Since Apple launched its smartwatch to great fanfare last September, everyone and their mother has been eagerly anticipating its 2015 launch. (Seriously, call your mom. She’s probably waiting in line at the Apple Store right now.) Now, the adult novelty toy company OhMiBod is getting in on the smartwatch action with the OhMiBod Remote smartwatch app, which just debuted at CES 2015.

According to its press release, OhMiBod Remote is a smartwatch app that enables wearers to remotely control their partners’ “massagers”—a term for “vibrators” of course—from anywhere in the world.

Much like the OhMiBod BlueMotion remote app, which lets you control your partner’s vibrator via smartphone, OhMiBod Remote allows you to cycle through various preset speeds and vibrational patterns. The OhMiBod Remote also includes a microphone function which picks up sound and translates them into vibrations, much like its Club Vibe, which also vibrates in-sync with ambient music.

But what sets OhMiBod Remote apart from the company’s other pleasure products is its biofeedback function, which uses the Apple Watch’s heartbeat function to let you track your partner’s heartbeat as you send them good vibrations—so you can see exactly how much they’re enjoying themselves.  

“Imagine how you often feel with a partner—excited, turned on, and, at times, maybe even a little nervous,” says OhMiBod cofounder Suki Dunham. “With this app, the wearer’s heart rate not only creates the vibrations that drive his or her partner’s pleasure, it also determines the strength and intensity of those vibrations,” so as your partner’s heart rate increases, so do the vibrations.

There’s no release date for the OhMiBod Remote smartwatch app just yet, but Dunham says it’ll likely coincide with the release of the Apple Watch in early 2015. And you thought Mickey Mouse was the sexiest thing about the Apple Watch.
