Spin the wheel name picker

A Wheel of Names Nobody Has to Type.

People scan a QR code and land on the wheel themselves. You spin. One name is picked, and the wheel turns on every phone in the room too. Who answers next, who presents first, who gets the last slice.

Versus a typed wheel

The room fills the wheel, not you.

Typing names into a wheel site

  • Thirty names typed while the class waits
  • Only your screen shows the spin
  • Typos, duplicates, “you missed me”

A shared wheel

  • Everyone adds themselves in seconds
  • The spin plays on every phone
  • Each person’s slice is their own colour
Good for

Classrooms, teams, tables.

Class

Cold calling, kindly

The wheel chooses, so it’s never personal. Remove picked students so everyone gets a turn.

Team

Who runs the retro

Spin at the end of stand-up. Keep everyone in the pool so it’s a fresh draw every week.

Games

Who goes first

Faster than rock, paper, scissors and nobody argues with a wheel.

FAQ

Questions, answered.

How is this different from other wheel-of-names sites?

You don’t type the names. People join from their phones and the spin plays on every phone too.

Can I still type names in?

Yes. Add names by hand alongside people who joined.

Can the same person be picked twice?

Your choice. Tick Remove winner from the pool, or leave everyone in.

Is the pick really random?

Yes. The server picks uniformly at random when you spin. The animation just shows the result.

Round and round… and it’s you.
