Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about the free random name picker wheel — how it works, saving lists, fairness, and more.
How does the random picker wheel work?
Add your names or items to the list, click Spin, and the animated wheel randomly lands on one entry. Each spin is independent and fair, giving every name an equal chance.
Is this wheel spinner free to use?
Yes, it's completely free with no sign-up, downloads, or limits. Create and spin as many wheels as you like.
Can I save my lists and reuse them?
Yes. Click Save List to store your current entries in your browser, then Load Saved to restore them later. Your data stays on your device and is never sent to a server.
How random are the results?
Results are generated using a randomization algorithm that gives every entry an equal probability, making each spin genuinely fair and unbiased.
Can I remove a winner and spin again?
Yes. After each spin you can click Remove & Spin Again to eliminate the selected name, letting you draw multiple winners without repeats — ideal for ranked draws or multi-prize giveaways.
How many names can I add?
There's no practical limit. Add a handful of names or a long list — the wheel adjusts automatically to fit every entry.
What can I use the random picker for?
It's perfect for giveaways, raffles, classroom participation, team selection, assigning tasks, choosing who goes first, or settling group decisions.
Is my data stored anywhere?
Your lists are saved locally in your browser via localStorage, not sent to a server, keeping your data private and on your device.
Does it work on mobile devices?
Yes, the wheel is fully responsive and works smoothly on smartphones, tablets, and desktops without any installation.
Can I customize the entries on the wheel?
Yes. Add, edit, or delete entries anytime using the list panel, and the wheel updates instantly to reflect your changes before each spin.
