Common, general or colloquial usage: Will is used with all persons (I / we; you; he/she/it, they). Shall is much less commonly used, but is often used in first-person offers (e.g. “shall I start the engines?”, “shall we meet you there?”) and occasionally for emphasis e.g. “he shall do it”.
but traditionally, it has been claimed that the correct approach was to make a cross-distinction.
The most influential proponent of the distinction was John Wallis, whose 1653 Grammatica Linguae Anglicanae stated “The rule is… to express a future event without emotional overtones, one should say I shall, we shall, but you/he/she/they will; conversely, for emphasis, willfulness, or insistence, one should say I/we will, but you/he/she/they shall”.

It depends on what you’re writing.
Shall sounds formal and will tell you is more casual.
