How Outwego works

Sign up with your email and choose a username. On first launch the app asks you a few questions about your interests and recommends your first quests based on them.

Every quest has a title, description, tags, a difficulty (easy, medium, hard), an estimated time and an XP amount.

• Filter by tags and difficulty.
• Some quests are one-time, others you can repeat – daily, weekly, monthly or after a certain period.
• You can save a quest for later or schedule it for a specific day.

Head out and experience the quest. Then mark it as completed in the app.

• Some quests require adding a photo.
• When completing, you can add a note, rate the quest or answer a reflection question.
• You decide whether to share your completion with others.

You earn XP for every valid completion. The server calculates XP, so you can't earn it twice for the same one-time quest.

• Your level grows with XP.
• You unlock achievements for milestones.
• On your profile you'll find the history of completed quests.

Got a tip for a great experience? Write it up as a quest. New quests are reviewed before they appear to others.

• Players can rate quests.
• Authors with consistently high-quality quests can earn the Trusted Creator status.

Outwego is more fun with others.

• Send friend requests and find people by username.
• Follow the activity of your friends or the whole community.
• Compare yourself with others on the leaderboard.
• Invite friends on a quest or share your experience with a link.

In the privacy settings you decide who sees what. Default settings:

• Profile: public
• Activity: friends
• Friends list: friends
• Completed quests: friends
• Friend requests: anyone

Outwego runs in your browser and you can install it as a web app.
