Common questions
Are the suggested activities genuinely free?
Yes. Selecting the '100% Free' budget filter surfaces ideas that require zero commercial purchases, utilizing public outdoor spaces, household items, or creative cognitive exercises.
Does my Day Plan persist if I refresh the page?
Yes. Saved activities are safely stored in your browser's client-side localStorage, meaning your custom itinerary remains available until you choose to clear it.
Can I filter by the number of participants?
Yes. You can isolate activities specifically tailored for solo relaxation/learning, couples/roommate duos, or larger group friend gatherings.
Does this tool require an internet connection or external API?
No. All activity databases and local storage operations execute completely client-side in your web browser with zero external dependencies.
