"Where do you want to eat?" "I don't care, you pick." "No, you pick." Sound familiar? PickyEatrs ends the nightly dinner debate — for good. Here's how it works: one of you creates a session, the other joins with a simple code. You both swipe through the same nearby restaurants — right if you're interested, left to pass. Your choices are completely private until you're both done. Then the app reveals only the restaurants you BOTH liked, sorted by distance. No proposing. No vetoing. No compromise. Just mutual agreement — discovered in under 3 minutes. WHAT MAKES PICKYEATRS DIFFERENT • Private swiping — Neither of you sees what the other picked until the big reveal. No pressure, no politics. • Smart restaurant curation — We don't dump 50 random results on you. Each session shows 10–15 hand-picked restaurants with variety in cuisine, price, and distance. • Filters that matter — Set a price range, filter to only open restaurants, and choose your search radius (1, 3, 5, or 10 miles). • Near-miss detection — No matches? We'll show you the restaurants where you almost agreed — the ones one of you liked and the other lingered on before passing. • Try again, smarter — Still no match? Retry with a fresh set of restaurants in the same area, or widen your search radius. No duplicates. • Sign in & save — Create an account with email, Apple, or Google to save your dining history across devices. Or keep swiping anonymously — no account required. • PickyEatrs Premium — Unlock persistent partner pairing (skip the code every time), unlimited history, favorite restaurants, saved preferences, and dining streaks. • Works together or apart — Swipe at the same time on the couch, or one of you swipes now and the other swipes later. Matches appear when you're both done. HOW TO USE PICKYEATRS 1. Open the app and tap "Start Session" 2. Confirm your location and pick a search radius 3. Share the 6-character code with your partner 4. Both of you swipe through the restaurants 5. See your matches and pick a spot! Your swipe data is private and temporary — session data is automatically deleted after 24 hours. Accounts are optional and you can delete your data at any time. Stop arguing. Start swiping. Dinner is served. Privacy Policy: https://pickyeatrs.com/privacy Terms of Use: https://pickyeatrs.com/terms
