ChoiceSpin updates

In preview

Updates from July 23, 2026

Landing templates now reopen with the right wheel

Each landing template now opens with its exact configured wheel instead of restoring an unrelated old edit from that URL. Edits stay live for the current visit, while reusable custom wheels can still be saved in My Wheels or downloaded as a file.

The homepage wheel guide is deeper and easier to scan

The guide below the wheel now explains customization, ready-made wheels, common uses, device support, randomness, local saving, and seven frequent questions in a larger readable layout. Page links use familiar blue underlined styling, and the search and social descriptions now match the visible tool.

Translated and factual content now fail safely

Homepage translations now use stable IDs and exact source checks. Production stops when copy is missing, stale, unsafe, or unapproved, and published landing guides require a current human factual review. Machine-created drafts stay outside the public package until their exact revision is approved.

Updates from July 22, 2026

Editable shared copies now open reliably

Spin-and-copy links and Quick Share now carry the selected wheel from the isolated viewer into a separate editable copy in the same tab. The handoff is limited to one short-lived session key, keeps the visitor's other saved data hidden, and clears failed or invalid copy attempts instead of leaving the page stuck.

Updates from July 21, 2026

Wheel pages now share one simple, configurable structure

Homepage and landing drafts now keep the real ChoiceSpin wheel and Entries editor first, then one plain bordered guide. Templates can change entries, wheel and page colors, spin and sound settings, and visible controls without creating a second interface. Localized drafts inherit those settings and stay out of search until reviewed.

Updates from July 19, 2026

Landing wheels are simpler and easier to browse

Landing wheel titles now sit below the tool, followed by plain instructions, prefilled entries, and related wheels. Each route uses the shared ChoiceSpin editor with its own entries, colors, and reviewed settings. A separate Wheels page groups ChoiceSpin-maintained presets without mixing them into the public Gallery.

Share actions now open before checking the network

Share, Quick Share, and Spin With Friends now open an accessible dialog immediately. Connection checks and retry messages stay inside that dialog, so a failed hosted feature no longer replaces the action with a small page-level warning.

Copyable links and public Gallery review are prepared for staging

The share dialog and private Gallery review workflow are ready for a protected staging review. Their hosted services remain off until the staging identity, App Check, rate-limit, cleanup, and rollback checks are complete, so no public wheel becomes discoverable without approval.

Updates from July 18, 2026

Landing wheel drafts now use the real ChoiceSpin wheel

Every landing-page preset now reuses the same ChoiceSpin wheel and entries box. Pages can preload entries, colors, and familiar phone emojis without adding another wheel design or landing-only controls. The Yes or No pages follow the same data-only setup, so their separate answer counter has been removed.

Share and Gallery are visible with safer boundaries

Share, Quick Share, Spin With Friends, and Gallery navigation are visible again. Private links and live rooms use separate server capability checks, while Gallery remains limited to intentionally published public wheels.

Updates from July 17, 2026

Browser compatibility is more reliable

ChoiceSpin now recognizes the native browser object format used by Chromium, Firefox, and WebKit, preventing a false project-save warning in Firefox and WebKit. Browsers without Web Audio also continue safely without a finish sound instead of reporting an error.

Updates from July 15, 2026

Website embeds and stream overlays now match ChoiceSpin

The website embed and stream overlay builders now use ChoiceSpin's familiar wheel design and spin behavior. The website page creates responsive embed code; the stream page creates an OBS or Streamlabs Browser Source URL and explains audience uses. Both remain review-only, and the stream page clearly says chat commands are not connected yet.

Help and legal pages are easier to understand

The Help, Privacy, Cookies, and Terms pages now have separate visual identities for guided help, local data boundaries, browser storage, and usage rules. Help adds searchable answers and visual guides. All four use calmer optional motion, clearer summaries, working light and dark themes, and plain explanations of features that are currently paused.

In preview

Updates from July 13, 2026

Draft pages can be reviewed without becoming publishable

Pages awaiting human approval can now be generated into a separate review-only package where every HTML page is kept out of search. The review package never replaces the production build, and production verification rejects its marker so the two release paths cannot be confused.

Production promotion now requires an exact checkpoint

The production command now rejects dirty worktrees, the wrong Vercel project, stale build receipts, and missing or expired one-use approval. Preview verification also checks the exact disabled capability file and all feature-off API responses before a candidate can move forward.

An unused sharing backend was retired

The old Firebase sharing Function and its separate dependency tree were removed after confirming that the current site does not use them. This closes an unauthenticated legacy write path and prevents it from being redeployed accidentally.

Public sharing is held offline for safety review

Online share links, public Gallery discovery, live rooms, advertising, and analytics are disabled in the production candidate. The underlying preview work now fails closed while ChoiceSpin completes hosted abuse, privacy, consent, moderation, and rollback checks.

