We-Vibe Moxie+ vs Lovense Flexer Side-By-Side Comparison
Use Case Ratings
Performance Ratings
Our Verdict
The We-Vibe Moxie+ is only good if you genuinely need both an app and a physical remote – and are willing to use the remote as the primary control, because the app isn’t reliable. But the Moxie+ generally underperforms compared to other app-controlled panty vibes like the Lovense Ferri and other remote-controlled vibrators like the VeDO Niki.
The app is a big downside. It’s buggy in close range and inconsistent for long-distance. Controls occasionally freeze and often you can’t connect with a long-distance partner at all. Stimulation is the other limitation. The vibrations are only moderately strong and the Moxie+’s firm, straight body doesn’t maintain good clitoral contact.
If both an app and a remote genuinely matter to you, the Moxie+ is okay – it’s secure, reasonably comfortable, and quiet. But it’s generally worse than other options if you’re fine with choosing a single control method. Consider the Ferri for app control or the VeDO Niki for remote control.
The Lovense Flexer can be an interesting hands-free wearable to use in bed if you specifically want motion that rhythmically presses against and releases your clit. It can be extremely stimulating once I’m warmed up, but it’s not the best choice if you primarily want firm G-spot pressure, a comfortable and secure fit to wear around (choose a panty vibrator or egg vibrator for that), or rumbly vibrations.
Although its flexing motion is intended to create an internal fingering sensation, most of the movement actually happens in the clit arm. The G-spot pressure is subtle, while the external arm repeatedly presses down on and then lets off my clit. I find that dynamic sensation really stimulating, and I orgasm hands-free from it – those who like pressing on their clit with their fingers may especially enjoy it. However, the movement can feel pinchy or distracting at times, and the rigid, non-adjustable shape can feel like it’s working its way out.
The Flexer is also noisy and uncomfortable to wear around. The motion on your clit is the main reason to choose it.
For a quieter dual-stimulation wearable with more G-spot focused motion, try the Lelo Ida Wave. Or if you want to stick with Lovense and you don’t care about motion, the Lovense Dolce has more rumbly, powerful vibrations.
For wearing around, the We-Vibe Moxie+ works okay – the magnet holds the toy mostly in place with walking, stairs, and heavier movement, but it does swivel a little side-to-side. The vibrations are also quiet. The remote is comfortable to operate by feel from a pocket, but it struggles with body interference so your partner needs a clear shot to you, or you’ll want to control it yourself. The 85-minute battery is decent.
The clit stimulation itself is just okay since the straight body doesn’t transfer the vibrations to your clit as well as curved panty vibrators. And the app is unreliable so you won’t want to rely on it.
For wearing around, the Lovense Ferri and NS Novelties Techno Lucy are better app-controlled* options, or the VeDO Niki is a good remote-controlled option.
The Lovense Flexer is bad for wearing around. Most powerful dual-stimulation wearables are not built for walking around the way panty vibrators or egg vibrators are. The Flexer is loud, restricts your movement, and not very secure when the flex motion is active.
Walking, stairs, sitting, and bending forward all make the toy feel too girthy and uncomfortable for me. And when moving around it feels like it may work itself out. The buzzy vibrations and high-pitched sound from the flexing motion are also very loud.
If you want quieter, comfortable dual-stimulation that stays put while walking around, try pairing the Lovense Ferri (clit stimulation) and Lovense Lush 4 (G-spot stimulation) together – you can control them simultaneously from the Lovense app. With the budget for one toy, your better off getting whichever one of those provides your preffered stimulation.
The We-Vibe Moxie+ is subpar for hands-free clit stimulation in bed. Its vibrations are only moderately strong, and the firm, straight body transfers that power inconsistently to my clit.
It stays securely in place in bed, has a decent battery life, and a convenient remote for controlling the toy yourself. But I can’t orgasm with it hands-free like I can with the Lovense Ferri and VeDO Niki.
The best way to use the Lovense Flexer is for hands-free dual-stimulation in bed. The strong buzzy vibrations and flexing motion on my clit are very stimulating, and I can orgasm with it hands-free. And the motion makes it feel different from vibration-only dual-stim wearables like the Lovense Dolce, so it just offers something fun and unique.
However, some tradoffs are that it’s extremely buzzy (which some people don’t like), and the rigid shape can press into me uncomfortably, depending on how you’re positioned. I find it most comfortable lying down – sitting up in bed feels too tight.
The external arm also ends up moving more than the internal arm, so it’s really most stimulating on my clit – not my G-spot as intended. But still, it’s very stimulating, though could be distracting or overwhelming if you’re easily overstimulated. I have to be fully warmed-up before using this toy.
