CHINO, Calif., June 24, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Honey Play Box just redefined the wellness industry with the release of KAI PRO. Far from a basic pleasure device for males, KAI PRO is setting the standard for next-generation connected intimacy technology. As part of the broader Honey Play Box digital ecosystem, this device is designed to deliver a highly personalized and synchronized user experience.

App-connected wellness devices are changing how people interact with personal technology and stay connected in their relationships. By combining state-of-the-art hardware with cutting-edge mobile technology, modern intimacy devices allow users to explore new sensations, and even interact with partners across distances.

Consumers want products that easily fit into their everyday routines. According to a study published in PLOS One, wellness devices like smartwatches and fitness trackers are more popular than ever. The market is also expected to see continued growth across different industries over the next few years. As these types of products evolve, the demand for comprehensive digital ecosystems is increasing. Not only can consumers use digital apps to track their health, but they can also use them to customize their experiences, receive personalized feedback, and connect with each other. To meet this demand, leading wellness companies are building ecosystems that deliver a seamless experience.

Honey Play Box, a pleasure tech brand with a proven track record for innovation, is spearheading this evolution. Over the years, the company has been dedicated to making interactive intimacy more accessible than ever by creating products that blend functionality, design, and connectivity. Its latest innovation, KAI PRO, takes that idea even further.

The Honey Play Box Digital Ecosystem for Connected App Experiences

What really sets KAI PRO apart from other male pleasure devices is its app connectivity, as it’s the first male toy from Honey Play Box that can be controlled via the Honey Play Box app. This is especially beneficial for long-distance couples, which are more common than ever thanks to dating apps and online connections, but maintaining intimacy from miles away can still be a challenge. KAI PRO is designed to make remote play feel more interactive through two-way control, allowing partners to stay intimately connected no matter where they are. After downloading the free Honey Play Box app and pairing the device with Bluetooth, users can share a control link with their partner, giving them the ability to adjust vibration patterns, suction intensity, and other settings from afar.

When paired with any of the brand’s other app-controlled pleasure devices, KAI PRO unlocks the door for immersive long-distance two-way play. For instance, if one partner has NOCTURA and the other has KAI PRO, they can exchange control links through the app and sync their toys. The Honey Play Box app also features a video chat function, so users can see each other while they share these intimate moments. Couples can now connect and control each other’s pleasure in real time, no matter the distance. Honey Play Box also offers split shipping, so couples can send items from the same order to different addresses.

Personal Wellness and Shared Connection

KAI PRO’s app-controllability also opens up a multitude of possibilities for solo wellness practices and close-range partner interaction. Users can customize their experiences by creating their own vibration patterns,  controlling the device remotely through the app, and syncing it to their favorite music. The app also allows connected devices to be controlled with voice commands, for a real hands-free experience. A state-of-the-art Bluetooth chip provides a stable connection between the device and the Honey Play Box app for a truly seamless experience.

But it’s not just couples who will enjoy this groundbreaking product. One of the most innovative features of the brand’s digital ecosystem is the AI Companion. Through the app, users can discuss sexual health, relationships, body responses, and pleasure with this virtual assistant. An AI partner can also react to user commands and take control of the device for an added level of interactivity.

The Shift Toward Personalized and Connected Wellness Technology

The level of personalization offered through the Honey Play Box app is a direct response to the evolution of modern wellness technology. Users expect experiences that adapt to their unique needs, preferences, and lifestyles. One-size-fits-all pleasure devices are officially a thing of the past, as apps can now use data from hardware and user inputs to deliver tailored recommendations for overall wellbeing. This shift toward customization gives users more control over their wellness journeys and helps create experiences that feel more engaging than ever.

At the same time, there is a growing demand for connection. Devices and apps are being combined into ecosystems that let users keep track of their wellness and interact with each other all at once. This idea of connected experiences has also expanded into sexual wellness, where app-connected pleasure devices allow partners to stay connected and interact with each other from long distances. Features like remote control, real-time feedback, and personalized settings reflect a broader shift toward technology that prioritizes convenience, customization, and meaningful user experiences.

“Connected technology is reshaping how people experience personalization, interaction, and wellness within modern relationships,” said Honey Play Box CEO Shirley W.

