Why emoji voting?
Emojis are fast, intuitive, and democratic. Everyone can express their enthusiasm (⭐⭐⭐ = "I really want this!") or reservation (🌟 = "I'd go along"). soonish automatically sums all votes – creating a transparent ranking without debate.
💡 Unlike "Yes/No" votes, emojis allow nuances – and nobody dominates the decision.
Alternative: Priority Ranking (1-6)
For structured decisions, soonish also offers Priority Ranking: Everyone rates options from 1 ("Not really") to 6 ("I really want this!"). soonish automatically calculates the average – e.g., "Ø 4.8" for top favorites.
- 🏔️ Mountains: Ø 5.2 (6, 6, 5, 4)
- 🏖️ Beach: Ø 4.5 (5, 4, 5, 4)
- 🎨 Boston: Ø 3.8 (4, 3, 4, 4)
Ideal for 3-10 options when you need a clear top-5 order. Emoji voting is better for many options and spontaneous decisions.

Frequently asked questions about group decisions
How does emoji voting work exactly? ＋
Everyone can react to options with emojis (e.g., ⭐, 🌟, 🔥). Each emoji has a weight. soonish automatically sums the votes and creates a transparent ranking – resulting in a fair decision without debate.
What happens in case of a tie? ＋
Ties are displayed. You can then decide spontaneously, vote again, or simply combine both top options (e.g., beach on Saturday, mountains on Sunday).
Can we add options later? ＋
Yes. Everyone can add new options at any time – the list stays flexible until the decision is final.
Is emoji voting really fair? ＋
Yes. Everyone has equal vote. Unlike "Yes/No" votes, nuances can be expressed (⭐⭐⭐ = strong interest, 🌟 = okay). The ranking reflects the group's will – nobody dominates.
Why are emojis better than "Yes/No" votes? ＋
Emojis allow nuances: "I really want this" vs. "I'd go along" vs. "Rather not". This creates a more differentiated picture than binary Yes/No questions.
Can we make multiple decisions in parallel? ＋
Yes. Create multiple lists – e.g., "Weekend", "Birthday Gift", "Team Event". This keeps everything separate and organized.
What if someone doesn't want to vote? ＋
No problem. Non-voters don't influence the ranking – the decision is based on active votes.
Can we add reasons for options? ＋
Yes. Use the description to add details – e.g., "Beach: Weather must be good" or "Mountains: 2-hour drive".
