iPhone
Stop the "idk, you pick" loop. Everyone drops a restaurant, the group votes it down, and ties end in a live duel. One link — friends can vote without the app.
Can't agree where to eat? Stop the group text ping-pong.
Meal Duel turns "where should we eat" into a fast, fair group decision:
1. Create a session and share one link with your group — no accounts, no sign-up friction for anyone you invite.
2. Everyone picks a restaurant they want to eat at (search by name or browse what's nearby).
3. The group votes it down to one through fast elimination rounds — round one is a veto ("no" votes only), later rounds keep the top picks until one restaurant wins.
4. Still tied? Duel it out. The backers of the tied restaurants face off in a live, head-to-head Rock-Paper-Scissors duel — winner picks dinner. No stalemates, no "I don't care, you pick" loops. Every session ends in an actual decision.
Built for how real groups actually decide things:
- The host can set a time limit per round so one slow responder doesn't hold up the whole group, and can vote or submit on behalf of anyone joining from a shared device.
- Anyone can join and vote right from a browser — no app install required to participate (hosting a session does need the app).
- Real restaurant details and photos powered by Google Places, not a curated list that goes stale.
- No in-app ordering or delivery — Meal Duel only helps you decide, then you handle it however you already do (call, walk in, order through whatever app you like).
No account required to vote. Just a quick, fair way to end the "idk, you pick" cycle — and if it comes down to the wire, may the best rock-paper-scissors player choose the restaurant.
