Je Joue Nuo v2.0 Vibrating Butt Plug

The Je Joue Nuo v2.0 is a vibrating butt plug with two motors and app control, made in silicone with a flat base. It suits anyone who has tried a basic plug and wants more than the feeling of fullness: one motor sits in the curved head, the other in the base, so you feel vibration both inside and against the outside. Je Joue tunes its motors to a low frequency, which gives a deep rumble rather than a high, tickly buzz.

Size and shape

The Nuo has 4 inches of insertable length and is 1.25 inches across at its widest. That's a moderate size: comfortable for most people who have used a small starter plug, but more than a true first-timer may want. The shaft is flexible and gently curved, so it follows the body rather than pressing straight back. In a person with a prostate, the curve angles toward it; for others, the vibration spreads through the surrounding nerves. The flat base keeps it from slipping in further and sits neatly between the cheeks. Unsure about the size? Measure a plug you already own across its widest point and from tip to base, then compare.

Using the app

The v2.0 is controlled with the free Je Joue app for iPhone and Android. It gives you five speeds and seven patterns to work with. The app also has a playlist feature, so you can line up patterns in sequence, and it lets a partner run the plug from somewhere else, which opens up long-distance play. Wearing it out of the house is possible too, though with any app-controlled butt plug, test the connection at home before relying on it.

First sessions with a vibrating anal plug

Go to the bathroom first, relax and use plenty of lube on both the plug and yourself. Insert it slowly with the motors off, breathing out as the widest part passes, and wait until you feel settled. Then start on the lowest speed. Lying on your side with your knees drawn up is an easy position for the first time. If anything hurts, stop; discomfort is a sign to slow down, use more lube or try a smaller plug.

Lube, cleaning and charging

Use a water-based lube; silicone lube can damage silicone toys. The Nuo is fully waterproof, so after use you can wash it thoroughly with warm water and mild soap or a toy cleaner. Charge it by USB; a full charge takes about two hours. Je Joue says it runs at under 50 dB, which is quiet enough to be muffled by clothing.

Nuo v2.0 or v1.2?

The earlier Nuo v1.2 was sold with a pen-shaped remote as well as the app. The v2.0 listing describes app control, so if you'd rather have a physical remote, check the v1.2.
