How to use the Conversation Starter
Pick a mood — Deep, Fun, Kids, Work, Party, or First Date — and get a question that gets people talking. Use it at dinner, in the car, in the classroom, or anywhere small talk keeps running dry. Copy or share a question you want to save.
How it works
- Choose a category, or leave it on All.
- Press New Question.
- Ask it, listen, and ask a follow-up before moving on.
- Copy or Share good ones.
Turning a question into a real conversation
- Follow up once. “What made you choose that?” is where the interesting part of the answer usually is.
- Answer it yourself too. People open up more when the asker shares as well.
- Match the mood to the moment. Save Deep questions for one-to-one time; Fun and Party work for groups.
