Anal August could also be over, however that doesnโt imply the love for this type of play has to finish! In any case, with out anal toys I won’t be right here, with my weblog beginning out primarily reviewing butt plugs, and my Newbieโs Information nonetheless being some of the widespread posts at Princess Previews. Plus, at presentโs evaluation isnโt on any previous butt plug, however a toy Iโve been after ever because it was initially introduced again in 2017. We-Vibe are the makers of lots of my favorite intercourse toys, from the Tango X and Contact X, to the Nova 2 and Soften, and their newbieโs pleasant and app-compatible Ditto was one other success that I simply by no means obtained spherical to making an attempt. So when Lovehoney Group (who just lately acquired We-Vibe) reached out to let me know theyโd be releasing an upgraded model, the Ditto+, this August, I couldnโt have stated sure to a evaluation quicker.
Ditto OG vs Ditto+
Since I donโt have the unique Ditto, I gainedโt be evaluating the 2 on this evaluation. However in keeping with We-Vibe, the Ditto+โs improve is primarily associated to the included distant. It appears the favored model has lastly left behind their basic white plastic distant for a discreet black silicone model that appears much like the We-Vibe Contact Xโs management system. Nonetheless, aside from its look, I canโt discover something that makes this extra โsuperiorโ distant actually any completely different from the previous one. As for the toy itself, it appears to be just about equivalent, besides for 2 new colors and a rearrangement of its in-built ten vibration modes, with the 4 regular speeds now being collectively slightly than separated by patterns, a transfer that Iโm certain would have infuriated me if I ever reviewed the OG Ditto. However, except you discovered this a difficulty, it appears the Ditto+ is basically only a minor refresh of the unique design, and never one thing you might want to rebuy if you have already got one.
Product Description
The We-Vibe Ditto+ is a vibrating butt plug that’s supposed forย rookies to anal play, and a product I really feel there may be not sufficient of within the luxurious toy market. As is acceptable for its viewers, it’s pretty slim, with a most diameter of simply 1.26โณ / 3.2cm and a size of three.5โณ / 8.8cm, and its tapered physique additionally works to make insertion far simpler than conventional butt plug designs. Additionally uncommon is that one aspect is completely flat, one other change that may create a extra snug expertise for these simply getting began on their anal journey. Youโll then discover a skinny versatile neck on the finish of the insertable portion, and after it is a large T-bar fashion base, which is my private favorite with regard to each consolation and safety. My explicit Ditto+ is in We-Vibeโs pink, which makes use of a shimmery pigment for a contact of sparkle, and whereas the toy additionally is available in black I’m uncertain if that is additionally shimmery. Though I really like this, it appears to intensify a variety of manufacturing flaws throughout the Ditto+โs physique, much like what I skilled with my We-Vibe Nova 2. These small marks, whereas they gainedโt have an effect on use, are fairly off-putting and never applicable for a luxurious toy in my view. Plus, to make issues worse, there’s a outstanding seam that runs across the toy and authorized writing, such because the mannequin quantity, on the inside of the toyโs base, which isn’t perfect for preserving issues clear. On the skin of the Ditto+โs base, youโll then discover the toyโs single button (it can be managed by way of the distant and app), the metallic plates for the magnetic charger to connect with, and the We-Vibe emblem. Lastly, the toy can also be totally waterproof, made completely of body-safe silicone, and USB rechargeable.
Packaging
Since my We-Vibe Ditto+ was despatched on to me by the producer, I gainedโt go into the transport particulars. The field for the toy itself is then what Iโve grown to anticipate from the premium intercourse toy model, arriving in a luxurious field that includes photos of the product and loads of info on what it will probably do. Utilizing We-Vibeโs enjoyable and vibrant branding, giving it an approachable really feel, the highest of the field can then be slid off to disclose the product resting safely inside. On the within of the field youโll discover some tips about easy methods to get began, and alongside the Ditto+ is its distant, fast begin information (though not like different We-Vibe merchandise, it doesnโt appear to have a full PDF guide on-line), security info booklet, branded charging wire, and a cotton storage pouch, which is nicer than We-Vibeโs older silk luggage. Lastly, as with all We-Vibe merchandise, the Ditto+ comes with a two yr guarantee.
