If you're curious about guided audio intimacy, you're not alone. Thousands of couples are discovering that following external guidance during intimate experiences can reduce anxiety, improve presence, and create deeper connection than trying to orchestrate everything themselves.
But once you decide to try guided intimacy, the next question is: which app should you use?
The guided intimacy space is still relatively new, but several apps have emerged offering different approaches, content styles, and experiences. Some focus on solo pleasure, others on couples connection. Some offer extensive libraries, others provide curated selections. Some emphasize education, others focus purely on the experience.
We've explored the major players in this space to help you understand what's available and which app might be right for you. Full transparency: we created Coelle, so we're obviously biased toward our own app. But we'll give you honest assessments of what else is out there and what makes each option unique.
What to Look for in a Guided Intimacy App
Before diving into specific apps, here's what matters when choosing one:
Content variety: Does the app offer enough different experiences to keep things fresh, or will you exhaust the library quickly?
Couples vs. solo focus: Is the content designed for partners together, or is it primarily solo experiences that happen to work for couples?
Voice and tone: Do the voices and instruction style resonate with you? This is highly personal—what one person finds soothing, another might find irritating.
Session length and structure: Are sessions the right length for your lifestyle? Too long and you won't use them; too short and they feel rushed.
Categories and organization: Can you easily find the type of experience you want, or do you have to hunt through everything?
Price and value: Does the subscription cost make sense for what you're getting?
Privacy and security: How is your data handled? Is your usage private?
Coelle: Designed Specifically for Couples
What It Is: Coelle (full disclosure: our app) is a guided audio intimacy platform built specifically for couples who want to deepen connection, break out of patterns, and experience more presence during intimacy.
Content Approach: All content is designed for partners together, organized into four distinct categories based on what you're seeking: Slow & Sensual, Bold & Playful, Energy & Touch, and Role & Fantasy. Each session is a complete guided experience that walks both partners through the entire journey—from transition and grounding through arousal and connection to integration afterward.
What Makes It Different: The four-category framework addresses different dimensions of intimate connection rather than just offering a random collection of sessions. Whether you need deep presence, adventurous exploration, physical intensity, or psychological play, there's a clear path to the right experience.
Sessions are specifically structured to reduce decision fatigue and performance anxiety. Neither partner has to orchestrate—you're both following together, which creates equality and shared vulnerability.
The content is based on neuroscience principles about presence, arousal, and connection. It's not just "sexy talk"—it's guidance informed by understanding how the brain actually works during intimacy.
Best For: Couples who want a comprehensive system for guided intimacy with clear categories, couples dealing with routine or disconnection, partners who struggle with presence or performance anxiety, and anyone who wants sessions designed specifically for shared experience rather than adapted from solo content.
Pricing: Monthly and annual subscription options available.
Our Take: Obviously we're biased, but we built Coelle because we experienced firsthand how guided intimacy transformed our relationship and wanted to create something that addressed what we needed when we were starting out—clear structure, comprehensive content, and experiences designed for couples from the ground up.
What It Is: Dipsea offers audio stories and guided experiences, primarily focused on individual listening but with some content suitable for couples.
Content Approach: Mix of erotic audio stories (fictional narratives) and some guided experiences. Heavy emphasis on storytelling and imagination rather than instructional guidance.
What Makes It Different: The storytelling approach appeals to people who are turned on by narrative and imagination. It's more about listening to a story that arouses you than following step-by-step guidance for what to do with your partner.
Best For: Individuals looking for audio erotica, people who are turned on by stories and fantasy scenarios, those who prefer imagination-focused content over instructional guidance.
Limitations for Couples: Most content is designed for solo listening rather than partners together. The story format means you're listening to a narrative rather than being guided through an experience with your partner. Limited true "guided intimacy" content specifically structured for couples.
Our Take: If you love erotic fiction and want audio versions, Dipsea excels at that. But if you're specifically looking for guided experiences where you and your partner follow instructions together, the story format may not be what you need.
What It Is: Quinn offers audio erotica with an explicitly feminist, inclusive approach. Founded with the mission of creating ethical, diverse erotic content.
Content Approach: Primarily audio stories featuring diverse voices, bodies, and relationship styles. Some guided content, but the core focus is on narrative erotica from varied perspectives.
What Makes It Different: Strong commitment to representation, consent, and inclusive storytelling. Features LGBTQ+ content, diverse body types, and non-normative relationship structures. More politically conscious and values-driven than other apps.
Best For: People seeking inclusive, feminist erotic audio, LGBTQ+ individuals looking for representation, those who prioritize ethical content creation.