The Flexer is powerful, has a great app, and offers interesting unique stimulation. But the Lelo Ida Wave and Lovense Dolce are better dual-stimulation options if you prefer more rumbly vibes or don’t want movement on your clit.
The We-Vibe Moxie+ is terrible for long-distance play. The We-Vibe app’s long-distance experience has a persistent bug where the app claims both partners are “offline”, and blocks most sessions before they start. And when my partner and I do get past it, control often breaks within a minute.
For long-distance play, go with the Lovense Ferri. The Lovense app’s long-distance experience is the best of any brand I’ve tested.
The Lovense Flexer is a good long-distance option for bedroom use: the Lovense app is excellent (the best of any brand), and the Flexer provides strong stimulation I can orgasm with hands-free. But it’s loud and uncomfortable to wear around, so it’s best for in-bed long-distance play.
Lovense’s app allows your partner to control vibration intensity and flexing speed separately. They can quickly create a custom pattern, and the chatting and video calls are reliable and clear.
The toy itself is only comfortable when you can lie down since the rigid fit can cause a tight feeling or pinching if you bend forward or move around too much.
So if long-distance play means something you can wear around comfortably, try the Lovense Ferri for clit stimulation, and add in the Lovense Lush 4 for dual-stimulation. You can control them simultaneously in the same great app.

Clit Stimulation: Main Takeaways
In the next sections, I’ll cover the Moxie+’s vibration power and rumbliness in-depth.
Here’s the main conclusion:
The Moxie+’s clit stimulation is middle-of-the-road. It’s moderately strong, but the straight design transfers that power inconsistently to my clit. And it’s not that rumbly either like people often expect from We-Vibe.
If you value clit stimulation most, the Lovense Ferri is strongest, or go with the VeDO Niki if you care more about rumbliness. Both are stronger than the Moxie+ and transfer their vibrations better to my clit.
In the next sections, I’ll cover the Flexer’s clit vibration power and rumbliness in-depth.
Here’s the main conclusion: the Flexer provides some of the more-intense clit stimulation out of the dual-stim wearables I have tested, and I can orgasm with it hands-free. The vibrations are buzzy and the flexing motion on your clit can be overstimulating at times though.
If more consistent clit pressure and rumbliness matters most, go with the Lovense Dolce, which doesn’t have a movement motor. If you’re interested in the motion and enjoy buzzy vibes, stick with the Flexer.
Clit Vibrations: Power, Range, and Transfer Effectiveness
The Moxie+’s clit motor delivers decent power, but its straight, firm body doesn’t transfer that power to your clit as reliably as the best panty vibrators.
At 6.75 out of 10, the top setting is about 72% of the Lovense Ferri‘s 9.35 and a step behind the VeDO Niki‘s 8.0. I can’t orgasm hands-free with the Moxie+ like I can with those other two panty vibes.
The range is wide with small, comfortable steps between levels. When controlled with the remote, the Moxie+ steps through 13 levels from a very gentle 0.70 up to its 6.75 top setting – so there’s plenty of warmup levels and moderate settings, just nothing very strong at the top.
The vibration transfer to my clit is inconsistent. With a handheld you can press harder for more intensity; with a wearable, the toy’s shape has naturally deliver the vibrations to your clit, and shapes that contour to your body do that better.
The Moxie+ is firm, long, and straight, so it doesn’t stay snug against the body. When I get it situated just right, transfer is fine, but keeping it there is difficult. The straight body slips out of position with normal movement, the same way the Romp Party does, and once it shifts, the intensity I actually feel drops off.
If you want stronger clit stimulation, both the Ferri(app-controlled) and Niki(remote-controlled) are better choices.
The Flexer’s clit motor is very strong, reaching 9.1 out of 10 on high – one of my strongest wearables. And it still starts gently enough that I can warm up before using the stronger settings.
With wearables, strong motors only matter if the toy keeps that motor in contact with your body. In bed, the Flexer does that well, but in a unique way: When the flexing motion is active, the external arm moves back and forth, varying the clit pressure. This makes the stimulation feel stronger and more interesting to me as the external arm presses those vibrations firmly into my clit.
The Flexer is a good fit if you like movement and intensity shifts, but some will prefer consistent contact instead. If you want a dual-stimulation toy that stays in one spot and a more controlled feel, go with the vibration-only Lovense Dolce. The Lelo Ida Wave’s clit stimulation is also more consistent and rumbly while also providing G-spot stimulation from motion.
Clit Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
We rate rumbly vibrations higher than buzzy because most people prefer them – but it’s a personal preference, and some people prefer buzzy – I personally like both.
The Moxie+’s rumbliness is subpar. It’s extremely rumbly on its lowest settings (starting around 49 Hz), but moderately buzzy at median power (102 Hz), and extremely buzzy at the top (122 Hz). Since the lowest settings are gentle and mostly warmup levels – most of the frequency range you’ll use will feel buzzy.
