The couple's original rules were that they would "play" as a pair or Olivia would "play" individually, with Gage never doing it alone.
However, after seven years of swinging, they described their current attitude as "free-flowing, very fluid", and having "100% communication".

App users are also unable to screenshot or share another person's photos.
They explained that the app was their way of "modernising the lifestyle".
The couple regularly host swingers parties that range between 150 to 300 people to help others meet each other.
