Wheel spinner
Paste a list, press spin, and the wheel picks one. Nothing to install and nothing to sign up for — it runs entirely in this tab.
What makes a spinner trustworthy
A wheel is only fair if the slices are genuinely equal and the landing point is genuinely unpredictable. Both are easy to get subtly wrong: draw the slices from rounded angles and the last one absorbs the error, or seed the randomness from the clock and consecutive spins correlate.
This one divides the circle exactly and takes its randomness from the browser's cryptographic generator rather than from a timestamp. Two spins a second apart are as independent as two spins a week apart.
You can see it is fair, too. Every slice is drawn at the same angle unless you deliberately weight one, and the weights are shown as numbers rather than hidden in the geometry.
Spinning something other than names
The list is just lines of text, so it will spin anything you can write down: chores, restaurants, film titles, which of four ideas to work on first. There is no category to choose and no template to fit into.
Long entries are fine — the label shrinks to fit rather than being cut off, because a wheel that lands on "Thursday afternoon dep…" has not told you anything useful.
Emoji and non-Latin scripts work as well as plain words. The wheel measures the text it is actually given rather than assuming a Latin alphabet.
On a phone
The wheel scales to the screen instead of being cropped, and the spin control is a full-width button rather than a small target beside the rim. Flicking the wheel works too if that is the gesture you reach for.
It also respects a reduced-motion setting. If your device asks for less animation the wheel resolves immediately to its result rather than spinning for three seconds — the answer is the point, not the animation.
Nothing is uploaded at any stage. The list you type stays in the tab, which matters more than it sounds when the list is a class register or a set of customer names.
Common questions
Is this wheel spinner really free?
Yes, with no account and no limit on how many times you spin or how long the list is.
Is the spin actually random?
It uses the browser's cryptographic random source rather than the clock, so spins a second apart are independent. Slices are drawn at exactly equal angles unless you weight them yourself.
Can I use it without an internet connection?
Once the page has loaded, yes — the spinning happens in your browser and nothing is sent anywhere.
