Wheel Spinner

Yes — completely free, with no sign-ups and no premium tier. Every feature (weighted entries, elimination mode, bulk import, CSV export, sound effects, and spin history) is available to everyone, forever.

No. This wheel spinner runs 100% in your browser using client-side JavaScript. Your entries, spin history, and settings never leave your device. There is no server, no database, and no account system, and nothing records your entries. You can even disconnect from the internet after the page loads and the wheel will keep working perfectly.

Yes. Unlike many wheel spinners that use Math.random() (which is predictable), this tool uses the Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues()) — the same source of randomness used by TLS encryption and password generators. Every spin is cryptographically secure and cannot be predicted or manipulated.

Each entry has a weight (default is 1). The wheel divides its total area proportionally based on these weights. For example, if Entry A has weight 2 and Entry B has weight 1, Entry A gets twice the slice of the wheel and twice the chance of being picked. You can use decimals like 0.5 for smaller slices.

Elimination mode automatically disables the winning entry after each spin. Keep spinning and the wheel gets smaller and smaller until only one entry remains — the ultimate winner. This is ideal for raffles, tournaments, and "last one standing" giveaways. You can always click Undo to bring the last winner back.

Yes. Click the Bulk Import button and paste your list with one entry per line. You can optionally prefix each line with a weight followed by a comma, like 3,Pizza or 1,Sushi. Lines without a weight prefix default to 1. There's no hard limit on the number of entries, though the wheel renders labels best with up to ~30 visible segments.

Absolutely. Every entry has a color picker swatch next to it. Click it to choose any color. New entries are auto-assigned colors using a golden-angle distribution algorithm so that adjacent slices always look visually distinct, even with dozens of entries.

Yes. The interface is fully responsive and touch-friendly. The canvas wheel scales to fit your screen, and every button, input, and toggle is sized for comfortable finger taps. You can use it on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops.

Yes. Once the page has loaded in your browser, you can turn off Wi-Fi or mobile data and the wheel will continue to work perfectly. All logic, animation, and sound generation happen locally — no network calls are made after the initial page load.

After you've done at least one spin, click the Export button. The tool generates a CSV file containing the spin number, winning entry, and timestamp for every spin. You can open this file in Excel, Google Sheets, or any spreadsheet app for record-keeping or analysis.

Yes — this is one of the most popular use cases. Teachers paste student names (or use bulk import from a roster), give everyone equal weight, and spin to pick who answers the next question, presents first, or gets a prize. Because the randomness is cryptographically secure, students can trust that the pick is genuinely fair.

Yes. Paste viewer usernames via bulk import, enable elimination mode, and spin repeatedly until one name remains. Enable sound effects for a more exciting reveal on stream. You can also export the full history afterward to document the winner for your audience.

The animation is designed to land randomly within the winning slice, not always dead-center. This makes the result feel more natural and prevents the wheel from looking "scripted." The underlying random selection is still 100% fair — the visual landing position is just cosmetic.

There is no hard limit. You can add hundreds of entries if you want. However, for the best visual experience, the wheel renders text labels optimally with around 30 or fewer enabled entries. If you have more entries than that, consider using elimination mode to narrow the field, or only enable the entries you want visible on the wheel at a given time.

Yes. Open the Settings panel and adjust the Spin Duration slider from 1 to 10 seconds. A shorter duration gives a quick, snappy spin; a longer duration builds more suspense. The physics-based easing curve adjusts automatically so the deceleration always feels smooth regardless of duration.
