For the “what should we do?” moment
Things to do online with friends.
A good virtual hangout does not need a big plan. Pick one small thing to do together, then leave room for the jokes, side quests, and songs that happen along the way.
These activities are available inside a shared RoomRush room.

Eight easy starting points
Things to do on a virtual hangout.
Choose an idea that gives the group something to share. You can keep it simple, skip anything that does not fit, and move to another activity whenever you like.
Trade songs like a mixtape
Take turns adding a YouTube music link to the room queue. Ask what memory, person, or very specific mood goes with each pick. Listen together on RoomRush ↗
Draw the same silly prompt
Pick a tiny prompt—an imaginary pet, a dream snack, or the group mascot—and sketch it together on a shared canvas. No drawing skill needed.
Let a poll settle one decision
Vote on the next video, the snack theme, or which weekend works. A room poll makes a small group decision easy to see.
Plan the next time you meet
Collect ideas in shared notes or put a date on the room calendar. Keep the plan in the same place as the conversation.
Pick a place to explore
Open the shared map, drop a pin, and compare the places each person wants to visit someday—or where you should all get dinner next.
Try a quick round of reactions
Bring up an old story, a bold movie opinion, or the most unexpected song choice. React together and let the room’s inside jokes grow.
Do nothing in particular
Open a room, leave the mic and camera off, and hang out in chat. Sometimes having a place to drop in is the whole plan.
Keep it low-pressure
A small plan is enough.
Try this simple rhythm when your group is not sure where to start.
Ask everyone to bring one thing
A link, a song, a question, or a place they want to visit all work as a first idea.
Choose together
Use a quick poll if the group cannot decide what to watch, listen to, or plan.
Follow the good detour
When the conversation sparks a new idea, switch activities or leave the plan behind.
Questions from the group chat
Making an online hangout feel easy.
A few ways to use these ideas without turning a catch-up into homework.
What are fun things to do online with friends?
Try watching videos, trading songs, drawing on one shared canvas, voting in a poll, planning your next get-together, or exploring a shared map. On RoomRush, these activities sit inside the same online room as your chat.
How do we hang out online without a video call?
Open a RoomRush room and use its chat, shared video, music, drawing, polls, notes, or map activities. Camera and microphone are optional and stay off until someone chooses to use them.
What can a group of friends do on a virtual hangout?
Bring one link or one simple prompt to give everyone a starting point. Then share a video, build a small playlist, draw something together, or use a poll to decide the next activity.
Do all these activities need an account?
You can open a room and join an invite without a RoomRush account. Sign-in is optional for saving rooms and returning to them later.
Open a room and see what happens.
Bring one idea—or leave the plan blank. The next good thing can come from anyone in the room.