That’s essentially the same profile as most other panty vibrator I’ve tested except the VeDO Niki.
The Lovense Ferri, Romp Party, and NS Novelties Techno Lucy all run moderately buzzy at median power and cross into extremely buzzy on high. However, because some options, like the Ferri, have more power at similar frequencies to the Moxie+, the stronger ones actually feel more rumbly than the Moxie+.
For a wearable clit vibrator, frequency matters less than the power and how reliably the toy delivers that power to your clit – frequency is secondary. But the Moxie+ is only decent on all three. If rumbly vibrations are specifically what you’re after in a panty vibe, the VeDO Niki is the most rumbly and it gets the power and clit transfer right too.
We generally rate rumbly vibrations higher because most people enjoy them more, but buzzy versus rumbly is still a preference. The Flexer’s clit motor is for people who like strong, extremely buzzy intensity. It’s actually my buzziest dual-stimulation wearable.
The clit vibrations range from 139.59 Hz on low to 244.51 Hz on high – extremely buzzy throughout its entire range. The two vibration motors create a faint wobble sensation when they play off each other, which adds some complexity. But the Flexer is not at all rumbly.
If buzzy vibrations feel tickly or numb to you, the Lovense Dolce or Lelo Ida Wave are better.
G-spot Stimulation: Main Takeaways
Like all panty vibrators, the We-Vibe Moxie+ only stimulates your clit – not your G-spot. Since most women need clit stimulation to orgasm, a panty vibrator is often the right type of wearable. But if you’re interested in G-spot stimulation instead, see all our recommendations for the best egg vibrators here.
In the next sections, I’ll cover the Flexer’s G-spot vibration power, rumbliness, and flexing motion.
Here’s the main conclusion: the Flexer’s G-spot stimulation is good for a dual-stim wearable, but the flexing motion contributes less than you’d expect. The external arm moves more than the internal arm with each flex, so you can feel some internal pressure, but it’s gentle.
Thankfully, the bulbous design transfers the vibrations well to the front wall. So the combination of internal vibes and gentle movement combines for an enjoyable experience.
But handheld vibrators provide much firmer front-wall pressure since you can leverage the base with your hand. Two of my favorites are the We-Vibe Nova 2 and Lovense Nora.
G-spot Vibrations: Power, Range, and Transfer Effectiveness
The Flexer’s G-spot vibrations reach a moderate 4.9 out of 10 strength that enhances the experience when paired with the toy’s external vibes and flexing motion. I’m able to orgasm with the Flexer when the internal and external vibrations work together with the flexing motion.
But, the Lovense Dolce’s internal arm has nearly double the vibration strength of the Flexer. Both have an excellent, bulbous design that transfers the vibrations efficiently to the front wall.
If you find even gentle internal motion more stimulating than vibrations, the Flexer is a great option. If you don’t need motion, and feel stimulated from internal vibrations alone, the Dolce will feel the strongest to you.
G-spot Vibrations: Frequency (Rumbliness)
We rate rumbly internal vibrations higher because they tend to feel deeper, though some people enjoy buzzy stimulation. The Flexer’s G-spot motor stays extremely buzzy across its entire range, from 182.44 Hz on low to 257.18 Hz on high.
Buzzy vibrations don’t travel as deep, so the buzzy vibrations at only a moderate strength on the Flexer definitely need the internal motion and external vibes to feel worthwhile.
If rumbliness is a priority, the Lovense Dolce is a much better pick.
G-spot Stimulation from Motion
The Flexer’s motion is enjoyable, but it feels more like subtle internal pressure changes than the firm G-spot fingering that’s advertised.
The internal arm moves in a front-to-back arc at 34 to 63 cycles per minute. The flexing hinge is very strong, and doesn’t “give” under pressure like the flexible Lelo Ida Wave’s internal arm does. However, because there’s no “anchoring” point for the Flexer, the external arm moves more than the internal arm, causing the G-spot pressure to feel gentle. You really feel most of the motion on your clit.
I can orgasm with the Flexer when the motion is paired with clit vibrations and internal vibes. But handheld toys provide firmer internal pressure if that’s a big priority to you. The We-Vibe Nova 2 is great if you want to leverage the pressure yourself. And the Lovense Nora is better if you want automatic internal motion.
App Control: Main Takeaways
In the next sections, I’ll cover the We-Vibe app’s close-range features, long-distance features, and connectivity in detail.
Here’s the main conclusion:
We-Vibe’s app is buggy in close range and unreliable in long-distance. Lovense’s app is by far the better app.
