openers is a conversation game app for iPhone and Android with more than 10,000 conversation starter questions, organized by relationship: dating, couples, friends, family, and work. You pick a topic, the app deals questions, and everyone at the table answers.
The Starter Pack topic is free on iOS, and the whole app is free on Android while it is in beta. Full access on iOS is a subscription (monthly or annual, each with a 7 day free trial) or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Yes. Every question is stored on the device, so openers works on planes, on road trips, and anywhere without a signal.
Eleven: English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, German, Japanese, Hindi, Italian, Indonesian, French, Korean, and Filipino.
Questions are organized into 65 topics across 9 categories, including First Date, Date Night, Deep Questions, Would You Rather, Ask Your Kids, Ask Your Parents, Team Bonding, Road Tripping, and Daily Journal Prompts. They range from playful icebreakers to deep questions for people who know each other well.
Three ways. The size and organization of the library (10,000+ questions sorted by real relationships, not one generic deck). It works completely offline. And it is built around being present: features like Present Mode literally put the people in the room on the screen instead of a feed.
A mini pod is a short conversation video recorded with openers: the app overlays transparent question cards on your camera while you screen-record, so the question and the reaction are captured together. Recordings save to your camera roll and are never uploaded automatically. People use them like tiny podcasts with friends.
Tap the wordmark in the app and the question cards turn semi-transparent over your front camera. The phone stops being a wall: people see themselves and each other behind the questions.
Yes. openers builds custom decks: web-based, branded question decks for events, meetups, and communities. They run in the browser with your branding and your questions. Contact custom@opnrs.app.
Yes. iPhone and iPad via the App Store, Android via Google Play.
openers is made by an independent developer in Phoenix, Arizona, and the questions are written and curated by hand.
