It's a way to connect with folks on a deeper level, even if you're not physically together. And hey, who doesn't love a little teasing and digital foreplay before a long-awaited meeting?The motivations for sexting are as varied as the act itself. Whether you're single and ravenous for some sexy screen time with a stranger, hoping to find a regular sexting buddy, in a long-distance relationship and keeping the passion alive through virtual sex, or want to amp up your solo sex toy sessions with steamy instructions from an AI companion, mastering the act (art?) of sexting leads to a more fulfilling physical and emotional experience.Now, we're not talking about flirting with your crush on Facebook Messenger or sliding into someone's DMs on Instagram uninvited (cringe!). We're talking about good old-fashioned dirty talk with a modern twist. Think video chat, sexy snaps, and disappearing messages to keep your private information safe. We made a lot of accounts to test the best sexting apps, and we've gathered our favorites below. (You might even recognize some from our guides to the best dating apps and hookup apps.)Once viewed as taboo, sexting is becoming a mainstream way to communicate your desires\n \n \n\n\n \n \n \n Credit: Zain Bin Awais \/ Mashable\n \n \nA 2023 survey found that 77 percent of U.S. adults have sent at least one sext. Other research surveys have found even higher rates of sexting. Millennials are leading the charge, but they're definitely not alone in sending those naughty messages and nudes. As messaging apps get more advanced and our society gets more sex-positive, sexting has entered the mainstream in a big way.\n SEE ALSO:\n \n The cherry emoji and 14 other emoji you can use to sext\n \n \n \nSexting isn't just a saucy way to get off; it's a great tool for building trust and intimacy. It's a chance to share your fantasies and explore your desires in a safe and consensual way. Plus, it can help you and your partner feel more connected, especially in long-distance relationships. (Think of it as foreplay for the next time you do get together IRL.) Getting started with sexting appsFor some, just the thought of sending an explicit message or racy photo can be intimidating. (And that's OK!) Fortunately, there are so many apps and resources out there to help the most novice sexters feel empowered and confident. If you need some inspiration or tips, Mashable's Beginner's Guide To Sexting is a good place to start. Just remember: Sexting is supposed to be consensual, fun, and sexy.To help you find the right app for your sexting style, we've narrowed down the best options in 2024. Based on our research and hands-on testing (yes, we really used them all), these are the top contenders for the best sexting apps of

Unsolicited dirty talk in the DMs is a major red flag.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Find an app that prioritizes user privacy: <\/strong>Privacy is often marketed as a priority for most sexting and dating apps, but not all apps are comparable from a security standpoint.

And, if you're <em>really <\/em>worried, look for an app that features a screenshot protection option to prevent any potentially embarrassing or harmful images from being shared without your consent.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Think twice before including your face or other identifiable features:<\/strong> While it may be tempting to add a personal touch to your explicit photos or videos, it's best to keep identifiable features hidden if you're engaging in anonymous sexting or if you just met the person online. This can help protect your identity and reduce the risk of your intimate content being shared without your consent.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"What are the benefits of sexting?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p>Real-life dating is obviously the best way to get to know somebody long-term, especially if you're looking for a <a href=\"https:\/\/mashable.com\/roundup\/best-dating-sites-for-serious-relationships\" target=\"_self\" data-ga-click=\"1\" data-ga-label=\"$text\" data-ga-item=\"text-link\" data-ga-module=\"content_body\">serious relationship<\/a>. And real sex will almost always be better than sexting. <em>However,<\/em> sexting is an alternative that may benefit you in ways you didn't even think about.<\/p><ul><li><p><strong>Foreplay: <\/strong>This is perhaps the most traditional benefit of sexting. When you and your partner can't be together in person (yet), sexting lets you flirt in anticipation of meeting. The more you sext, and the dirtier the dirty talk, the more the tension will build. And when you finally get together, you'll be ready to rip each other's clothes off.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Convenience:<\/strong> Whether you plan to wine and dine on your date or just hook up, meeting IRL always requires some extra effort. For those with super hectic schedules or those who just don't have room in their life (for whatever reason) for a steady in-person relationship, sexting is practically a saving grace. After all, your sex drive doesn't go away just because you're busy. Sexting allows you to take care of your sexual needs without putting yourself all the way out there.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Freedom: <\/strong>As is the case with most behind-the-screen activities, with sexting, you can let go of your inhibitions and get comfortable exploring your sexual side. Knowing there's a certain barrier between you and the other person may allow you to experiment with language and ideas that you wouldn't otherwise explore in person.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Safety: <\/strong>Sexting can come with some privacy risks, depending on the platform you do it on. But to its credit, sexting offers an element of safety that in-person meetings don't. Sexting allows you to interact with both people you know and total strangers without putting yourself in dangerous or unwanted physical situations. Your experience should always be what you want it to be, and if a sexting session isn't going in the direction you want, it's just a matter of closing an app.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Exploring trust and intimacy:<\/strong> Getting comfortable with another person in close quarters doesn’t always come naturally for everyone — but opting for sexting gives way to a new level of exploration in terms of intimacy and trust. You don’t ever have to meet the person behind the screen if you don’t want to, but being able to practice feeling vulnerable without any strings attached can be a great lesson in being more open.<\/p><\/li><li><p><strong>Fun:<\/strong> Let’s be honest for a second here. A night of sexting is always going to be a lot more fun than endlessly swiping right on a dating app and starting the same conversation over and over. Having the option of opening an app on your phone and engaging in a little virtual foreplay offers instant gratification and (almost) guaranteed pleasure.<\/p><\/li><\/ul>"}},{"@type":"Question","name":"Where to sext online?","acceptedAnswer":{"@type":"Answer","text":"<p>Sexting is NSFW, which means you may not want to use your public Facebook profile or work computer to send steamy messages.