Charging
Charging the We-Vibe Ditto+ is simple because itโs USB rechargeable. Merely plug one finish of the wire right into a USB port after which place the opposite finish over the metallic plates on the toy, so the 2 can join magnetically. This magnet is sort of sturdy, so they need to keep put, however Iโd nonetheless suggest double checking as soon as the toy is positioned down. As soon as on cost, a light-weight will flash on the toy, with this turning into stable upon completion. As with the unique Ditto, this could then take 90 minutes to present you an estimated two hours of play time. Regarding the distant, this makes use of a CR2032 battery, which is included. To entry it, you possibly can merely pull the plastic finish of the distant off, after which push it again on once more.
Controls
While the toy does have a single button on its base that works fairly properly, the We-Vibe Ditto+ is meant to be used alongside both its distant or app. And contemplating the place the toy will probably be positioned throughout use, this makes good sense. Youโll nonetheless want to show it on initially utilizing the button, though because it has no stand-by mode you might want to instantly flip the vibrations again off throughout insertion. A fast overview of this button is that you just have to press it to show the toy on, proceed urgent to cycle by way of the ten modes, 4 of that are regular speeds and 6 of that are patterns, after which maintain down the button to show it again off. The one draw back to utilizing simply this, aside from the awkward location, is that while the distant and app have the flexibility to extend the depth of those modes, the single-button doesnโt and can check with regardless of the distant final set it to. This isnโt too unhealthy for the regular speeds, however if you happen toโre a sample lover then you definitelyโll positively need to keep away from guide management. Itโs price noting although that if you happen to do select to only use the button, We-Vibe has raised its location, so it is vitally straightforward to press even once you can not see it.
The Distant
The brand new We-Vibe distant is much extra consumer pleasant and discreet than the earlier model, being all black and solely that includes the modelโs lettermark and pictorial mark slightly than their Googleable wordmark. It additionally has an extra button, which is devoted to pairing the toy, slightly than simply utilizing one of many arrows. This isnโt a very thrilling change although, particularly contemplating the Ditto+ comes paired to the distant, so except you intend on additionally utilizing the app, the improve is principally simply visible. If you’re utilizing the app, nonetheless, you’ll need to re-pair it for the reason that Ditto+ can frustratingly solely be paired with one factor at a time, and to do that youโll want to carry down the button on the toy till it vibrates, after which maintain down the pairing button on the distant till it vibrates once more. Apart from this button, which options the We-Vibe tilde, there are simply 4 fairly self-explanatory buttons, two arrows and a plus and minus. As youโd think about, the plus and minus enhance and reduce the vibration intensities (which appear to have a variety of round 15 ranges), and may both be clicked or held down, while the arrows enable you to navigate by way of the modes, of which there are solely seven. It’s because thereโs no motive to incorporate the 4 regular speeds when you possibly can management the power, so as an alternative youโll simply discover the one regular and 6 patterns. Lastly, the distant has the flexibility to show the toy on and off, which will be accomplished by merely holding down both the plus or minus button until the specified impact is achieved.
The App
Iโve reviewed many We-Vibe merchandise that use the We-Join app, beginning with the Want in 2017, and with adjustments being coated in my opinions of the Wand and Nova 2 in 2019 and 2020 respectively. But itโs now been three years since Iโve used itย and it has been by way of a significant replace on this time. In reality, it was so main that itโs not even referred to as We-Join anymore, however simply We-Vibe. While there are numerous similarities, the most important impression I get from the brand new model is that they’ve tried to simplify issues. With this in thoughts, and as a lot because it pains me, Iโll be re-reviewing the app for the fourth time under.
As with the 2019 replace, the adjustments to the We-Vibe app are primarily visible. While I beforehand applauded its use of discretion, with a darkish purple display and solely silhouette photos of merchandise, We-Vibe have sadly gone in the wrong way now, implementing vibrant colors and outstanding imagery of the linked toy. That is high quality if you happen toโre at residence, however any plans to make use of it out of the home might disappear fairly rapidly. Opening the app, which is simple to seek out, youโll be reassured of We-Vibeโs knowledge safety, one thing the app will remind you of at each potential second, and you’ll not have to make an account. The house display then has three sections: Toys (for solo play), Lengthy Distance Play, and Intimate Inspiration. This final bit is completely new, and options three articles (presumably they alter, however not over the few weeks Iโve been testing it) that characteristic a mixture of intercourse schooling and ideas. Moreover, there may be additionally a settings menu obtainable, which can allow you to toggle off the Lengthy Distance Play and Intimate Inspiration for a extra simplified residence display, in addition to do issues like set a passcode to enter the app.