Keyboard-safe navigation and dialogs

The mobile menu and shared wheel dialogs now keep keyboard focus in the open panel, return focus to the control that opened it, and stay out of the accessibility tree while closed. Nested Customize color and discard panels also isolate the controls behind them.

More complete translations in shared controls

Customize, preset theme names, Quick Share, live-room errors, shared-wheel importing, and winner filenames now use the same translated UI contract across all seven homepages. Translated landing pages remain held out of search until a native-language review, and the Pokémon tool remains held out until a separate IP review.

Updates from July 12, 2026

Shared wheels now match the main ChoiceSpin wheel

Shared and public links now run on the same wheel, pointer, sounds, winner effects, and confetti as the main page. Copying fetches the wheel by its link instead of moving large image data through browser storage, while safer image limits, stronger link IDs, cleaner social previews, and a focused phone-friendly layout make sharing more reliable.

More polished guides and smoother page motion

The classroom, streamer, fairness, randomness, and About guides now respond properly to light and dark themes, use clearer purpose-built visuals, and keep motion optional for people who prefer less animation. The main page guide below the wheel also has calmer scroll reveals and more consistent interactive details.

A faster, clearer community wheel gallery

The gallery preview now contains only public wheels shared by ChoiceSpin users, while ChoiceSpin's maintained wheel pages stay separate. Recent wheels, relevant search, and Surprise me are easier to use, old broken previews fall back cleanly, and the page now works in Live Server with stronger mobile, keyboard, accessibility, and loading behavior.

Updates from July 11, 2026

Safer groundwork for complete wheel projects

ChoiceSpin's preview code now prepares full multi-wheel projects as one checked change, limits image decoding and memory, and keeps an exact recoverable current copy. The new path stays turned off until its editor and browser checks are complete.

In preview

Updates from July 10, 2026

Stronger randomness and a test you can run

Modern browsers now use Web Crypto for wheel picks, and the new Randomness Audit can simulate up to 100,000 spins locally so anyone can inspect the results without sending their entries away.

More ready-made wheels in more languages

The preview expands the collection from 13 to 23 English wheel tools and adds dedicated Yes or No wheels in Spanish, French, and German.

A cleaner guide below the wheel

The section after the wheel now has a clearer how-to, ready-made wheels, use cases, trust links, features, and common questions, with the layout checked on desktop and small phones.

Faster pages and safer releases

Localized homepages now bundle their shared files into two downloads instead of 119, while new build checks verify public files, page routes, and previews before a release can move forward.

Updates from July 4, 2026

Thirteen tools for common decisions

ChoiceSpin added dedicated wheels for names, numbers, teams, food, colors, letters, decisions, giveaways, Truth or Dare, coin flips, Yes or No, and other everyday choices.

Guides for fairness, classrooms, and streams

New pages explain how the wheel chooses a result and give teachers and streamers practical ways to use ChoiceSpin with groups.

See how ChoiceSpin handles fairness

The homepage became easier to understand

The guide below the wheel was rebuilt in plain language, with clearer use cases, features, trust information, and next steps across every supported homepage language.

Spin the improved ChoiceSpin wheel

Sitemaps built to grow with the site

One large sitemap became a small index with separate sections for core pages, wheel tools, resources, and languages, while real last-updated dates are preserved.

Updates from May 17, 2026

Sharing became safer behind the scenes

The system for shared wheels, previews, and activity tracking moved to authenticated requests with stricter path checks and tested fallbacks, making an important part of ChoiceSpin easier to trust and maintain.

Updates from May 16, 2026

Spanish and Japanese arrived

Spanish and Japanese joined the supported homepage languages, and About pages were added across English and all seven localized versions.

Live rooms got their own chat

People in a live room can chat by name or as a guest, send quick reactions, see typing activity, and catch up on unread messages without leaving the wheel.

Up to six synced wheels on one screen

A new multi-wheel view can show up to six synchronized copies of the same wheel, giving classrooms, streams, and group games a bigger way to present a spin.

More control in Advanced mode

Advanced wheels can intentionally include blank slices, while the first-visit starter flow became clearer and safer to reset.

Updates from April 24, 2026

The wheel comes first

The homepage was reorganized so visitors reach the working wheel immediately, followed by a plain guide to spinning, common uses, saving, sharing, fairness, privacy, and common questions.

Localization became repeatable

Localized homepages moved to a generator-backed system, making layout and search information more consistent whenever the main experience changes.

Updates from April 4, 2026

A wheel built for real use

The first version we can reliably trace already supported Basic and Advanced editing, colors, images, sounds, presentation controls, and fullscreen use.

Save, share, and spin together

My Wheels, Quick Share, live rooms, ready-made gallery wheels, and image or video result exports made wheels reusable and easy to send to other people.

The first multilingual version we can trace

The earliest preserved project record includes English plus German, French, Indonesian, Italian, and Brazilian Portuguese homepages.
