Your wheel, your rules

Can I customize the random name picker?

Yes. Edit any label, choose a color, or paste your own list. Uncheck an entry to leave it out temporarily. Settings lets you rename the wheel, choose a palette, and adjust the spin duration, sound and confetti.

What are the starting chances?

This preset starts with 8 equally weighted entries. Each row has a 12.5% chance. Duplicate labels combine their chances. Changing a weight changes both the slice size and its chance of selection.

How do I save or share this wheel?

Changes are saved automatically on this device for this preset. Use Save file to download a backup, or Share to create a link to a copy of your choices and settings. A shared wheel does not include your results or receive your future edits.

Can I choose without repeating an entry?

Enable Eliminate winners in Settings. A winner is left out after you close the result, until you use Undo or Enable all. Repeated labels are separate entries, so delete duplicates if you want each label to appear only once.
