Your Ultimate Spin the Wheel for Random Decisions

Making your own custom spin the wheel is incredibly easy with our tool. First, navigate to the wheel builder on our page. You'll see an input box (often labeled 'Entries') where you can add your options. You can type or paste your choices, with each new option on a new line (e.g., 'Alice', 'Bob', 'Charlie'). As you add entries, you'll see the picker wheel preview update in real-time. Next, you can dive into the 'Settings' or 'Customize' options. There, you can change the colors of each slice, adjust the spin time, and even add a custom title to your wheel. Once you're happy with your wheel spinner, just hit the large 'Spin!' button. It's that simple! No sign-up is required to create and spin the wheel.

Yes, absolutely. This is a cornerstone of our tool's E-E-A-T (Expertise, Authoritativeness, and Trustworthiness). Our wheel spinner does not use simple, predictable math. It employs a sophisticated pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) algorithm. This means that when you spin the wheel, the outcome is computed to be as close to truly random as digitally possible, ensuring every slice has an equal and fair chance of being selected on every spin. You can use our picker wheel for official contests and giveaways with full confidence in its impartiality.

The 'Wheel of Names' is one of the most popular uses for our tool. To create one, simply type or paste the list of names from your class, team, or audience into the entry box. For the best 'Wheel of Names' experience, we recommend using 'Elimination Mode.' You can find this in the settings. When 'Elimination Mode' is active, every time you spin the wheel and a name is chosen, that name will be removed from the wheel. This is perfect for calling on every student in a class or drawing multiple winners for a raffle until all names are gone.

The 'Yes or No Wheel' is a simple decision-making tool. You can create one yourself by simply adding two entries to the wheel: 'Yes' and 'No'. However, we also provide a 'Yes or No Wheel' template. You can load this template with one click. It's pre-formatted with two equal-sized slices. This is a fun alternative to flipping a coin and is perfect for helping you make quick binary decisions. Just ask your question and let the spin the wheel tool give you an answer!

Yes! While you can always use our spin the wheel tool for free without an account, we offer a 'Save' feature for registered users. Creating a free account allows you to save your custom picker wheel configurations. This is ideal for teachers who want to save their 'Wheel of Names' for each class or for businesses that want to reuse a branded prize wheel. Once saved, you can also get a unique shareable link for your wheel.

These terms are often used interchangeably, along with 'spin the wheel'! They all refer to the same concept: a digital, virtual wheel divided into segments that you spin to get a random result. 'Picker wheel' is a great term because it emphasizes its job: *picking* an item from a list. 'Wheel spinner' is also common as it describes the action of the tool *spinning*. Whether you call it a picker wheel, a wheel spinner, or a spin the wheel tool, you've come to the right place. We provide all this functionality and more, including specific tools like the 'Wheel of Names' and 'Yes or No Wheel'.

Our spin the wheel tool is designed to be highly flexible. You can add hundreds of entries to a single wheel. The wheel will automatically adjust the size of the slices to accommodate all your options. While you *can* add 500 or more entries, be aware that the text on each slice will become very small. For best readability and a fun spinning experience, we find the picker wheel works best with anywhere from 2 to 50 entries, but the power is there if you need it for a large-scale raffle.