And, like the other apps on this list, Snapchat sends screenshot notifications, so you can send bae a brief glimpse of the goods without worrying if they’re secretly showing it to others behind your back.</p><p>Last May, Snapchat released chat editing (which lets you edit chats for up to five minutes after sending), emoji reactions, and AI reminders. Plus, there are some new AI lenses, including a '90s-themed lens, which makes me a little sad — were the '90s <em>really </em>that long ago?</p><p>While Snapchat offers disappearing messages and screenshot notifications, it's not risk-free. You could accidentally send a hot-and-heavy snap to the wrong person or worse — post to your story.</p><p>In addition to human error causing a potential disaster, Facebook and Mark Zuckerberg have <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2024/03/26/facebook-secret-project-snooped-snapchat-user-traffic/" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">been in the news</a> for targeting Snapchat's secrets through "Project Ghostbusters." As <a href="https://mashable.com/article/facebook-snapchat-data-project-ghostbusters-mark-zuckerberg" target="_self" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body">Mashable</a> reported, the project let Facebook decrypt Snapchat's network traffic to get a competitive edge over the popular messaging app. Facebook couldn't snoop on messages or photos, but the company used software on users' smartphones to secretly measure Snapchat usage data. </p><p>Even though the actual project dates back to 2016, Project Ghostbusters was only recently revealed in documents unsealed as part of a class action lawsuit against Meta. So, if privacy is your top concern, Snapchat is not going to be your app. Remember that sexting is only as secure as the platform you're using — or the person on the other end of the conversation.</p>

This app is easily one of the top options for message security and privacy. (It's also a good alternative to <a href="https://zdcs.link/R6pjK?pageview_type=Standard&template=roundup&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=Wickr%20Me&object_type=roundup&object_uuid=05Ljhu3H5ZsnCv3uTjIvHDl&short_url=R6pjK&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Froundup%2Fbest-sexting-apps" rel="sponsored" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">Wickr Me</a>, which <a href="https://www.pcmag.com/news/amazon-owned-secure-messaging-app-wickr-me-to-shut-down" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">shut down</a> on December 31, 2023.)  </p><p>Messages vanish after 24 hours, no questions asked. Whether they've been read or not, they're history. And if you're worried about those late-night texts haunting you, DUST lets you erase messages from your device <em>and</em> your recipient's. As a security bonus, your username is never visible on the message screen. No self-identifying information is required to sign up, nor is anything permanently stored. </p><p>It's worth noting that DUST <em>does</em> prevent screenshots on Android devices in some areas of the app. However, for other operating systems, such as iOS, anyone can still capture and save what you send. Keep that in mind and exercise caution if you use a non-Android device.</p> </div> <div class="py-6 mx-2 border-t-2 border-gray-100"> <div class="flex justify-between items-center pr-2 cursor-pointer"