In close-range there are ongoing bugs that affect several products, including the Moxie+. The controls sometimes freeze and require you to close/re-open the app. Long-distance control has a bug that often blocks you from connecting at all.
While the Moxie+ specifically has shown fewer bugs in our testing than other We-Vibe products like the We-Vibe Chorus Pro, Jive 2, and other newer models, the persistent glitches for other products make it hard to trust the Moxie+ either.
If app control is a priority to you in a panty vibrator, go with the Lovense Ferri. Its app is the best of any brand, with outstanding features and connectivity. Plus, the Ferri is the panty vibrator I orgasm with hands-free the easiest.
In the next sections, I’ll cover the Lovense app’s close-range features, long-distance features, and connectivity in detail.
Here’s the main conclusion:
The Lovense app is by far the best of any brand. It provides the most control, is easiest to use, and has the most reliable connectivity. If an outstanding app is your top priority, stick to a Lovense toy.
App Control: Close-Range Features
The We-Vibe Moxie+’s close-range features in the app are decent when they work. It has simple control interfaces to adjust intensity and choose from preset patterns without in-depth custom pattern creation. But bugs occasionally cause the controls to break, which requires an app restart. While the bugs are less prominent for the Moxie+ than for We-Vibe’s newer toys, if app control is a priority, the Lovense Ferri is a far better choice.
We-Vibe’s main control happens on two screens: Single Vibe and Multi Vibe. They work similarly – you drag an on-screen dot to adjust the intensity, and the toy keeps vibrating wherever you leave it. Multi Vibe also splits the screen into four corners, each holding a preset pattern you choose, so dragging the dot into a corner switches to that pattern at whatever strength the dot’s position represents.
It’s a clean design for the basics, and a quick way to flip between a constant intensity and a preset without a menu detour. Unfortunately there’s an annoying bug on the Single and Multi Vibe screens where the motor’s dot sometimes freezes or becomes non-interactive at times.
What you can’t do from these screens is create a custom pattern in the moment the way you can in the Lovense or Satisfyer apps. Pattern creation lives on a separate screen and is pretty unusable.
It’s hidden on a separate screen that takes a few taps to find. Once you’re there, you draw a waveform without being able to feel it; you save and name the pattern, navigate back to the control screen, select the pattern, and only then find out what it feels like.
Patterns are also capped at the width of your screen, so what you create comes back short and choppy. My partner and I both tried creating patterns; his played, mine crashed the app on every one of four attempts and I gave up.
The preset patterns are easy to use but basic. There are 10 of them, each with a name and a one-line waveform icon, so you can roughly tell what you’re picking before you select it. The simple ones – Pulse, Wave – match their names and icons well enough, but others are not intuitive.
You adjust the intensity of a preset pattern from the Single Vibe and Multi Vibe with the control dot. There’s also a Playlist feature for stringing presets together into longer, more varied sequences, but you can’t feel what you’re assembling as you build it, so it’s mostly guesswork – I don’t use it.
Multi-toy control (like if you have a Moxie+ and a Jive 2 for G-spot stimulation) is decent when it works. You can connect several toys at once (we got four going simultaneously) and either control each one independently or merge them all into a single dot. But often one or more of the toys just stopped responding to our actions in the app.
Sound and music modes are okay. Sound mode uses your phone’s mic to make the toy respond to ambient noise. Music mode plays the toy in time with songs saved locally on your phone (no Spotify or Apple Music streaming, which is a bummer).
Both work, but the controls aren’t well labeled – figuring out whether you’re adjusting the mic’s sensitivity or the toy’s max power takes some experimenting. And there’s no minimum-volume threshold, so you can’t tell the toy not to vibrate unless the sound around you is above a certain level.
For better close-range features without bugs, consider the Lovense Ferri.
The Lovense Flexer’s app has the best close-range features of any brand.
On the main Remote screen, you drag the control dots up or down to adjust intensity of the vibrations and speed of the flexing motion.
Tap Float to hold a steady power/speed, or Loop to draw a custom pattern that repeats. Since the toy reacts as you draw, you can feel the pattern in real time instead of creating it blindly and testing it later. If you like what you made, tap Record to save it to My Patterns.
Lovense typically allows separate control of each motor. Unfortunately, the two arms’ separate vibrating motors are tied together. Setting the vibration intensity of the internal arm does the same to the external arm. But the flexing motion is still controlled separately.
For presets, the My Patterns screen includes Lovense’s default patterns, anything you’ve saved, and patterns downloaded from Lovense’s active community library.
Lovense’s sound-reactive mode is also the best I’ve used. You can set a minimum decibel threshold, so the toy stays still until the room gets loud enough, and adjust sensitivity to control how much of the toy’s power range it uses. The live decibel readout makes it easy to calibrate. Many other apps either combine these controls or don’t offer a threshold at all.