To attach the Ditto+ to the We-Vibe app, merely choose your mannequin within the connection menu after which maintain down its button until it vibrates. As soon as paired, the 2 will know one another, and also youโll simply have to have the Ditto+ on for it for use by the app (though it does have to be regularly reconnected). A settings menu for the toy itself is included, which options info just like the battery stage (which has been caught on 0%), a 24-second information video (which fails to indicate any useful info), and controls to regulate the toyโs sleep mode and most depth. Going into the solo play mode, there are actually six choices. Single Vibe lets you change the pace of your chosen vibration mode (the app has ten, one being regular and 9 being patterns), and this works by transferring a dot across the display. Sadly, it doesn’t work, with the Ditto+ both being off or on, with zero variation of depth. Even with out this main challenge although, I do miss the visible illustration of the patterns that was once current right here. There may be then Multi Vibe, which is a brand new concept that splits the display 4 methods, with a selected vibration mode being in every space, so you possibly can swipe the dot to immediately transfer forwards and backwards between them. However, as with Single Vibe, this doesn’t work with my Ditto+. Subsequent, Contact Play is again, with the vibrations responding to how rapidly you swipe your finger, and while you possibly can not create your individual patterns, you possibly can create a playlist of premade patterns utilizing Playlist Mode. Lastly, the music-based Beat additionally returns, with its microphone vibrations now being Ambient Mode. This works properly, and you may even select between bass, midrange and treble, though Beat nonetheless doesnโt have Spotify capabilities and in addition appears to glitch out when I attempt to join it to my very restricted Apple library, so I can not use it both. Additionally of observe is you could now management a number of toys without delay by way of the app, both individually or collectively.
The Lengthy Distance Play contains a pretty commonplace textual content message and audio / video name service that’s actually no completely different from previous variations of the app, with the most important change being the way in which the toy is managed, which is in step with the brand new solo play space. Plus, slightly than having its personal display, the toy management now options on the backside half of the chat modes, showing clear throughout video calls, making it simpler to talk and play on the identical time. This, mixed with the flexibility to ship 4 reactions throughout play (โLike it!โ, โChange vibe!โ, โExtra!โ, or โMuch less!โ), are welcomed enhancements. Sadly, my companion and I bumped into numerous points throughout use, together with not having the ability to join to one another, a endless chatbox loading display, laggy or non-existent vibration response, damaged notification screens, and random disconnections. To not point out that all through all of this, the Ditto+ nonetheless solely had one vibration depth.
Total, Iโm clearly disillusioned with the brand new We-Vibe app. While I can recognize the visuals, and there are some nice concepts in there, it’s vastly let down by the performance of it. Iโm dearly hoping that it’s simply because the Ditto+ is so new, since I attempted the Nova 2 with it and didn’t expertise the identical vibration depth glitch, however even with that it isn’t on for a luxurious model to have such a significant element of a product not work while it’s in the marketplace. And as for different areas of the app, while I could have struggled with glitches up to now because of the proximity of my opinions to main updates, this explicit model has been stay for months (if not longer), so thereโs actually no excuse. The one upside is that the replace logs do present they’re actively engaged on fixes, however truthfully I simply miss the previous model.
First Impressions
We-Vibe has a status for making among the greatest vibrators in the marketplace, so I used to be extraordinarily excited to show the Ditto+ on for the primary time. One other success, I’m completely right here for the toyโs tremendous rumbly vibrations. In reality, itโs so rumbly that it nearly looks as if a distinct type of vibration altogether, as if you happen to can actually really feel the motor and its fixed thumping, reminding me a variety of the vibrations within the We-Vibe Nova 2. On that observe, there may be additionally an amazing vary of intensities, even when I can solely entry them when utilizing the distant. And, as for the noise stage, this isnโt too unhealthy, particularly throughout use. Though itโs price noting that it may be heard at full pace even when inserted, so if you happen to plan on utilizing it in public you might need to hold this in thoughts.
My Expertise
The final time I took half in any type of anal play was throughout my evaluation of the b-Vibe Rimming Plug seven months in the past, so for the needs of this evaluation you possibly can say Iโm just about untrained. But the We-Vibe Ditto+ is so completely sized and formed, with its small diameter and tapered level, that insertion is as straightforward as ever. Reasonably than being too small, nonetheless, and rapidly forgotten, the curve of the toy helps to take care of sensation. I additionally discover the bottom aids with this, as since it’s barely wider than regular, Iโm at all times conscious of its presence. The chance right here can be that it’s uncomfortable, however this hasnโt been my expertise, as an alternative simply serving to to remind me of the Ditto+, which I take pleasure in (afterall, whatโs the purpose of carrying a butt plug if you happen to overlook itโs even there?). The slim form of the plug itself additionally permits for straightforward vaginal penetration while carrying it, and any type of play, whether or not itโs PIV, a vaginal toy, or only a easy wand massager, feels elevated when the Ditto+ is inserted, to not point out the orgasms. Iโve significantly taken to utilizing the Nova 2 with it, giving me hands-free stimulation of three completely different erogenous zones! As for the vibrations, I actually take pleasure in them, and being extra rumbly than buzzy ensures that I donโt really feel numbed out. With all this in thoughts, Iโve discovered the Ditto+ a fast approach to amplify any play Iโm already doing, and itโs so good to have a high-quality vibrating butt plug that I donโt have to coach myself prematurely to have the ability to take pleasure in.