From Standalone Devices to Interactive Digital Ecosystems

The future of connected wellness is being shaped by technological innovations that eliminate physical distances and cultivate deeper intimacy through real-time digital interaction. Long-distance pleasure devices, operated via apps, are advancing beyond simple remote capabilities. They now feature responsive controls, customizable options, and continuous connectivity, enabling partners to maintain their connection regardless of their global whereabouts. With consumers increasingly seeking personalized and interactive wellness solutions, connected intimacy products are emerging as a vital segment within the extensive sphere of wellness and relationship technology.

At the forefront of this evolution is Honey Play Box’s KAI PRO, a device that combines sophisticated engineering with intuitive app-based control. By enabling partners to share experiences remotely through secure, responsive connectivity, KAI PRO exemplifies how pleasure technology is becoming smarter, more immersive, and more relationship-focused. Its emphasis on long-distance engagement, user customization, and modern design positions it as a leading example of connected wellness evolving toward experiences that prioritize both technological innovation and meaningful human connection.

What is connected intimacy technology?

Connected intimacy technology is an app-based system that lets partners interact in real-time, even when they’re not in the same place.

How are synchronized wellness experiences evolving?

More wellness products are being paired with apps, giving users greater control over settings, customization, and remote interaction.

What is the HPB Remote App ecosystem?

The HPB Remote App lets users connect compatible Honey Play Box devices and access features like remote control, Music Sync, Voice Control, and device syncing.

Why are app-connected wellness technologies growing?

Consumers want apps and devices that feel more interactive, offer greater customization, and help them stay connected with their partners.

Honey Play Box remains committed to advancing connected wellness through innovative technology and thoughtfully personalized experiences. By combining cutting-edge, user-friendly design with a focus on individual needs and preferences, the company strives to create products that enhance well-being, foster meaningful connections, and deliver seamless, tailored experiences for every user.

The Sleep System That Understands You Best.

BERLIN, Sept. 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — DUVA, created by Fitnexa, is introducing DUVA ONE at IFA Berlin 2026. This intelligent in-ear sleep system is designed to sense changes in the user and the bedroom, then personalize audio, noise control, and device behavior throughout the night.

Most sleep wearables explain what happened after users wake up. DUVA ONE is designed to help while the night is still happening. Its low-profile earbuds, environment-sensing charging case, and app work together to determine when and how to respond.

A user might start the night with a podcast over Bluetooth. After they fall asleep, DUVA ONE can introduce locally stored sleep audio and optimize power use. If a partner begins snoring or traffic grows louder, it can adjust ANC or add sound masking. In the morning, a private offline alarm wakes only the wearer, without requiring an active phone connection.

In-ear PPG and motion sensors estimate sleep stages and track heart rate, HRV, sleep position, and movement, while the case monitors noise, light, temperature, and humidity. The AI Agent interprets these signals alongside playback status and personal preferences to select an appropriate response. Users control sleep audio, playback duration, ANC strategy, and nighttime interventions in the DUVA App.

“Sleep does not happen in a static environment, so sleep technology should not remain static either,” said Diego, Founder of Fitnexa. “DUVA ONE is designed to respond while sleep is still happening.”

Key Highlights

Layered noise relief: Passive isolation, Hybrid ANC, and sleep audio provide noise reduction of up to 42 dB, with Transparency Mode and adaptive ANC calibration.Personalized AI sleep guidance: The AI analyzes the user’s real-time sleep state and generates personalized audio guidance to help them gradually fall asleep.Side-sleeping comfort: Each fitted earbud weighs approximately 3.3 grams and has an approximately 9.9 mm low-profile design. Two ear-tip shapes and multiple tip and stabilizing-wing sizes provide more than 40 fit configurations.All-night battery: Up to 16 hours in the most power-efficient configuration, including 13 hours of local audio with ANC off and 9.5 hours with ANC on. The USB-C and wireless charging case provides up to five additional recharges.Private offline alarm: Alarms gradually increase in volume and offer 5, 10, or 15-minute snooze options through the earbud controls.Privacy-first sensing: DUVA ONE does not record conversations, store ambient audio, or upload raw environmental audio. Users can disable individual sensors and delete historical data.

DUVA ONE is planned for release in October 2026 at a target retail price of US$349.99, with target markets including the United States, Canada, the United Kingdom, the European Union, and Australia.
