iPhone App Rates Sexual Performance

by Leila Brillson on July 30, 2009 at 07:30 AM


We've got apps to shake babies, apps that mimic bodily functions, but its Chris Alvares' 'Passion' app that may be the strangest, most illicit application designed for the iPhone.

Using the microphone and the accelerometer, Alverez set out to design a program that measures an activity that (hopefully) uses a fair amount of sound and movement: sex. Those curious about their performance can strap their iPhone to a belt or armband and do the deed, and the device rates the act. Factors considered are duration, activity, and climax, combining to give a reading measured out of ten. For the self-conscious, users can upload their score and compare their performance to others.

No doubt that this application will certainly garner support from Lotharios who want to see how they measure up, but if this (warning: hilariously disturbing) turtle taught us anything, noise and motion don't necessarily translate to satisfaction. Usually we end posts like these with a witty observation or snide comment, but this is an iPhone application that measures how well you do in bed. We can't really top that. [From: Telegraph.co.uk]
