‘Sex Like Real’ App Adds Sex Toy Support to Videos from Top VR Porn Studios

Adult film aggregator gets interactive with its virtual reality selection.

Have you ever fired up your favorite virtual reality slice of adult entertainment only to think to yourself:  “Gee, wouldn’t it be swell to feel the action as well as see it?”

Well, lucky you, and everyone else who enjoys this kind of erotic fun! The folks at Sex Like Real [NSFW] (SLR) have released their very own smartphone app that can link what you’re seeing on your Oculus Rift or HTC Vive to a Fleshlight Launch: allowing you to have that extra-special level of immersion.

But that’s not the only Sex Like Real has up its sleeves..

A playground for interactive sex

It works like this: all you need to do is install the app on an Android device (an iOS version is reportedly in development), and then use Bluetooth and/or Wifi to connect it to Kiiroo’s Fleshlight Launch.

If all goes well, the phone will act as a link between SLR’s streaming content and the interactive stroker.   

The bad news is that while SLR’s videos can be watched easily with a smartphone-based VR rig, you won’t be able to do this toy-linking—unless you happen to have two phones: one to stream and one to connect to their service and one to tie in the Fleshlight Launch

Talking to The Daily Star, a spokesperson for SLR explained that the coding for toys is done by hand, but that they are aiming to automate the process in the not too distant future.  

“We expect to have a pretty big library at some point of thousands of titles encoded for interactives, he said.

No need to download

Admittedly, this match-made-in-heaven with the Fleshlight Launch needs a bit more work. But SLR offers a lot more than that.

For instance, SLR is a streaming service, acting as a one-stop-shop for content from more than  00 high-end virtual reality content providers such as BaDoinkVR [NSFW], VirtualRealPorn [NSFW], YanksVR [NSFW], VRCosplayX [NSFW], and many others.

The key here is streaming.  

As anyone who’s played around with virtual reality will attest, many sites only offer their videos as downloads. They are sometimes massive files that can take nearly an hour to pull down and install.  

But not with Sex Like Real [NSFW].

Here, users can get content without needing to put aside all that time or having massive amounts of storage space available. Either pay a one-time fee for a video or use the SLR subscription service—which runs anything from $29.99 per month to $249.99 for a year—and you’re all set to go.

Every available platform

Another bother a lot of VR porn fans have run into is: “This video looks hot but won’t run on my system.” But since SLR is web-based, its content is good to go on just about every virtual reality system out there.

This means that no matter if you have high-end gear such as the Oculus Rift or the HTC Vive, or just use your smartphone, you can still access all of SLR’s content.  

By the way, if you have any questions about how to make this happen, there is an installation information page that should answer any questions you might have. 

A step in the right direction

Clearly, SLR is a company that “gets it” in regards to virtual reality, what with their focus on streaming versus downloading, hosting content from a range of providers, being muli-platform, and—topping it all its drive to link teledildonic hardware to VR porn videos.

This is pretty refreshing: that SLR has recognized that while VR is a very exciting technology, with tons of adult entertainment potential, it still has more than a few rough patches to overcome before it achieves a comfortable level of ease of use.

Sure, they aren’t quite there yet on some things but give them a bit of time and no doubt before long they’ll be offering virtual reality that’s not just arousing but extremely easy—and deliciously interactive—to enjoy.

M. Christian

M.Christian loves nothing better than exploring the intersections of sex and technology—and speculating on the future of both. A highly regarded erotica writer he has six novels,12 collections,100+ short stories, and 25 anthologies as an editor to his name. His non-fiction regularly appears n many sites, but he’s most proud of being a regular contributor to Future of Sex.

Of his erotic fiction, Tristan Taormino said that “M.Christian is a literary stylist of the highest caliber: smart, funny, frightening, sexy—there's nothing he can't write about … and brilliantly.”

Reflecting his unique ability to sympathetically and convincingly write for a range of genders and sexual orientations, his stories have appeared in multiple editions of Best American Erotica, Best Gay Erotica, Best Lesbian Erotica, The Mammoth Books of Erotica, and others. His collection of gay erotic fiction, Dirty Words, was a finalist for the Lambda Literary Award.

While a majority of his stories have been collected into books like Dirty Words, his fondness for combining sex and science fiction is clearly evident in collections that include Rude Mechanicals, Technorotica, Better Than The Real Thing, Skin Effect Effect, Bachelor Machine, and Hard Drive: The Best Sci-Fi Erotica of M.Christian.

As a novelist, M.Christian’s versatility is on full display with and the somewhat controversial queer BDSM/horror/thrillers Finger's Breadth, and Me2.

M.Christian has worked on the industry’s production side as an Associate Publisher for Renaissance E Books and as a Publisher for Digital Parchment Services. The latter dedicated to celebrating the works of science-fiction legends such as William Rotsler, Jerome Bixby, Jody Scott, Arthur Byron Cover, Ernest Hogan, and James Van Hise.

Covering topics like BDSM safety, sexual education, senior sexuality concerns, queer and gender issues, plus reviewing a variety of sextech products, M.Christian’s non-fiction has appeared on sites like Kinkly, Tickle.Life, Sexpert, Queer Majority, Sex for Every Body, and—of course—his ongoing work for Future of Sex.

If there’s anything M.Christian enjoys more than writing, it’s teaching. A featured presenter, sometimes with his friend Ralph Greco Jr, at national sex and BDSM events, he’s lectured on kink play (with an emphasis on safety), polyamory, boosting sexual creativity, and erotica writing--for beginners or those wanting to go pro.

M.Christian is a cohost on two popular sex-education podcasts: Love’s Outer Limits with Dr. Amy Marsh and Licking Non-Vanilla with Ralph Greco, Jr.
