple vibes, our toys are designed to work with your body, your pace, and your connection.
Bonus: Most Hot Octopuss toys are hands-free, meaning you can stay focused on each other, not holding devices.
3 Sex tech swaps that'll instantly level up your intimacy
1. Swap: Your phone in bed → Pulse Duo
Scrolling in bed? We've all been there. But those late-night swipes could be killing your connection. Instead, swap your phone for the Pulse Duo, the ultimate hands-free couples toy designed to bring both of you back into the moment. Our PulsePlate Technology™ delivers targeted pleasure to the penis, even when flaccid, while your partner enjoys external vibrations to the vulva and clitoris, all completely hands-free.
2. Swap: Your TV remote → A remote-controlled toy
Binge-watching again? Ditch the remote and spice up your bedroom with a remote-controlled toy like Jett or Pulse Duo. Watching your partner squirm with anticipation? It's far more entertaining than another reality show.
3. Swap: video calls → Intimacy that's felt, not just seen
Long-distance lovers? Video calls are great, but they're just the beginning. With your next FaceTime, introduce one of our bundles while you're apart and explore pleasure together. Trust us when we say that suddenly, that distance feels a lot less boring.
Your bed deserves better.
Your bedroom should be your sanctuary and a place of rest and intimacy, not just another office space. We know breaking the tech habit isn't easy, but every time you swap a scroll for a meaningful connection with a real human, you're closing the distance between you and your partner (and, let's be honest, creating way more fun).
So whether it's unplugging for 10 minutes of checking in before you sleep, teasing each other with touch, or levelling up with some Pulse-powered pleasure, the choice is yours. One small swap at a time, you can trade distractions for desire, no awkward silences, no endless reels, just real connection.
Your challenge starts tonight. Phones down. Pleasure up. You in?
