I'm bored
Use the activity picker with a preset or paste your own list of realistic ideas.
What Should I Do, Eat or Watch?
Free decision tools for low-stakes everyday choices. Pick what to do, what to eat, what to watch, which option wins, or whether to say yes/no. No sign-up, no download, works on phones, projectors and group chats.
Fast rule: if every option is acceptable, use a random picker. If the group should choose, use a poll. If there are only two options, use a coin flip or yes/no wheel. If the decision has real consequences, use judgement instead of randomness.

Common what-should-I moments
Dinner is stuck
Use a dinner shortlist when everyone can accept any option, or use a poll if people have preferences.
Movie night is endless scrolling
Paste films you can actually watch, then pick one and stop negotiating.
The group cannot agree
Vote when preference matters. Randomize only after the group accepts the shortlist.
There are two choices
Use a coin flip or yes/no wheel for quick, visible tie-breaks.
There is a list of options
Paste any list into a picker, spinner or shuffler depending on whether you need one winner or a full order.
When randomness helps
Random choice is best when the decision is reversible, low-stakes and all options are acceptable. It helps break deadlocks, reduce overthinking and make a group process feel fair. It is not a replacement for expertise, consent, safety checks or personal judgement.

What should I tools FAQ
What should I use when I cannot decide?
Use a random picker when every option is acceptable and you just need momentum. Use a poll when the group should decide. Use a coin flip or yes/no wheel for two-choice decisions.
Can Spinnit decide what I should do, eat or watch?
Spinnit can pick from your list or a preset list. It does not know your full context, so only include options that are safe, available and realistic.
Should I use random tools for important decisions?
No. Random tools are best for low-stakes choices such as activities, dinner, movies, games, turns and tie-breaks. Do not use them as the sole basis for medical, legal, financial or safety decisions.
