Type one name, option, or choice per line. The wheel updates as you type.

Every spin uses your browser crypto random generator, so each entry has an equal, fair chance. Nothing is uploaded. Your entries and settings stay on this device.

Quick answer

A spin the wheel tool is a random picker that spins a wheel of your entries and lands on one winner at random. YaliKit draws the winner with your browser crypto random generator so every entry has equal odds, then animates the wheel to that result with confetti and sound. You can remove a winner to avoid repeats and share your wheel with a link, all in your browser.

Why Use Spin the Wheel Random Picker?

Genuinely Random and Fair

Each spin draws a winner with your browser crypto random generator, not a predictable Math.random loop, so every entry has an equal chance. The wheel then animates to that exact result, so what you see is what was fairly chosen.

Delightful to Watch

A colorful wheel spins with smooth ease-out over about four seconds, a ticking sound as it passes each entry, and a confetti burst on the winner. It feels like a real prize draw, which keeps a classroom or an audience engaged.

No Sign Up, No Limits

Open the page and start spinning. There is no account, no email, and no cap on how many names you add or how many times you spin. Add a full class list or a giveaway of thousands of entries.

Private and In Your Browser

The whole wheel runs on your device with plain JavaScript. Your list of names is never uploaded to a server, and your entries plus your sound preference are saved locally so they are still there next time.

What People Spin the Wheel For

Classroom Name Picker

Fairly pick a student to answer, present, or go next without always choosing the same hands.

Giveaways and Raffles

Draw a random winner from entrants live, then remove them and draw runners-up.

Teams and Groups

Assign turn order, split people into groups, or pick who goes first in a game.

Decisions and Yes or No

Let the wheel settle where to eat, what to watch, or a quick yes or no.

How It Works

1

Type Your Entries

Add one name, option, or choice per line in the entries box. The wheel redraws live as you type, giving each entry its own colored slice.

2

Press Spin

Tap the big Spin button or the center of the wheel. It spins with smooth easing and a ticking sound, then slows to a stop on a random winner.

3

Announce, Remove, or Spin Again

A confetti banner shows the winner. Remove that winner so it cannot come up twice, spin again for the next pick, or copy and share the result.

Pro Tips

Draw Multiple Winners Cleanly

For a giveaway with several prizes, press Remove winner after each spin. The wheel shrinks so no name can win twice, giving you a clean first, second, and third place.

Prep the Wheel Ahead of Time

Paste your list, then use Share link to save a ready-made wheel. Open that link in class or on stream and it loads with every entry already in place.

Sound Needs a First Click

Browsers block audio until you interact with the page. The first Spin unlocks the ticking and win sounds, so if you want audio, keep the Sound toggle on before you present.

Frequently Asked Questions

When you press Spin, the tool first chooses a winning entry at random, then rotates the wheel so that entry lands under the pointer at the top. The pointer marks the winner, and the animation always matches the entry that was chosen, so the visible result is the real result.
Yes. The winner is drawn with crypto.getRandomValues, the browser's cryptographically strong random source, using rejection sampling to avoid any bias toward the first entries. Every entry has an equal chance on every spin, so the wheel is not weighted or rigged.
Yes. After a spin the winner banner has a Remove winner button that takes that entry off the wheel, which is ideal for drawing several winners in a row without repeats. There is also a Spin again button to keep the same list and pick the next winner.
Yes. Your entries are encoded into the page link, so the Share link button copies a URL that reopens the exact same wheel for anyone you send it to. You can also save named lists in your browser and load them later from the Lists menu.
Your current entries and your sound setting are stored in your browser's local storage, so they are still there when you return. You can also save multiple named lists, such as one per class or team, and switch between them from the Lists menu.
There is no fixed limit. The wheel stays readable with a handful of names or a hundred, shrinking the label text and truncating very long names so every slice still fits. For huge giveaways the pointer still lands on one fair winner.
Yes. The Sound toggle switches off the ticking spin sound and the winning chime, and your choice is remembered for next time. Sound only plays after you interact with the page, which respects browser autoplay rules.
