Feeld,nh?ng kênh phim khiêu dam n?i ti?ng an app for sexual explorationaimed at singles and couples, announced a co-created rebrand for its ninth anniversary. The app has reinvented itself before — initially it was called 3nderwhen it launched in 2014 and focused on threesomes — but the Feeld of today is different, marked by curiosity and exploration of all stripes, not just couples looking for their "unicorn" (third).
In conversations with users, personal transformation and embracing curiosity were running themes throughout the rebrand process, according to Feeld's press release, and these two themes inspired the new look and feel of the app. Updates to the Feeld app will occur in the coming days.

Over the course of a year, people on Feeld branch out and specify their different fantasies. Feeld users have a 42 percent increase in desire for bondage; 33 percent for FFM (two women, one man) threesomes; 85 percent increase in "fun"; 26 percent increase in a friends with benefits situation; 58 percent increase in signaling being "GGG"("good, giving, and game," a phrase created by sex columnist Dan Savage); 15 percent increase in an MFM threesome and 32 percent increase in MMF threesomes (though Feeld didn't specify the difference between the two); and 20 percent increase in finding switches (those who can be either a Dom or sub, or top or bottom).

Feeld's new look and feel. Credit: Feeld The new look of Feeld includes "aura" visuals to invoke a sense of self-discovery. This was both inspired by these user experiences and the concept of pareidolia, or the phenomenon of deriving meaning out of a random or ambiguous visual pattern, according to the press release. The new logo and typeface was designed by artist and Feeld community member Charlotte Rhodes. In keeping with the transformative theme, the logo symbolizes fluidity and tactility of the app community.
Additionally, Feeld is planning a 24-hour party to celebrate the rebrand. The app has already moved into IRL events with Feeld Socials, and now the app will mark this new chapter with a "global event" in New York, Los Angeles, London, Berlin, Melbourne, and Sydney.
