How to Use the Decision Wheel Generator
Add the options you're choosing between using the input list — each one becomes an equal-sized, colored slice on the wheel. Click "Spin the Wheel" and a genuinely random number (via Math.random()) picks the winning slice. The wheel then animates several full rotations plus a calculated final angle that lands the pointer exactly on that slice, before revealing the winning option clearly below the wheel.
Example
Enter "Pizza", "Sushi", "Tacos", and "Burgers" as four equal slices, click Spin, and after a few seconds of animated spinning the wheel might land on "Tacos" — a random, fair way to settle a group's dinner debate.
Common Use Cases
- Picking a restaurant, movie, or activity when a group can't agree.
- Randomly choosing a name from a raffle, giveaway, or team assignment list.
- Adding a fun, visual randomizer to classroom activities or team icebreakers.
FAQs
- How is this different from the Decision List Generator? The Decision List Generator is an analytical tool — you weigh pros and cons by importance to see which side of a decision scores higher. This Decision Wheel Generator does the opposite: it's a fun, purely random picker for when your options are roughly equal and you just want something chosen for you, with no weighing or analysis involved.
- Is the spin actually random, or does it favor certain slices? It's genuinely random — the winning option is chosen with
Math.random()before the animation even starts, and the wheel's spin angle is calculated afterward purely to visually land on that already-chosen result. Every option has an equal chance regardless of its position on the wheel. - Is there a limit to how many options I can add? No hard limit — add as many as you need with the "Add Option" button, though very long lists make each slice's label harder to read on the wheel.
