About DinePilot
Stop debating where to eat. DinePilot turns "I don't know, where do you want to go?" into a decision in minutes. Add your favorite spots — search nearby restaurants with Assistant or add your own by hand. Set your rules: no fast food, budget limits, distance, or custom constraints you define. Watch the Venn Diagram show exactly how each rule narrows your options in real time. When you're ready, Tonight's Pick cycles through your matches and locks in a winner — no more circular arguments about where to go. Deciding together? Share your spots and rules with your partner using a simple code, or import theirs, so you're always choosing from the same list. Everything stays on your device and syncs privately via iCloud. No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no ads. FEATURES • My Spots — build your list of go-to restaurants, added by hand or found nearby • Rules — fast food, budget, distance, and your own custom filters • Venn Diagram — see how your active rules shrink the field • Tonight's Pick — a fair, fast way to land on a winner • Share Code — sync spots and rules with a partner or friend • Private by design — no accounts, no tracking, no ads Perfect for couples, roommates, and friend groups who are tired of the "where do you want to eat" spiral.
What’s new
Version 1.4.0 · Updated September 17, 2026
DinePilot is now free! We've removed the $0.99 price so anyone can start settling the "where should we eat" debate. The app now shows the occasional ad to keep it free — or remove ads entirely with a one-time in-app purchase. Everything else you rely on to pick a winner works exactly the same.
