🎲 Browsing a shared list: Show all and Pick random

The two ways to browse a shared list, and when the random picker appears.

Once a list you’ve shared has three or more wishes, visitors see a small switcher above the wishes with two ways to browse.

The two views

• Show all is the standard view, in the order the wishes are arranged.
• Pick random lands on a random wish. It’s handy when someone can’t decide what to get, or wants to make picking a gift into a little game.

Use it

1. Open a shared list.
2. Choose Show all or Pick random above the wishes.

Good to know

• Nothing about the list changes when you switch views. It’s just a different way to look at the same wishes.
• Pick random needs three wishes. With one or two there’s nothing to spin through.

Frequently asked questions

Does switching view modes change my list?

No. Show all and Pick random are just different ways to look at the same wishes on a shared list. Nothing about the list itself changes.

Which view mode should I use to help someone pick a gift?

Pick random is built for exactly that. It lands on a random wish, which is handy when someone can’t decide.

Why don’t I see the Pick random option?

It only shows up once a list has three or more wishes, since spinning through one or two options doesn’t make sense as a game.
