How to use the Wheel Picker

  1. Type or paste your options in the entries box — one entry per line, as many as you need (up to 100).
  2. Fine-tune the list: add single entries, edit or remove them one by one, or strip duplicates with one click.
  3. Press Spin the wheel — the pointer stops on a cryptographically fair winner.
  4. Choose Remove winner to eliminate it and spin again (great for picking in sequence), or Keep winner to leave the wheel unchanged.
  5. Optional: export your entries to a local text file, or import a list back from a file later.

When to use a custom wheel

  • Raffles and giveaways — paste a list of names and spin.
  • Classrooms — randomise which student, topic, or question comes next.
  • Chores, dinners, movie nights — let the wheel decide fairly.
  • Sequential picking — remove each winner and spin again until the list is empty.

Is the result really random?

Yes. Each spin draws the winning entry from your browser's cryptographic random number generator (crypto.getRandomValues) with rejection sampling, so every entry has exactly the same chance — no modulo bias, and no weighting by where or when you tap. The wheel animation only shows the entry that was already chosen; the result never depends on timing. Deliberately repeated entries weight the odds — the “Remove duplicates” button gives every option equal weight.

Privacy

This tool has no server, no accounts, and no tracking. Your entries, recent winners, and the sound preference are saved only in this browser's local storage — never uploaded, logged, or shared. Import and export are plain local files: nothing leaves your device. No cookies, no analytics, no ads.

FAQ

How many entries can the wheel hold?

Up to 100. The cap keeps the wheel readable and fast; longer pastes are trimmed to the first 100 usable lines and the tool tells you so. Entries longer than 80 characters are trimmed for display.

Can the wheel be rigged?

No. The winning entry is chosen before the spin by cryptographic randomness, and the wheel simply animates to that preselected sector. Nothing about speed, timing, or where you tap changes the odds. Only the list itself affects the odds — duplicated entries genuinely appear more often, and “Remove duplicates” restores a uniform draw.

What is the difference from the Yes or No Wheel?

The Yes or No Wheel is a fixed two-answer coin-flip wheel. The Wheel Picker is a separate tool for your own arbitrary list of options, with editing, history, and import/export.

Do you store my entries or results?

Only in your own browser. Entries, recent winners, and the sound preference live in this browser's local storage so the wheel is there when you come back; clearing the site data or pressing “Reset” removes them. Nothing is ever sent anywhere — there is no backend at all.

Does it work on my phone?

Yes. The page is responsive and touch-friendly, works in any modern browser, and fully supports keyboard operation and reduced motion.