Unlike its poorly designed competitors (like Character AI, Muah AI, and Kupid AI), which often produce awkward or nonsensical responses, Candy.ai's technology is advanced enough for you to have convincing chats with your AI companions.</p><p>This sexting site gives you the power to explore your fantasies however you want with your fantasy<em> </em>partner. You can create a virtual companion of your own, customizing the way they look, their career, and their sex drive. The only downside is that you'll need to upgrade to enjoy the best (and naughtiest) features. The premium membership is $19.99 per month (but there's usually a discount running, so it's <em>really </em>around $12.99), and with it you'll be able to listen to AI voice messages, make AI phone calls, remove the image blur (oh la la), and enjoy unlimited sexy text messages. </p><p>If you'd rather not waste time creating a character (or paying money to chat), you can choose from a selection of pre-designed virtual companions, including anime characters. It's free to start sexting with any of the models on the site, but additional features like receiving explicit photos or getting naughty voice messages will cost you extra.</p><p>Critics worry there's a dark side to AI companions, especially for lonely young <a href="https://www.nytimes.com/2024/10/23/technology/characterai-lawsuit-teen-suicide.html" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">people struggling with mental health issues</a>.

for:</h3><p>If you've ever dreamed of exchanging sexy messages, photos, or videos with your favorite porn stars or cam models, then you need to know about SextPanther. This paid sexting app lets you exchange racy messages and start video chats with real adult performers.</p><h3>Why we picked this:</h3><p>We hate to break it to you, but your favorite adult performer is never going to respond to your unsolicited messages (if they do, there's approximately a 100% chance you're being catfished). Instead of sliding into her DMs, try SextPanther, a pay-to-play sexting service.</p><p>Paid sexting apps and sites are a relatively new phenomenon, but this niche is growing fast. It's similar in concept to OnlyFans, except instead of a monthly subscription, SextPanther lets you pay to send and receive messages from adult performers, dommes, and kinky companions. The site has even attracted some well-known names in the porn world, meaning you can turn your fantasies into reality — for a price.</p><p>SextPanther lets performers set their own chat rates. So, when you find someone you want to chat with, you will see prices for text messages, audio notes, pictures, and video chats. If the performer is online, you can start sexting right away.</p><p>Some users will appreciate the transactional nature of SextPanther. With this app, you know exactly what you're getting. The site <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2020/01/24/sexting-site-sextpanther-data-exposed/" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">has had security challenges in the past</a> (some performers' personal information was left vulnerable, though no user data was ever compromised). However, based on the recent popularity of the site and the vast number of models available for sexy chats, we think it's the best chat service of its kind.</p> </div> <div class="py-6 mx-2 border-t-2

catching a date; it's also a great place to find a potential sexting partner. With its large user base and active community, you're bound to find someone interested in sharing an intimate moment. POF is a place where you can cast your net wide and connect with someone on the same page, whether you're looking for a casual fling or occasional phone sex.</p><h3>Why we picked this: </h3><p>POF reeled us in with its whopping 150 million registered users worldwide. Yes, you read that right — this sea's teeming with potential matches. And chances are, some are looking for a sexting experience like you.</p><p>Even if you're <em>not </em>here for sexting and are more interested in casual dating or a serious relationship, POF's intro survey lets you be upfront about your intentions right from the get-go. Choosing "<a href="https://mashable.com/roundup/best-hookup-apps" target="_self" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body">something casual/no commitment</a>" pops you into a pool of other daters who are open to exploring what's out there, which could include sending nudes, phone sex, or more intimate conversations.</p><p>Plus, POF knows how to keep things discreet. It doesn't require you to connect to any social media when signing up. You don't even have to use your real name if you don't want to; a username will suffice. Once your profile is created, you can search random profiles based on the criteria of your choice, use their UltraMatch feature, which matches you based on compatibility, their “meet me” feature, which is the dating site's hot-or-not option, or see who’s nearby. All communication between members is free, so you don't have much to lose. </p><p>On March 5, 2024, POF took a page from OkCupid's book by teaming up with Busch Light to create a Fish Pic Badge. This new feature is exactly what it sounds like: a profile badge for POF users that showcases their love for fishing (and, maybe, enjoying a cold beer).</p><p>“Our research reveals that the majority of singles (67 percent) enjoy fishing, and 70 percent would like to go fishing on a date,” Shannon Smith, PR Director, Plenty of Fish, <a

