Choose a spark
Start with today's exercise, search the full collection, revisit a favourite, or let surprise choose for you.
The app
A pocket-sized studio for everyday imagination.
3-Minute Creative brings prompts, tools, and gentle progress together in one completely offline Android app.
How it works
From “maybe later”
to made today.
The experience is deliberately short, clear, and forgiving. Come for three minutes; leave with something that did not exist before.
Pick your time
Choose one, two, or three minutes. A quiet timer holds the space while you create.
Keep what matters
Save your answer or drawing, add a reflection, and watch the habit grow at your pace.
Purpose-built tools
Different ideas need
different surfaces.
The exercise opens in the workspace that best fits it, so there is less setup between you and the idea.
Aa
Writing
Capture a tiny story, description, list, or line of dialogue without leaving the prompt.
⌁
Drawing
Sketch directly in the app with a simple, distraction-free canvas.
✓
Checklist
Notice, collect, compare, and complete guided observation exercises.

Reflection
Pause after creating and save a thought about what surprised you.
