About this tool
The name picker wheel is a fun, visual wheel of names: type in a list, give it a spin, and it lands on one person at random. It's perfect for classrooms (who answers next?), raffles and giveaways, or simply deciding whose turn it is — a fair, unbiased pick every time.
How to use it
- Enter the names, one per line.
- Tap Spin.
- The wheel slows down and highlights the chosen name.
- Remove the name if you want, then spin again.