our outdoor-activity loving singles a chance to find meaningful connections over shared interests.”</p> </div> <div class="py-6 mx-2 border-t-2 border-gray-100"> <div class="flex justify-between

relationships and casual hookups, it often falls short of delivering a satisfactory experience for either group, which is exactly why it landed as a last resort on our list. However, if you're looking for a sexting buddy and aren't <em>too</em> concerned about long-term compatibility or a polished interface, Zoosk's massive user base might offer some potential.</p><h3>Why we picked this: </h3><p>Zoosk's massive user base of over 40 million singles worldwide can be deceiving, as many accounts are inactive or even fake bots. Despite its outdated interface resembling something from 2009, Zoosk does have a valuable aspect for sexting: the photo verification factor. In a world where fake profiles and catfishing are prevalent, knowing that the person you're chatting with actually resembles their attractive pictures can elevate the excitement of your sexting experiences. And if you're looking to take things to the next level, Zoosk offers video dating, so you can connect with potential sexting buddies face-to-face (or screen-to-screen, as it were).</p><p>Unfortunately, Zoosk lacks screenshot protection, leaving your intimate exchanges vulnerable. Investing in a paid membership can alleviate concerns about encountering inactive users and wasting time on individuals who aren't fully engaged with the app. It's also worth noting that Zoosk <a

We're keeping an eye on their efforts to clean up their act, and who knows, maybe they'll earn back our recommendation someday.</em></p><p>Finding a sexting app that's fun <em>and</em> keeps your private chats <em>private</em> can be tricky. That's why we did the hard work for you. </p><p>Here's how we compiled our recommendations: </p><ul><li><p><strong>Hands-on testing: </strong>We downloaded each app, created profiles, and explored the features to give you an honest assessment of how they perform in real-life situations. That means sending messages, sharing photos (safely, of course!), and even testing out video chat.</p></li><li><p><strong>User experience: </strong>We focused on what matters: Is the app easy to use? Is it visually appealing?

