What Should I Do Wheel
Pick an Activity That Fits Right Now
Tell the wheel how much time and energy you have, then choose from activities that actually fit the moment. It helps turn a vague 'what should I do?' into a shorter list of realistic ideas.
Quick Setup
Set your time, energy and indoor or outdoor preference, then spin for an activity.
How to Use It
-
1. Tell the wheel what fits
Choose how much time you have, how energetic you feel and whether you want to stay in or go out.
-
2. Check the activity list
The wheel removes ideas that do not fit those choices, and you can add your own activities if you want the list to feel more personal.
-
3. Spin for something to do
Spin for one activity. If the result no longer works, change the filters or the list before you spin again.

More Useful Guidance
Narrow the ideas before leaving it to chance
The hardest part of choosing an activity is often that the list is too broad. Time, energy and indoor or outdoor filters remove ideas that do not fit the moment. Once that shortlist feels realistic, the wheel only has to make the final choice rather than pretending every possible activity is equally practical today.
Example: one free hour after work
Choose roughly one hour, select a low or medium energy level and decide whether you want to stay indoors. The wheel might narrow the list to reading, baking, a short workout or a film episode. If one option is not realistically available tonight, remove it before spinning instead of ignoring the result afterwards.
Use your own ideas as well
The built-in activities are only a starting point. Add local walks, hobbies, favourite games, family activities or places you actually visit. The closer the choices are to things you would really do, the more useful the result becomes. A shorter realistic list is usually better than a huge generic one.
Activity Wheel vs Random Choice Picker
Use the activity wheel when you need ideas and want to narrow them by time, energy and whether you want to be indoors or outside. Random Choice Picker is better when you already know the exact activities you are choosing between. Spin the Wheel is another option when you only want your own custom list.
How the Result Is Chosen
Fair selection
Every activity left after your filters has the same chance. The tool does not rank one activity as 'better' than another.
Privacy
Your choices stay on the device and the tool does not need your location.
Common Questions
What if nothing matches my filters?
Relax one of the filters or add your own activity so the wheel has something suitable to choose from.
Can I add my own activities?
Yes. Add hobbies, local places or anything else you would genuinely consider doing.
Does the tool rank the best activity?
No. It makes a random choice from the activities that fit your settings.
Can I use it for date ideas?
Yes. The time, energy and location filters work well for simple date-night decisions.
Can I use it for family activities?
Yes. Add activities that suit your family, then use the filters to keep the current choices realistic.
What if I do not like the result?
Change the choices or filters first. Repeatedly spinning until you get the answer you wanted defeats the point of using chance.
