Randomly select a group member in one tap. Decide who needs to cook tonight, and who will take care of dessert. Then select who will take out the garbage afterwards. Step away from a boring repeated schedule, and randomly select a group member for the next task. It's fair, it's easy and it's fun. Alternatives are popsicle stick, pulling names out of a hat or a coin toss. But let's be honest. It's 2018 and we all have a smartphone which we want to use where possible. The app helps to create exciting moments whenever there is a task to do. Or quickly jumps in when you need to make a decision. For example when you need to select a start player for your next (board) game. Tag, you're it!
