About

Top Pick

Features
Read full description

"Where should we eat?" "What should we watch?" Top Pick is an iMessage app for the moments two people can't decide. Drop in a list, do a few quick taps, and Top Pick finds the option you'll both be happiest with β€” without ever leaving Messages. Open Top Pick from the iMessage apps drawer, type your choices, and tap through a series of head-to-head matchups (this or that, this or that). After a handful of taps, Pick knows your order. Send the message; the other side ranks too; the result combines both into a "best matches" list with the top pick at the top. What's inside: β€’ Each option gets its own color so you can track it through the flow. β€’ Saved lists remember your go-tos β€” reuse "lunch spots" or "weekend ideas" with one tap. β€’ Swipe to edit any saved list and reuse it without rebuilding from scratch. β€’ See the combined best matches or each person's individual ranking β€” works for two people or a group. β€’ No accounts, no tracking, just a first name you set once.
