    Quick answer

    A wheel spinner is a digital prize wheel that picks one option at random. Type your options, one per line, and click Spin the wheel or the wheel itself. It spins and slows down, and the slice under the pointer is the winner. Tick Remove the winner to take each result off the wheel, which is handy for picking names in order.

    Our free wheel spinner works as a random decision maker for what to eat, who goes first, which question to answer next or which prize someone wins. Each slice gets its own colour, long labels are shortened to fit, and the stopping point comes from your browser's secure random generator.

    Teachers love a wheel spinner for picking students fairly, streamers use it for viewer challenges, and families use it to end the what's-for-dinner debate. The wheel spinner picks the final angle with crypto.getRandomValues, so each slice has the same chance.

    Is the Wheel Really Random?

    Yes. The total spin is five to eight full turns plus a random extra angle, all chosen with your browser's secure random generator. Every slice is the same size, so every option has exactly the same probability of landing under the pointer.

    Wheel Spinner Tips

    • Add an option twice to give it double the chance.
    • Keep labels short so they are easy to read on the wheel.
    • Put the wheel on a big screen in class or on a shared screen in video calls.
    • Use Remove the winner to create a random order for presentations or turns.
