About this tool

This roulette picks one item at random from the options you enter. Use it for speaking order, chores, meals, destinations, or whenever you need to make a choice.

The pick happens in your browser. Your items and the removal setting are kept in this browser for 30 days from the last save and are not sent to a server.

Try a use case and check the result

Compare removal after a pick with duplicated labels, checking remaining entries and what duplicates mean.

Example buttons replace the inputs and settings above and calculate. Restore previous input steps back one example at a time. After trying multiple examples, repeat restore to return to your original input. This history is lost when the page closes.

Pick one of A/B/C and remove its entry

Input and settings

Entries: A / B / C / Remove picked entry: on

Expected result

Winner is A, B or C. After completion, 2/3 entries remain; the input lines stay unchanged.

Give B two entries without removing picks

Input and settings

Entries: A / B / B / Remove picked entry: off

Expected result

Winner is A or B; all 3/3 entries remain. B occupies two draw slots.

How to read the result

Each input line is a draw slot. Entering B twice assigns it two slots. With removal enabled, only the selected slot is removed, even for repeated labels. One result does not establish statistical fairness. Check the remaining-entry count after the animation completes.

Scope and limits

Use 2–100 non-empty trimmed lines. Entries and removal preference are saved in this browser. Applying example input resets the draw state, without recovering prior winners or excluded slots. Restore recovers original input/settings with all entries available again. Example and restore controls are disabled while the wheel spins.

Verification: independent checks compare real winners against candidate labels and remaining counts 2/3 or 3/3. Browser checks prevent overlapping example actions and verify original text, saved settings and full candidate restoration after two examples.

Duplicate names and removal after a pick

With three lines A, A, B, either A has a combined chance of 2/3 and B has a chance of 1/3, because every line is one candidate.

If removal is enabled and an A wins, only that selected row is removed. The other A remains and can win next. All rows with the same name are not removed together.

Frequently asked questions

Is the pick fair?

Each line is picked with the same chance. If you enter the same item more than once, that item has a higher chance of being selected.

Can I remove an item after it is selected?

Yes. Turn on “Remove selected item after each spin.” Once every item has been selected, choose “Reset picks” to add them all back.

Are my items saved?

Your items and removal setting are stored in this browser's localStorage for 30 days from the last save. A history of results is not saved.

Can I use it on a phone?

Yes. It works on phones too. When there are many items, labels on the wheel are shortened to keep it readable.

How many items can I add?

You can add up to 100 items. At least two items are needed to spin.

Inputs and storage

Keep a separate copy before clearing or resetting. This browser autosaves the item list and the remove-after-pick setting. Data is not restored when read 30 days or more after its last save. Clearing site data or storage restrictions may remove it sooner.

Favorites and language preferences are stored separately and may be lost when site data is cleared. Tool resets and site-data deletion do not delete files already downloaded to your device.
