Create a Control Link
Premium creators and Premium viewers can create outgoing control links from Control links (/control-links). The manager shows Active, Outgoing, and Expired sections.
Open the manager
- Sign in and confirm Premium (see Why Is a Feature Locked?).
- Open Control links (
/control-links). - Click + New Control Link.
Free accounts see an inbox-only view: links assigned to you, plus an upgrade prompt to create outgoing links.
Create a link
In the create modal:
- Recipient: pick a connection or choose Guest Link for a shareable URL.
- Duration: session length in minutes.
- Label: optional name (for example “VIP tier reward”).
- Pause allowed: when on, the redeemer can pause and resume before expiry.
Save the link. Guest links show a copyable /redeem/{token} URL. Assigned links appear in the recipient's inbox when they sign in.
While a session is active
Active Control Link lists redeemed links with live sessions. From each card you can:
- End session: stop control immediately
- Edit: adjust metadata where allowed
- Revoke: invalidate unused links
Toggle Show expired links in the toolbar to hide or show old redeemed/expired entries.

Troubleshooting
| Problem | What to try |
|---|---|
| + New Control Link missing | Upgrade to Premium; viewers need Premium for outgoing links |
| Redeemer sees offline toys | Connect Lovense on /toys and Sync toys |
| Link already used | Create a fresh link or check expired list |
| Queue never clears | End the active session from Active Control Link |
