Enhanced sextech innovation for better intimacy and pleasure, featuring cutting-edge sex toys and gadgets, designed for increased satisfaction and sexual wellness.

Apple

Apple’s App Store policies have a massive ripple effect across the entire sextech industry. The company’s strict content guidelines determine what intimacy apps, sexual wellness platforms, and even dating services can and can’t do on iOS devices—which matters when you’re talking about the dominant mobile operating system in many markets. Developers of period trackers, fertility apps, dating platforms, and intimate wellness tools all have to navigate Apple’s rules, which ban explicit sexual content but allow educational material and health-focused apps. As Aylo has lobbied Apple for device-level age verification, the tech giant’s cooperation (or lack thereof) shapes how the adult industry approaches content protection. Beyond policies, Apple’s hardware capabilities matter too. Privacy features like on-device processing influence how sexual health apps handle sensitive data. The iPhone’s haptic engine has been leveraged by some intimacy app developers. And as VR and AR technologies advance—including high-resolution immersive content—Apple’s approach to these platforms will shape what’s possible in immersive adult experiences. The company doesn’t make sex toys or wellness products, but its decisions about what can exist in its ecosystem fundamentally shape what sextech companies can build and sell.
