YouPorn has decided to create a TikTok-like app, but for porn.
The app, YouPorn SWYP, basically offers you a scrolling collection of short previews to the adult videos on the popular pornography website. If you swipe up, you’ll move to the next preview. Find something you like, swipe left, and you’ll be taken to the full video.
“At YouPorn, we are always trying to help our users discover their ideal adult entertainment experience,” YouPorn VP Charlie Hughes said in today’s announcement. “Now with the addition of YouPorn SWYP, it is easier than ever for users to explore content based on their specific interests.”
Hughes hopes the new app will offer a more “visually enticing” way to enjoy the website’s videos. However, YouPorn doesn’t want you to scroll through the previews endlessly. As you find videos to select and watch, the app will try to guess your preferences, and suggest others videos you may like.
“In this mode, YouPorn provides a clean interface free of visual distractions, as only one video thumbnail is shown at a time. In addition, video previews play automatically once displayed on the screen, so no need to click play time after time,” the website said.

The bad news for fans is that YouPorn doesn’t have a standalone app on Google Play or Apple’s App Store due to their strict policies against pornographic content. As a result, the website created YouPorn SWYP as a web-based app, which uses the Chrome or Safari browser in your mobile phone to launch the service.
You can access YouPorn SWYP with this link. Despite being a web app, you can still create an app icon for the service on your phone’s home screen. The app will also let you sign in with an existing YouPorn account to save your preferences.
