Wheel of Names — Spin the Wheel

Yes. This wheel determines the stopping position using crypto.getRandomValues, the browser's cryptographically secure random number generator — the same source used for security keys. Because all segments are equal in size and the final angle jitter is uniformly random, every entry has exactly the same chance of winning. It is fairer than human "eeny-meeny" picking and cannot be predicted.

Absolutely. Type or paste your names into the entries box, one per line, and the wheel rebuilds instantly — students, coworkers, chores, prizes, or any options you like. There is no limit on the number of entries; long lists simply get thinner segments. You can also shuffle the order or reset to the example list at any time.

There is no hard cap. The wheel redraws for any list size — 3, 30, or 300 entries — with segments and label sizes scaling automatically. With very long lists labels abbreviate, but the selection stays equally random. For classroom use, 40+ names work fine.

Yes. Enable "Remove winner after each spin" and each picked name is taken off the wheel automatically, so no one is chosen twice — ideal for calling on students or drawing prize winners in order. You can also remove the winner manually from the result banner, and the wheel keeps working until two or more entries remain.

Your list never leaves your device. The wheel, the random selection, and the animation all run entirely in your browser — there are no accounts, no server calls, and no tracking. Once the page is loaded it even keeps working offline.

Teachers use it to call on students; teams use it to pick who presents first or assigns fair standup order; parties use it for raffles and "who goes next" in games; families use it for chores and dinner decisions. Any time you need an unbiased, visible, and fun pick from a list, spin the wheel.
