Customize Your Wheel Items
Add up to 100 names, prizes, or options to the wheel: type them one at a time, or paste a list with one name per line and click Replace list. The wheel starts with 6 sample items. Click × to remove any item you don't need.Click SPIN
Press the big SPIN button to start the wheel. The wheel will spin rapidly and gradually slow down to reveal the result — just like a real prize wheel.See the Result
The wheel stops with the winning segment under the pointer and the name is announced below the wheel. Each item has an equal chance. Turn on 'Remove winner after each spin' to draw several different names, and use Copy to save the winners list.Spin Again
Spin as many times as you need. By default each spin is independent, so a previous winner can win again. If you turn on 'Remove winner after each spin', names that were already picked leave the wheel.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the spin the wheel tool work?
The winner is chosen the moment you click Spin using your browser's cryptographic random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues), with every name equally likely. The animation is then set to stop exactly on that name, so what you see on the wheel matches the announced result.
Can I customize the items on the wheel?
Yes. You can have up to 100 items on the wheel, each up to 40 characters. Type a name and click Add, or paste a list with one name per line and click Replace list (or Add to list). Remove an item with the × next to it, or click Reset to Default to start over.
Is the wheel spinner truly random and fair?
Yes. Every item has the same chance of winning, regardless of how large its segment looks or where it sits on the wheel. The result is drawn with the browser's cryptographic random generator and nobody, including us, can influence it.
What can I use the wheel spinner for?
The spin wheel is great for classroom activities (picking students), giveaways and contests, deciding where to eat, team assignments, game nights, and any situation where you need a random, unbiased decision.
How do I pick several different names, one after another?
Turn on 'Remove winner after each spin'. After a name is picked it leaves the wheel at your next spin, so nobody is picked twice. The Winners list shows the order they were picked, and Copy copies it as text, one name per line. When fewer than two names are left, the wheel asks you to add more.
How many names can the wheel show?
Up to 100. Up to 30 names, each segment shows its name (long names are shortened to fit). With more than 30, the wheel hides the labels because they would be unreadable, and the winner is shown below the wheel instead.
Are the names I enter stored or sent anywhere?
No. Everything runs in your browser and the names are not uploaded by the tool. They are gone when you refresh or close the page.
Does the wheel work on mobile?
Yes, the wheel spinner is fully responsive and works on all devices including smartphones and tablets. Just tap the SPIN button to get started.
Can I spin the wheel multiple times?
Yes, you can spin as many times as you like. Each spin is independent with equal probability for all items. The result will be displayed after each spin completes.
