What is Spinanywheel

Spinanywheel is a free browser-based tool for creating a spin the wheel random picker. It handles names, choices, and prize rounds with two drawing modes: Classic (single random draw) and Turn Queue (sequential turns without repeats until the list is exhausted). The interface splits into a left panel for adding options and a right panel for customization, with the spin button in the center. Everything runs locally in your browser—no account or sign-in is required.

Key features

• Classic mode: each spin returns one random result; all options have equal 11.1% chance in the default nine-item example, but visible weights let you adjust odds per item.
• Turn Queue mode: plans a series of draws, tracks each prize round, and can remove winners to prevent repeats—ideal for raffles where third, second, and first prizes come from one list.
• Visual customization: six wheel skins—Vivid (bright color blocks), Prism (translucent with soft light), Satin (vertical sheen), Aurora (deep luminous rings), Editorial (crisp contrast and fine lines), and Cloud (airy pastels). You can also upload a custom image to the wheel face and adjust frame, stage, and background.
• List management: add options manually, paste a list, import from Excel, then shuffle, sort, or clear. Each option displays its percentage chance.
• Results and export: spin history is recorded; you can remove winners and export the outcome list as a CSV file.
• Templates: ready-made wheels include Raffle Wheel (prize drawing sequence) and Spin The Wheel Yes Or No (two equally weighted answers to break a low-stakes tie).
• No account: data is saved locally in your browser with fullscreen mode and optional sound.

How to use it

1. Go to spinanywheel.com in any modern web browser.
2. Enter your options on the left—type them one by one, paste a list, or use the Excel import button.
3. Pick a mode: Classic for one random pick, Turn Queue for a planned sequence without repeats.
4. Customize the wheel on the right: choose a skin, upload a custom face image if desired, toggle sound, and adjust frame/stage settings.
5. Click the spin button in the center. The selected option appears, and its odds are shown as a percentage.
6. Review the results history, remove winners if necessary, and export the final list to CSV when finished.

Who it is for

Spinanywheel fits teachers calling on students, event hosts running raffles, teams making group decisions, and anyone needing a fair random selector for names or choices. It is especially useful for prize rounds that need multiple sequential draws from the same list, and for quick low-stakes decisions like choosing a restaurant or yes/no tiebreakers. Because no account is needed and data stays local, it works well for one-off or privacy-conscious users.

What to know before you use it

• The random selection is performed in your browser; it is not independently audited for high-stakes legal or financial draws. For official lotteries or regulated contests, use certified random drawing tools.
• Your wheel settings, history, and options are stored only locally in your browser. Clearing browser storage or using a different device will remove them; there is no cloud backup or account sync.
• The Yes/No template assumes you will honor the first result. Spinning repeatedly reduces its value as a fair tiebreaker.
• Excel import and CSV export are supported, but the site does not document specific file format requirements or error handling, so you may need to adjust your spreadsheet columns to match expectations.
• The tool is free, but the source does not state whether future features or ads might change the experience; current features are all available without payment.