The music-sync mode works with Spotify or local files and follows the music well enough for hands-free variation. You can cap the intensity to keep it in your comfortable range.
Lovense also includes a few useful extras: Voice Control, device-to-device control with certain Lovense toys, and per-toy max intensity settings. The intensity cap is helpful if you want to limit noise or prevent a partner from setting the toy too strong.
Overall, the Lovense app’s close-range features are excellent – and the best of any brand I’ve tested.
App Control: Long-Distance Features
The We-Vibe app’s long-distance features are broken. The features are designed fine in theory, but persistent bugs make long-distance play unreliable enough that I can’t recommend the app for it at all. If you need long-distance play, get the Lovense Ferri instead.
The long-distance experience mirrors close-range. Your partner gets the same Single Vibe, Multi Vibe, and Touch screens to control your Moxie+, and vice-versa. You can even take back control of your own toy mid-session without ending the call – a feature I wish more apps had.
But the same bugs from close-range control affect the long-distance control – the control dot occasionally freezes or becomes unresponsive. Additionally, both partners frequently show up as “offline” to each other even when you’re both in the app, which prevents you from starting a session at all.
Even when long-distance does connect, getting into a video call takes four separate request-and-accepts (call, camera, control of your toy, control of theirs). And the in-app video feed is blurry and choppy in a way Lovense’s isn’t.
The messaging itself is decent as a basic messenger, with text, photos, voice notes, and video clips. We-Vibe also lets you save multiple partners, but doesn’t offer the anonymous one-time control links or the auto-accept settings for trusted partners that Lovense’s app does.
For long-distance play, the Lovense Ferri is cheaper and a far better panty vibrator.
Lovense also has the best long-distance experience of any brand, by a wide margin.
During messaging or video calls, your partner gets the same excellent Remote screen used for close-range control. They can set a steady intensity or flexing speed with Float or draw a repeating pattern with Loop, so long-distance control doesn’t feel stripped down. The only small downside is that you can’t control your own toy during a video call – only your partner can.
The video call tools are excellent. Incoming calls are easy to notice and accept, and once you’re in a call, the video feed is clear. You can mute, toggle your camera, switch between front and back cameras, cast audio to a speaker, or end the call. The controls stay out of the way until you tap the screen, and you can move your self-view so it doesn’t block your partner.
The app also handles normal phone use well. You can lock your screen or switch to another app without disrupting the session.
Messaging is equally strong. The thread is easy to follow, and you can send voice notes, photos, and videos from your camera or camera roll. There’s also an optional “burn after reading” feature for one-time viewing that prevents screenshots, and it works as intended.
Lovense gives you helpful partner settings too. You can let a trusted partner auto-accept control requests, get a notification when they come online, or hide your online status from specific people. Each partner can have different settings.
Lovense also offers the broadest anonymous and group control options. You can send a one-time control link or create a group link for up to 10 people. When the time runs out, they lose access and can’t request control again.
If long-distance play is the main reason you’re buying a wearable vibrator, Lovense is the best choice.
App Control: Connectivity
The We-Vibe app’s connectivity with the Moxie+ is poor in close-range and broken in long-distance.
The Bluetooth hardware itself is fine: range is excellent, and body interference doesn’t faze it. But bugs cause unreliable reconnection, frequent command misses, and trouble with long-distance play. Lovense has the most reliable app connectivity by a wide margin – consider the Lovense Ferri if app control is a priority.
Initial pairing in close-range is straightforward – add the Moxie+ to the app’s toy carousel once, and from then on it’s two taps to connect with no on-toy action needed. For most people, who own one or two We-Vibe toys and use a single phone, this part works fine.
The breakdown happens if you own several We-Vibe toys and switch between them often, or if you regularly switch which phone is controlling the same toy (like if you and your partner both connect occasionally). This causes the quick-connect routine to fail, and recovering often means deleting the toy from the app, forgetting it from your phone’s Bluetooth settings, and walking through the full pairing flow again – an annoying start to your play.
Reconnection during play is inconsistent. If you drop signal and get back in range within 10-20 seconds, the app typically reconnects automatically – but during that window the app doesn’t show that the connection has dropped, so your partner can be “controlling” the toy on screen while nothing is actually happening to your toy. Wait too long to come back in range and you’ll have to tap through the connection screens again, sometimes including holding the on-toy button, which can be awkward when you’re wearing the toy.
Even when the connection holds, the app’s controls break. Command misses are frequent enough that I don’t trust the app to keep up with what I’m asking it to do. Especially on Single and Multi Vibe screens.
