Spin the Wheel (Wheel of Names)

It works the same basic way: type in your entries, spin the wheel, and get a random winner. If you're comparing wheel of names style sites, the main differences here are that everything runs entirely in your browser with no account or sign-up, and instead of a separate weight setting, you just list a name more than once to make it more likely to be picked.

Yes. Each spin picks a winner using your browser's random number generator before the wheel even starts animating, so the outcome is decided fairly and isn't influenced by where you click, how hard you spin, or anything else. The spinning animation is just there to make the reveal fun to watch.

List it more than once in the entries box. An entry that appears three times gets three times the chance of being picked compared to one that appears once, so you can weight your random wheel without learning any special syntax, just by adding extra lines.

No. Nothing to install, no account, and no sign-up. Add your entries and start spinning immediately, and everything keeps working the same way the next time you visit, since it all runs locally in your browser.

No. Your entries, your wheel's title, and your spin history all stay on your own device and are never sent to a server. Closing the tab or refreshing the page clears them, so there's nothing to delete or manage afterward.

Yes, if you turn on "Remove winner after spin." Each winner is automatically taken out of the list before the next spin, which is useful for raffles, prize draws, or picking an order for a group where nobody should be chosen twice.

Anything you'd normally decide with a coin flip or a dice roll. The quick-fill buttons load a Yes/No wheel, a 1-6 dice wheel, the days of the week, or Rock/Paper/Scissors, and you can just as easily type in restaurant names, movie choices, or team assignments for your own random wheel.

Yes. The spin duration slider goes from 3 to 10 seconds, so you can keep it quick for a fast decision or stretch it out for more suspense before the winner is revealed.

Yes. Pick from four different ticking sounds (Classic Click, Soft Pop, Wood Block, Digital Beep) and four different winner sounds (Fanfare, Chime, Sparkle, Drumroll & Crash) in the Customize panel, or set either to Silent, plus an overall Volume slider. Every sound is generated live in your browser rather than played from an audio file, so there's nothing to download and no copyrighted music involved. Click "Mute" in the top right for a quick full silence toggle regardless of your sound choices.

Yes. Pick "Custom" under Colors in the Customize panel to reveal six color pickers; the wheel assigns them to slices in order and repeats the pattern if you have more entries than colors, the same way the four built-in palettes (Classic, Vibrant, Pastel, Mono) already work.

Yes. Upload an image under "Center image" in the Customize panel and it replaces the default SPIN hub, cropped to a circle. Remove it any time to go back to the default look.

Yes. Type your own message under "Winner message" in the Customize panel, using :name anywhere you want the winner's name inserted, for example "🎉 :name wins the prize!" Leave it blank to just show the plain name, which is the default.

Yes. Every Customize panel choice (colors, sounds, volume, spin duration, remove-winner toggle, center image, and winner message) is saved to your browser's local storage and automatically reapplied the next time you open this tool on the same device. Nothing is sent to a server; your entries themselves are not saved this way and reset to the example list on each visit.

There's no shareable link since nothing is stored on a server, but you can give someone your list of entries to paste in themselves, or share your screen while you spin, which works well for classroom activities, livestream giveaways, or team meetings.
