# Browse, search, and filter ideas

Use the **Ideas** page to browse Domino Cards and narrow what Domino recommends.

## Browse For you

1. Open **Ideas**.
2. Select **For you** at the top.
3. Scroll through the Domino Cards.

For you does not create a saved Ideas List. It is useful for open-ended discovery or temporary filters.

## Open a saved Ideas List

Select its named pill beside **For you**. The list's saved defaults become the starting point for the cards and filter state.

## Search Domino

1. Select the magnifying-glass button near the top of **Ideas**.
2. Enter a place, event, idea, plan, or other search phrase.
3. Open the relevant result.

Search is appropriate when the user knows what they are looking for. Filters are better for refining recommendations.

## Filter ideas

1. Select **Filters**, the Who chip, or another visible filter control.
2. In **Filter ideas**, choose a tab:
   - **Who** — people the ideas should fit;
   - **Where** — neighborhoods or areas;
   - **What** — activity categories;
   - **When** — timing and day preferences;
   - **Custom** — additional written guidance for a selected Ideas List.
3. Make the selections.
4. Select **Done**.

Use **Reset** to remove the current filter changes.

## Add a person who is not listed

In the **Who** tab:

1. Select **Add someone**.
2. Enter the person's name.
3. Select **Add**.

This creates a private typed-name placeholder. It does not notify or invite that person.

## Prioritize liked ideas

Select the heart button in the filter row to turn **Liked first** on. Liked cards move nearer the top without excluding all other matching ideas.

## Saved list versus temporary view

When **For you** is selected, changed filters are temporary unless the user saves them as an Ideas List.

When a named Ideas List is selected, supported default changes can auto-save to that list. If the user wants a separate list rather than changing the selected one, use **Save as new copy**.

## Calendar-aware When filters

The **When** tab can offer calendar connection. Domino uses calendar free/busy state to avoid obviously busy times. It does not expose event titles, notes, locations, or guests through ordinary availability guidance.

For setup, provider differences, and privacy, read [Connect Google, Apple, Microsoft, or another calendar](/docs/calendar/overview.md).

## LLM answering guidance

- Ask what the user wants to narrow—people, activity, place, or timing—only when it changes the path.
- Explain that **Liked first** reorders; do not claim it is an exclusive saved-only filter.
- If the user has a named list selected, warn before advising changes that may update that list's defaults.
