Spin Wheel

How the spin wheel works

Type your options into the entry list — names, restaurants, chores, anything you need to choose between. Each entry gets an equal slice of the wheel. Hit spin and the wheel winds up, whirls, and slows to land on one winner, announced with confetti.

Your entries live in the page link, so you can bookmark a wheel or send it to someone and they see exactly the same choices. Nothing is stored on a server and there is no account to make.

What people use it for

Teachers spin to pick which student answers next — it reads as luck, not favoritism, and a saved link means tomorrow’s class is one bookmark away. Streamers run giveaways where the audience watches the pick happen live. Friend groups settle where to eat when nobody wants to decide.

For quick two-way calls there are ready-made setups too: a yes or no wheel for instant answers, a wheel of names for drawing names, and a plain heads or tails flip.

Fair by design

The winning slice comes from crypto.getRandomValues, the randomness primitive built into every modern browser. Every entry has an identical chance on every spin, and the outcome isn’t chosen until the wheel stops. There is no way to weight it, which is exactly why the result settles arguments.

FAQ

Is the spin wheel really random?

Yes. Each spin draws from the browser’s cryptographic random source (crypto.getRandomValues), not a simple pseudo-random shortcut. Every entry has an equal probability on every spin, and past results never influence the next one.

Can I save or share my wheel?

Yes. Your entries are encoded into the page URL as you edit. Bookmark the page to keep a wheel, or copy the link to share it — anyone who opens it sees the same wheel, ready to spin.

How many entries can I add?

There is no cap. Past roughly two dozen entries the labels start to crowd, so if you are spinning a long list you may want to shorten the text on each option — the odds stay even no matter how many slices there are.

Is it free? Do I need an account?

Free, with nothing to sign up for. The whole wheel is a web page — open it and spin, on whatever device you already have in front of you.

Can the wheel be rigged toward one option?

No. There are no weights and no way to favor an entry. Equal slices, equal odds — that’s the point of using it to settle a decision.