With reference to prolonged put on, Iโve discovered the We-Vibe Ditto+ to be perfect. As I discussed above, the bottom ensures you donโt overlook about it, while nonetheless being sufficiently small to be snug when standing or sitting. My favorite place to put on it has been within the bathe, and the splash-proof distant is ideal for this. The vibrations are additionally enjoyable to placed on throughout this type of use, though sadly Iโve discovered them tough to manageโฆ

Iโve already spoken about how the We-Vibe app doesnโt actually work with the Ditto+. So, you possibly can think about my immense disappointment after I realised the included distant doesnโt work both. Initially when testing it out every part appeared high quality. However as soon as I inserted the Ditto+, the issues started. It seems that when the product is getting used, the distant stops having the ability to management it. Generally it really works, however the majority of the time it doesn’t, and so the one dependable approach to make use of it’s to position the distant up in opposition to the bottom of the toy, which type of defeats the aim (and feels very foolish too). To make issues worse, at one level the distant stopped working completely. I attempted to switch the battery and located it caught inside the distant, to the purpose the place I wanted to make use of heavy-duty pliers to be able to take away it. For no matter motive, placing the eliminated battery again in obtained the distant functioning once more. No less than, functioning typically, as now it has a behavior of dying till I take the battery out and reinsert it once more. These points are much less of an issue throughout solo play, as it’s straightforward sufficient then to only use the button instantly on the toy and sacrifice some performance. Nonetheless, throughout prolonged put on or partnered play, it’s extremely irritating (and a part of the explanation why Iโve largely been carrying it within the bathe), and an enormous con to one of these use.
Cleansing & Care
Because the We-Vibe Ditto+ is waterproof and made out of body-safe silicone, cleansing it’s straightforward. For normal care, simply rinse or soak it in some heat water earlier than washing it with cleaning soap, being cautious to go over the textual content on the within of the bottom since micro organism might disguise right here. You’ll be able to then rinse and go away it to air dry. Alternatively, for a deeper clear, which it’s best to do each few makes use of or when switching between companions or orifices, you possibly can wipe it down with a ten% bleach answer. In between makes use of, retailer it in We-Vibeโs included bag to maintain it clear. Moreover, be sure that to not use silicone-based lubricants with this product, as it might have an effect on the silicone it’s made with.
Last Ideas
This evaluation was truly purported to be launched throughout Anal August. However I skilled so many points with the We-Vibe Ditto+ over the course of my testing that it ended up being considerably delayed. At its coronary heart, it is a good toy. The form is ideal and so are the vibrations, and I want I may go away this evaluation at that. However no, as a result of the Ditto+ is riddled with so many high quality points that I’m deeply involved for the model I as soon as adored a lot. My fears began the second I noticed this toy, with its outstanding seam and nicks within the silicone nearly foreshadowing the issues to come back. Between the โimprovedโ We-Vibe app solely being able to a single pace and the โupgradedโ distant barely having the ability to hook up with the Ditto+ throughout use, these management choices felt basically ineffective. And while Iโm grateful We-Vibe had the care to incorporate a button on the toy itself, not solely is it very awkward to make use of throughout PIV play or prolonged put on (significantly once youโre clothed), however it’s extremely restricted, solely permitting you entry to 4 of the Ditto+โs potential 15 speeds. So, itโs no shock that Iโve taken to carrying the Ditto+ round the home with out the vibrations, which is a disgrace after theyโre so rattling good. The one saving grace has been utilizing the toy for solo play, and Iโve gotta say itโs going to be laborious to beat that Ditto+ x Nova 2 combo anytime quickly. But even with this, it sadly simply doesnโt really feel proper to suggest this toy in any capability proper now. After all, if I ever obtain a brand new We-Vibe distant and see a change within the app, Iโll make sure you replace this evaluation!
