Swipe date ideas

A date idea generator that decides for you

Stuck for date night ideas, or for things to do together at the weekend? Instead of scrolling lists, let the deck deal you one date idea at a time. Swipe right on the ones you like, left on the ones you don't, and within a few minutes you have a shortlist to choose from, or just take the first one you both said yes to.

How it works

Swipe to decide. Each card is one date: what to do, where it is, when it's on and what it costs. Swipe right (or tap Save) to keep it, left (or Skip) to see the next.

Share it with your date. Share sends a link that opens the deck on the same card, so the other person can say yes too.

Keep the ones you like. Saved ideas stay under the deck and on the map. Sign in and they're kept in My Places on every device.

Filter by the kind of date. Food and drink, shows and music, on the water, views and climbs, making something together, or ideas for couples.

Where the date ideas come from

Every idea of ours names a real place and was checked on its official website: what it is, when it's on and what it costs, with a link to that website and the date it was checked. Ideas with an end date leave the deck once they finish. Photos come from Wikimedia Commons and are credited on each card. Mixed in are bookable tours and experiences, clearly marked, with today's prices.