Before you send an explicit image or message, check in with your partner (or potential sexting partner). Unsolicited dirty talk in the DMs is a major red flag.</p></li><li><p><strong>Find an app that prioritizes user privacy: </strong>Privacy is often marketed as a priority for most sexting and dating apps, but not all apps are comparable from a security standpoint. While some private message apps like <a href="https://zdcs.link/KYLGD?pageview_type=Standard&template=roundup&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=Confide&object_type=roundup&object_uuid=05Ljhu3H5ZsnCv3uTjIvHDl&short_url=KYLGD&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Froundup%2Fbest-sexting-apps" rel="sponsored" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">Confide</a> and <a href="https://zdcs.link/3ddB3?pageview_type=Standard&template=roundup&module=content_body&element=offer&item=text-link&element_label=DUST&object_type=roundup&object_uuid=05Ljhu3H5ZsnCv3uTjIvHDl&short_url=3ddB3&u=https%3A%2F%2Fmashable.com%2Froundup%2Fbest-sexting-apps" rel="sponsored" target="_blank" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body" title="(opens in a new window)">DUST</a> have certain features to protect user privacy, such as end-to-end encryption and self-destructing messages, this doesn't mean a person can't snap a photo using the screenshot function or record a video with another device.</p></li><li><p><strong>Be mindful of boundaries and respect them: </strong>The internet can be a <em>very </em>scary place, where fleeting moments of trust can ruin reputations and compromise personal (and sometimes professional) relationships. If someone asks you to keep something to yourself, do it. In that same vein, communicate your <a href="https://mashable.com/article/how-to-set-sexual-boundaries" target="_self" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body">boundaries</a> and expectations as well. And, if you're <em>really </em>worried, look for an app that features a screenshot protection option to prevent any potentially embarrassing or harmful images from being shared without your consent.</p></li><li><p><strong>Think twice before including your face or other identifiable features:</strong> While it may be tempting to add a personal touch to your explicit photos or videos, it's best to keep identifiable features hidden if you're engaging in anonymous sexting or if you just met the person online. This can help protect your identity and reduce the risk of your intimate content being shared without your consent.</p></li></ul></div> </div> <div x-data="{drawerOpen: false}" class="pt-4"> <hr class="w-full border border-gray-100"> <button @click="drawerOpen = !drawerOpen" class="flex mt-4 w-full"> <h3 class="text-xl font-bold text-left grow">What are the benefits of sexting?</h3> <div> <svg x-show="drawerOpen" class="inline-block w-6 h-6"><use href="/images/icons/spritemap.svg#sprite-chevron-down"></use></svg> <svg x-show="!drawerOpen" class="inline-block w-6 h-6"><use href="/images/icons/spritemap.svg#sprite-chevron-right"></use></svg> </div> </button> <div x-show="drawerOpen" class="font-serif editor-content"><p>Real-life dating is obviously the best way to get to know somebody long-term, especially if you're looking for a <a href="https://mashable.com/roundup/best-dating-sites-for-serious-relationships" target="_self" data-ga-click="1" data-ga-label="$text" data-ga-item="text-link" data-ga-module="content_body">serious relationship</a>. And real sex will almost always be better than sexting. <em>However,</em> sexting is an alternative that may benefit you in ways you didn't even think about.</p><ul><li><p><strong>Foreplay: </strong>This is perhaps the most traditional benefit of sexting. When you and your partner can't be together in person (yet), sexting lets you flirt in anticipation of meeting. The more you sext, and the dirtier the dirty talk, the more the tension will build. And when you finally get together, you'll be ready to rip each other's clothes off.</p></li><li><p><strong>Convenience:</strong> Whether you plan to wine and dine on your date or just hook up, meeting IRL always requires some extra effort. For those with super hectic schedules or those who just don't have room in their life (for whatever reason) for a steady in-person relationship, sexting is practically a saving grace. After all, your sex drive doesn't go away just because you're busy. Sexting allows you to take care of your sexual needs without putting yourself all the way out there.</p></li><li><p><strong>Freedom: </strong>As is the case with most behind-the-screen activities, with sexting, you can let go of your inhibitions and get comfortable exploring your sexual side. Knowing there's a certain barrier between you and the other person may allow you to experiment with language and ideas that you wouldn't otherwise explore in person.</p></li><li><p><strong>Safety: </strong>Sexting can come with some privacy risks, depending on the platform you do it on. But to its credit, sexting offers an element of safety that in-person meetings don't. Sexting allows you to interact with both people you know and total strangers without putting yourself in dangerous or unwanted physical situations. Your experience should always be what you want it to be, and if a sexting session isn't going in the direction you want, it's just a matter of closing an app.</p></li><li><p><strong>Exploring trust and intimacy:</strong> Getting comfortable with another person in close quarters doesn’t always come naturally for everyone — but opting for sexting gives way to a new level of exploration in terms of intimacy and trust. You don’t ever have to meet the person behind the screen if you don’t want to, but being able to practice feeling vulnerable without any strings attached can be a great lesson in being more open.</p></li><li><p><strong>Fun:</strong> Let’s be honest for a second here. A night of sexting is always going to be a lot more fun than endlessly swiping right on a dating app and starting the same conversation over and over. Having the option of opening an app on your phone and engaging in a little virtual foreplay offers instant gratification and (almost) guaranteed pleasure.</p></li></ul></div> </div> <div x-data="{drawerOpen: false}" class="pt-4"> <hr class="w-full border border-gray-100"> <button @click="drawerOpen = !drawerOpen" class="flex mt-4 w-full"> <h3 class="text-xl font-bold text-left grow">Where to sext online?</h3> <div> <svg x-show="drawerOpen" class="inline-block w-6 h-6"><use href="/images/icons/spritemap.svg#sprite-chevron-down"></use></svg> <svg x-show="!drawerOpen" class="inline-block w-6 h-6"><use href="/images/icons/spritemap.svg#sprite-chevron-right"></use></svg> </div> </button> <div x-show="drawerOpen" class="font-serif editor-content"><p>Sexting is NSFW, which means you may not want to use your public Facebook profile or work computer to send steamy messages.
