Make ordinary days feel less ordinary. Tiny Detours turns spare moments into small, curated adventures. Tell it how much time and energy you have, and it offers three missions that fit. Choose one now, save one for later, or tap “Not for me.” There are no streaks, no missed-day guilt, and no pressure to complete anything perfectly. FOCUS ON THE MOMENT Each mission includes a simple timer and optional hints. Finish early if the experience feels complete—the timer is a guide, not a quota. KEEP WHAT MATTERS After a mission, you can add a photo or short video, one sentence, a mood, and a private rating. Documenting the moment is always optional. SEE YOUR DAYS DIFFERENTLY Your Collection becomes a visual record of what you noticed, tried, made, and explored. Weekly recaps, milestones, threads, personal patterns, and a variety meter reward breadth instead of consecutive usage. SHAPED AROUND YOU Filter missions by time, energy, cost, setting, accessibility needs, interests, and social comfort. On-device personalization can gently improve the order of eligible suggestions, and you can reset or disable it at any time. PRIVATE BY DESIGN Tiny Detours requires no account and no location access. Mission history, preferences, ratings, notes, and memories remain in the app’s local storage. Optional reminders are scheduled directly on your device. Tiny Detours is designed to encourage curiosity—not become another chore.