The Moxie+ handles body interference cleanly. Our body-interference test simulates partner-control at three progressively harder positions – angles where your body sits between a partner’s phone and the toy which can block the signal. The Moxie+ holds a stable connection at all three. Water-rich body tissue weakens Bluetooth signals more than walls or clothes, and many wearables drop the connection at the third, most severe position; the Moxie+ doesn’t. The signal is strong, and the reliability problems are app-side. Bluetooth range is also excellent – the connection held at 250 feet in our open-air test.
Long-distance is where the app is fully broken. The problem is the two app-level bugs I covered in the Long Distance Features section above: both partners frequently show as “offline” to each other and can’t start a session at all, and when they do connect, control commands often stop reaching the toys. Both bugs happen regularly without a reliable way to fix it.
If reliable app connectivity is what you need – close-range or long-distance – go with the Lovense Ferri. It has outstanding connectivity and it’s the panty vibrator I can most consistently orgasm with hands-free.
The Flexer’s connectivity is excellent. Lovense has the most reliable app connection of any brand I’ve tested, both for nearby Bluetooth control and long-distance play.
Pairing is quick: the very first time you connect, just tap Add Toy, turn the Flexer on, and it appears in the app within seconds. After that first setup, it auto-connects as soon as you turn it on with the app open.
Once paired, the Flexer stays connected through normal phone use, including locking your screen, switching apps, or leaving the app idle.
It also handles body interference very well. Body tissue can weaken Bluetooth more than walls or clothing, which is why some wearable vibrators work fine for solo control but drop connection when a partner controls them from certain angles. In our body-interference test, the Flexer stayed connected through all three positions, including the hardest one.
Bluetooth range was excellent too, reaching about 315 feet in our clear line-of-sight test. That’s one of the longest ranges we’ve measured for a wearable and far more than most people will need. Though walls and other interference will shorten real-world range.
If the it does disconnect, the app reconnects automatically once the signal is clear. A red “Reconnecting…” message also tells the controlling partner that control has paused. You can choose whether the toy stops vibrating during a disconnect with Auto-Stop, or keeps vibrating at the last intensity level until it reconnects.
Long-distance connectivity is also excellent. The toy connects to your phone over Bluetooth, and your phone connects to your partner’s phone over Wi-Fi or cell data. Since the Bluetooth connection is strong, long-distance play works well as long as your internet connection is decent. Sessions stay stable, commands go through reliably, and locking your phone or switching apps doesn’t disrupt control.
One quirk: if you start a session on Wi-Fi and then switch to cell data, the first switch can drop control and require a quick re-invite. After that, switching works normally. To avoid this, start the session on cellular data – then you can switch freely between the two.
Remote Control: Main Takeaways
In the next sections, I’ll cover the Moxie+’s remote features and connectivity in detail.
Here’s the main conclusion:
The Moxie+’s remote is good for solo play or partnered play where your partner has a clear line-of-sight to you (like not sitting at an angle to you or behind you). It has all the controls you need and a long connection range.
The one limitation is body interference: commands often don’t go through when your body sits in the signal path between your partner’s remote and the toy, where most panty-vibe remotes I’ve tested hold steady.
Go with the VeDO Niki for reliable through-body partner control.
The Lovense Flexer doesn’t include a physical remote control. A remote lets you adjust the toy by feel – without pulling out your phone. Though there’s other downsides like less depth and no visual feedback to help your partner know what your toy’s doing. If you want to consider options with physical remotes, see our recommendations in these guides:
- best remote and app-controlled vibrators (all types of vibrators)
- best wearable vibrators (wearables only).
Remote Control: Features
The We-Vibe Moxie+’s remote features are great.
One of the best aspects is that the power and pattern controls are separate. There’s dedicated + and − buttons to move forward and backward through 13 power levels, and pressing and holding either button steps through them quickly to reach a higher or lower setting faster.
And there’s forward and backward buttons to move through the 6 vibration patterns. So I never have to cycle past patterns to reach a power level or vice versa – many remotes put them on the same loop.
The remote itself is comfortable to hold. It’s small and silicone-coated sitting naturally in my hand, and the buttons are raised enough that I can feel which is which without looking – this kind of eyes-free operation can be a practical advantage of a remote over an app.
Like most remotes, the Moxie+’s remote just blinks when a button is pressed – there’s no way for the partner holding it to tell what setting your toy is on. It’s not a huge deal, especially if you’re often the one controlling your own toy. But for a controlling partner, it can feel less engaging than an app’s visual feedback.
Remote Control: Connectivity
The Moxie+’s remote works well on many connection aspects – fast responsiveness, instant reconnection, and one of the longer ranges of my panty vibrators’ remotes (125 ft in our test). But it’s significantly affected by body interference.
