About this wheel
Stop overthinking choices that are basically tied
Most stalled decisions are stalled because the options are roughly equal. If one were clearly better, you'd have picked it already. A decision wheel breaks that tie instantly: type your options one per line, hit spin, and every enabled entry gets an equal chance. The wheel redraws as you type, so you can add or cut options right up until the spin.
It works as a choice randomizer for anything you can put into words. Spin between weekend plans or trip destinations, pick which item on your to-do list to start first, or settle a baby name debate that's gone around the table three times. It's good for narrowing a gift shortlist too. The winner lands in the result box and in the visible Results history, so a group decision has a record everyone watched happen.
If you secretly lean toward one option, you don't have to pretend otherwise. Advanced mode lets you give entries per-entry weights, so you can tilt the wheel toward your favorite. And since the weights show up in the setup where anyone can see them, there's no hidden trick involved. Recurring dilemmas can be saved to My Wheels on your device, or sent to someone else as a Quick Share link.
How to use
How to use the decision wheel
- List your options. Type or paste your choices into the entries list, one per line. The wheel updates as you type.
- Trim the list to real contenders. Delete anything you'd be disappointed to land on. If an option isn't acceptable, it doesn't belong on the wheel.
- Spin the wheel. Click the Spin button or the wheel itself. The slice under the pointer is your decision.
- Commit to the result. Take the answer and move on. If your gut sank when it landed, that reaction just told you what you actually wanted.
Tip: only put options on the wheel you're genuinely willing to accept. The spin works best when every slice is a real yes.
Ideas and use cases
Decisions people hand to the wheel
Any list of acceptable options is one spin away from a decision. These come up the most:
Home
Tonight's plans
The default wheel comes loaded with movie night, game night, go out, and stay in. Add your own plans and let the evening pick itself.
Work
Where to start on the to-do list
When every task feels equally urgent, put them all on the wheel and start wherever it lands. Starting somewhere beats stalling.
Gifts
Gift idea shortlists
Down to three solid gift ideas and stuck? Spin. Each one already passed your filter, so the winner is a safe pick.
Family
Baby name shortlists
Put the finalists on the wheel for a low-stakes tiebreaker, or just to see how you both react when a name actually wins.
Travel
Trip destinations
List the cities or weekend spots you keep debating and let the wheel book the argument shut. Save the wheel to reuse for the next trip.
Groups
Group deadlocks
Open a Spin With Friends room so everyone watches the same spin land live. A shared result is much easier to accept than one person's call.