Limitations for Couples: Limited selection of true guided intimacy content designed for partners together. Most content is story-based rather than instructional. The couples-specific library is relatively small compared to solo content.
Our Take: Quinn's values and commitment to representation are commendable, and if you're looking for inclusive audio erotica that reflects diverse experiences, it's excellent. But for couples specifically seeking guided experiences to do together, the selection is limited.
What It Is: Emjoy positions itself as a sexual wellness app for women, offering audio content focused on education, self-discovery, and pleasure.
Content Approach: Mix of educational content, guided meditations for sexual wellness, and some erotic audio. Heavy emphasis on self-exploration and understanding your body.
What Makes It Different: More wellness and education-focused than purely experiential. Includes content about understanding desire, overcoming shame, and building sexual confidence alongside guided experiences.
Best For: Women who are focused on sexual wellness and education, people working through shame or body image issues, those who want learning integrated with experience.
Limitations for Couples: Primarily designed for individual use rather than partners together. The educational focus means less emphasis on couple-specific guided experiences.
Our Take: Emjoy serves an important niche for people who need to work on their individual sexual wellness before focusing on partnered experiences. But if you're specifically looking for couples-focused guided intimacy, it's not the primary use case.
What It Is: Bloom offers "literary quality" audio erotica—well-written, professionally narrated stories designed to be arousing and intellectually engaging.
Content Approach: Focus on high-quality storytelling with diverse scenarios and characters. Emphasis on the literary quality of the writing and professional voice acting.
What Makes It Different: Positions itself as "smart" erotica for people who care about good writing, not just explicit content. Stories are longer and more developed than typical audio erotica.
Best For: People who want well-crafted stories, readers of literary fiction who want audio versions, those who need intellectual engagement alongside arousal.
Limitations for Couples: Very limited selection of content specifically designed for couples to experience together. The story format means you're passive listeners rather than active participants following guidance. Smaller overall library compared to other apps.
Our Take: If you appreciate good writing and want audiobook-quality erotic stories, Bloom delivers. But for guided intimacy where you're actually doing something together rather than just listening to a story, the options are sparse.
What It Is: Ferly offers audio content for sexual wellbeing, grounded in sexology and psychology research.
Content Approach: Mix of education, guided meditations for sexual wellness, and some intimate experiences. Strong emphasis on the science behind sexuality and pleasure.
What Makes It Different: Research-backed approach to sexual wellness, created by experts in sexology and psychology. More clinical and educational foundation than other apps.
Best For: People who want science-backed content, individuals working through specific sexual concerns or dysfunctions, those who trust expert-designed content.
Limitations for Couples: Primarily focused on individual sexual wellbeing rather than couple experiences. The clinical approach may feel less romantic or sensual than other options.
Our Take: Ferly's scientific foundation is its strength for people dealing with specific challenges. But if you're looking for romantically engaging couple experiences rather than clinical sexual wellness content, it may feel too educational.
How to Choose the Right App for You
If you want comprehensive guided experiences specifically designed for couples: Coelle offers the most extensive, purpose-built library organized into clear categories.
If you prefer story-based content over instructional guidance: Dipsea or Bloom Stories provide high-quality audio erotica.
If inclusive representation is your priority: Quinn centers diverse voices and experiences.
If you're working on individual sexual wellness: Emjoy or Ferly focus on personal healing and growth.
If you want education alongside experience: Ferly is great since it integrates learning with audio content.
If you want to try multiple apps: Many offer free trials or limited free content. Try a few to see which voice, style, and approach resonate with you.
What We Believe About Guided Intimacy
We created Coelle because we believe guided intimacy works best when it's designed specifically for couples, when it addresses the full spectrum of intimate connection (not just one dimension), and when it's built on understanding of how the brain actually works during intimacy.
We also believe that the more options couples have, the better. Different apps serve different needs, and we're glad these alternatives exist even though we think Coelle offers the most comprehensive approach specifically for couples seeking guided experiences.
The most important thing is that you're exploring guided intimacy at all—whichever app helps you do that is the right choice.
Getting Started
Try Coelle first if: You want the most comprehensive couples-focused option with clear categories and extensive content designed specifically for partners together.
Try other apps if: You prefer stories over guidance, need individual sexual wellness work first, or want to explore what else is available.
Try multiple apps if: You're not sure what style will resonate and want to compare approaches.
Most apps offer trials or limited free access, so you can explore before committing. The investment in your intimate connection is worth the time to find what actually works for you.
