Questions
Is the wheel actually random?
Yes. Each spin draws a winner with crypto.getRandomValues(), the same random number generator browsers use for security work, and the animation is then worked backwards so the wheel lands on it. Every slice of the same size has exactly the same chance, and nothing about the spin — how hard you flick it, how long it runs — changes the odds.
Can I make one entry more likely to win?
Add a multiplier after the name: “Pizza x3” or “Pizza ×3” gives pizza three slices instead of one, so it wins three times as often. Repeating a name on separate lines does the same thing.
How do I stop the same name winning twice?
Turn on “Remove the winner after each spin”. The winner is taken off the wheel as soon as it is announced, so a run of spins deals everything out without repeats. Undo puts the last one back.
Can I share my wheel with someone else?
Press “Copy link” and the entries are packed into the URL. Anyone who opens it gets the same wheel, with nothing to install and no account.
Does it save my list?
The main wheel keeps your entries, your options and your recent results in your own browser, so closing the tab does not lose them. Nothing is sent to a server: the wheel, the sounds and the random draw all run on your device, and it keeps working with the wifi off.
How many entries can I add?
Up to 500. Past about 60 the slices get too narrow for their labels, so the wheel hides the text and shows the winner in full when it stops.
Can I turn the sound off?
Yes — the speaker button mutes the ticks and the fanfare, and the setting is remembered. The wheel also respects your system's “reduce motion” setting: it spins briefly and skips the confetti instead of animating for several seconds.
Can I use it on a phone or a projector?
Both. The wheel scales to the screen, you can flick it with a finger the way you would a real wheel, and the fullscreen button blows it up for a classroom projector or a stream.
About
A picker wheel for names, numbers, chores, dinner and anything else a group can’t agree on. Type your list, press the hub, and watch it clatter to a stop.
You can flick the wheel with a finger the way you would a real one, give an entry extra slices so it comes up more often, take each winner off the wheel as it’s drawn, and send the whole wheel to someone else as a link. There are ready-made wheels for the common questions, from yes or no to what to eat.
How it works
- The draw comes first. Before the wheel moves, the winner is drawn with
crypto.getRandomValues(), the random number generator browsers use for security work. The animation is then worked backwards so the wheel lands on it. No spin is luckier than another, and how hard you flick it changes nothing. - It slows down like a real wheel. Friction takes speed away at a steady rate, which is what makes the pegs tick faster at the start and space out at the end. The flapper at the top is a damped spring: each peg knocks it aside and it snaps back.
- Sound is made, not loaded. The ticks are filtered noise and the little fanfare is four notes, both generated with the Web Audio API, so there are no sound files to download.
- Weights: “Pizza x3” gives pizza three slices out of the total instead of one, and the draw is weighted to match.
- Ready-made wheels like yes or no, 1 to 100 and what to eat each have their own page.
Notes
Everything runs in your browser: the wheel, the sounds and the draw. Your entries, your options and your recent results are kept on your own device and sent nowhere, and the page keeps working offline.
Above about 60 entries the slices are too thin for their labels, so the text is hidden and the winner is shown in full when the wheel stops. The hard limit is 500.