Body tissue between the remote and the toy is the main thing that breaks a remote’s signal during partner control – your body can sit in the signal path between your partner’s remote and the toy. And water-rich materials like your body can significantly dampen Bluetooth and RF signals.
Our body-interference test simulates this scenario at three progressively challenging angles, and the Moxie+’s remote drops the connection at all three – the worst of any panty vibrator (including the original Moxie). The on-toy button flashes indicating it has lost connection, and you have to move the remote closer to recover.
It’s important to understand our test runs harsher than typical real-world conditions. At many angles, an external toy like a panty vibrator won’t have any body interference blocking the signal. So your partner-controlled play may be less drop-prone in practice. And for solo control when I’m holding the remote myself, commands have gone through reliably. But most panty-vibe remotes and apps I’ve tested hold a reliable connection through body interference.
If you want reliable control without worrying about where your partner is positioned from you, go with the VeDO Niki for a remote controlled toy or the Lovense Ferri for an app-controlled toy.
On-Toy Controls
Like most panty vibrators, the Moxie+’s on-toy controls are limited by design – the toy sits inside your underwear during use, so you’ll typically rely on the remote.
A single button cycles through four power levels and six patterns, with no minus button. To step back to a gentler power, you click forward through the rest of the loop.
The button is easy to feel, but it’s slim and takes more pressure than most. It also sits at the very top of the toy, so pressing it pushes the toy uncomfortably against my clit. Slipping my thumb under to brace it works, but it’s awkward.
For the full 13-step power range – and any adjustment you’d rather not reach into your underwear to make – the remote does the real work.
The Flexer’s on-toy controls work as a backup, but the app is the main way to use this toy. A single button cycles through three power levels and four patterns on the same loop, with the vibration and motion functions linked together.
Lovense lets you customize the three on-toy preset power levels in the app so the button provides access to the levels you like. This can be useful if you don’t want to mess with the app for quick, immediate interaction.
However, the button sits far enough back on the toy that it’s annoying to reach while using. So the app is really what you should count on in typical use.
Secure Fit & Adjustability
The Moxie+’s magnet anchors the toy reliably to your underwear in bed, while walking, and during heavy exercise, but there’s some side-to-side swiveling.
The magnet is strong, but it’s a small disc at the top of a long toy without any body contouring. The magnet pins the clit-end securely and that point stays locked to your underwear. But the long, straight lower end has room to swing slightly side-to-side as I move. The more body-contouring shape of panty vibrators like the VeDO Niki and NS Novelties Techno Lucy reduces that side-to-side movement.
Underwear choice also matters across every activity – form-fitting underwear keeps the Moxie+ snug much better. With a looser pair, the magnet still holds, but the underwear itself can shift and move the toy with it.
In bed, with tight underwear, I could keep the Moxie+ in a good, stimulating position.
Standing, walking, or doing heavier activity like running/jumping is where it moves side-to-side more and the contact with my clit loosens a bit – something a lot of magnetic panty vibes do to some degree. The toy doesn’t drift sideways or come loose, but gravity pulls my underwear (and the toy with it) a bit away from my clit when I’m upright. Pulling everything up to sit closer to my body fixes it, but it’s an adjustment I make every so often.
The Flexer’s fit is workable when using it hands-free in bed, but it moves around a lot and does not feel secure when walking. Some of that movement is intentional – the flexing arm presses both internally and externally. But it also makes the stimulation feel a bit chaotic and less secure.
The bigger issue is that the Flexer is rigid and not adjustable. If the shape lines up well with your anatomy, it can be very stimulating. If it doesn’t, there’s not much you can do to improve the fit. That makes it a riskier pick than adjustable dual-stim toys like the Lovense Dolce, which stays in place better and has a good adjustable spine to help you get a better fit for your individual anatomy.
The Flexer feels least secure when the flexing motion is on. With vibrations alone, it’s more stable, but still has a “half in” feeling that makes me less confident moving around. During light activity, especially bending or squatting, I worry it could work its way out. And it’s not comfortable to wear when moving around anyway.
I’d treat the Flexer as an in-bed toy, not something for walking around. For dual-stimulation you can wear around more easily, try pairing the Lovense Ferri with the Lovense Lush 4 or Lush Mini.
Comfort
The Moxie+ is comfortable without too much movement, but its firm, slim body delivers more focused pressure on my clit than broader panty vibrators – pleasant if you like a precise point of contact, potentially uncomfortable if you don’t.
In bed, the silicone surface is soft and smooth and doesn’t tap around too much. With no flex and a slim profile, the Moxie+ contacts a precise area for focused stimulation.
