End the “I don't mind, you choose” loop
Ask a group where to eat and everyone is polite: “anything is fine”. Ask them to swipe, and real preferences appear in a minute.
You list the options as cards — films, restaurants, holiday spots, names for a pet — and send one link. Each person swipes every card right for yes or left for no, privately and at their own pace.
When the swipes are in, the options everybody said yes to come out as matches. If there is no full agreement, the ranking shows which option came closest.
How to decide by swiping
Set it up once, then let the cards do the arguing.
Write the question and add the options, one per card; paste a whole list if you have one.
Add a picture to any card: a film poster, a photo of the restaurant, a beach.
Sign in, turn the cards into a link and drop it in the group chat.
Everyone swipes; open the link to see the matches and how each option did.
What you get
A decision tool that feels like a game, not a form.
- Up to 40 cards, each with a label and an optional picture
- Drag, tap the heart or the cross, or use the arrow keys
- An undo button for the card you swiped by mistake
- Cards shuffled for each person, so the first option has no head start
- Matches: the options every voter liked
- A ranking of all options with who said yes
- Friends only type a name; no account needed
- Closing the vote once the decision is made
Good for
Any choice where the group keeps saying “whatever you want”.
Choosing a film or a series for movie night.
Picking a restaurant or a takeaway.
Shortlisting a holiday destination or an Airbnb.
Naming a baby, a pet or a team.
Choosing a gift the whole group will chip in for.
How matches are counted
A match is an option that every person who swiped said yes to. One no from anyone, and it drops out of the matches but stays in the ranking.
The ranking orders options by yes answers; ties go to the one with fewer no answers, then to the author's order. Each person has one set of swipes, and swiping again replaces it.
Worth knowing
Names and swipes are visible to everyone with the link, so the group can see who wanted what.
You need an account to create the cards; the people swiping do not.
A match needs at least one swipe. With one voter, every yes is a match.
Tips
- Eight to fifteen cards is the sweet spot; forty takes a while to swipe.
- Pictures make swiping faster, especially for films and places.
- Keep the shuffle on so the first card does not win by default.
Swipe to decide questions
Do friends need to install anything to swipe?
No. The link opens in any phone browser, and they only type a name before the first card.
What if nobody agrees on anything?
Then there are no matches, and the ranking shows the options with the most yes answers at the top.
Can someone change their swipes?
Yes. Swiping again from the same browser replaces their earlier answers.
How many options can I add?
Up to 40 cards, each with a label of up to 80 characters and an optional picture.
Can I swipe on my own cards?
Yes. The author can swipe too and is counted like everyone else.
Does it cost anything to make a swipe vote?
No, it is free, and the people swiping never see ads or sign-up forms.