When I’m walking around, the same firm, straight shape shifts more than a broader or contoured toy would – particularly on stairs or when I’m going from sitting to standing. Sometimes this can feel more stimulating, but other times it’s uncomfortable. If you’re sensitive to overstimulation, the lack of control here may be overwhelming.
A broader panty vibrator with more even pressure is more consistently comfortable. Like the VeDO Niki (remote-controlled) and the NS Novelties Techno Lucy (app-controlled). Two more comfortable picks at a lower price.
The Flexer can be an uncomfortable dual-stimulation wearable, and takes some warmup and unique preferences to enjoy. It is rigid, girthy, and the flexing motion can pinch against my pubic bone.
It’s best for those who prefer a fuller internal feel, and don’t mind firm pressure on your clit.
I find it most comfortable lying in bed. Sitting up or bending forward makes it feel too tight. Walking around is worse – my movement feels restricted in normal activities like walking, stairs, standing, or sitting.
This might be fine for those who value the strong, unique stimulation it provides. But if comfort is a priority, the Fantasy For Her G-spot Stimulate-Her is one of my most comfortable dual-stimulation wearables in bed. Or, egg and panty vibrators are more comfortable to wear around.
Noise
The We-Vibe Moxie+ is quiet.
Decibel readings on low and high were both too quiet for our Sound Level Meter to register. The ambient room noise was 35 dBA, and the Moxie+ never measured higher than that.
For our Background Noise Masking subtest, I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes (56, 62, and 68 dBA). At our quiet audio (56 dB), every setting was masked except high – on high, my partner could just barely make out a low hum, and only when I held still. Once I started moving, even high became hard to discern.
At our moderate and loud volumes, every setting was fully masked. It’s also worth noting that every wearable I’ve tested, including the Moxie+, is audible in a fully silent room (no pink noise playing) – no matter how gentle and quiet its vibrations are.
For the closed-door test, my partner listens directly outside our bedroom door while I use the toy in bed. I use it as a handheld since wearing dampens sound and some people want the flexibility to safely re-position the toy or move it around – holding gives the most conservative results. My partner could not hear the Moxie+ on any power level.
It’s worth noting that the Moxie+ is quieter than the original Moxie. We’re uncertain whether that is a design upgrade, or if the Moxie just grew lounder over time.
If you want a panty vibrator that was fully masked by our quietest tested background level (56 dBA), consider the NS Novelties Techno Lucy (app-controlled) or VeDO Niki (remote-controlled).
The Flexer is very loud. The vibrations are high-pitched and buzzy, and the flex motor adds a distinct non-constant mechanical sound that draws attention.
Decibel readings were 49.7 dBA on low and 54.7 dBA on high. Those numbers are not extreme, but the high-pitched, uneven sound makes it easier to hear.
In our background noise masking test, I wear the toy while my partner listens from three feet away and we play pink noise through a speaker at quiet, moderate, and loud volumes. Even with our loudest background audio playing all the Flexer’s settings were audible – low power was barely noticeable, but middle and high were still unmistakable.
We also check whether my partner can hear me use it behind our closed bedroom door. The middle and high powers were audible. A box fan helped enough that high power was barely audible and probably would not be noticed in normal use. To be completely masked, I had to play music in the bedroom.
If you want dual-stimulation from motion that’s quieter, consider the Lelo Ida Wave.
Battery Life
The Moxie+ has decent battery life – 85 minutes on its highest power in our test. If you specifically want a long battery life, go with the Lovense Ferri which lasted nearly twice as long (168 minutes).
The Lovense Flexer has a great battery life, lasting 95 minutes on high in our test. That’s comparable with or better than other dual-stimulation wearables, and plenty for most in-bed or long-distance sessions.
Cleaning
The We-Vibe Moxie+ is fully IPX7 waterproof, so it’s very easy to clean. You can run it under a faucet or fully submerge it in soapy water without worry.
The Flexer is IPX7 waterproof and easy to clean with soap and water. You can rinse it thoroughly after use, including at the hinge, where the internal and external arms meet.
Build Quality
The Moxie+ is solidly built. The body is nearly identical to the original We-Vibe Moxie – a smooth silicone coating over a firm core, with a moderate-strength magnet holding it to your underwear. The on-toy button is the older We-Vibe design, harder to press than the buttons on newer toys but still workable.
The Flexer feels sturdy and well-built. I’ve had mine since 2022 and it’s still working how it did when I first got it.
It is covered in smooth, firm silicone, and the connecting arm between the internal and external sections is very strong. The flexing movement comes from the motor, not from the toy feeling floppy or manually bendable.
That rigidity contributes to the comfort problems, but it also makes the toy feel durable.
My main frustration with the build has to do with noise. The flex motor can be especially high-pitched in a cheap-sounding way. It’s not as quiet as premium options like the Lelo Ida Wave.
