Help Center & Instructions

Start with a wheel

There are two ways in. If a preset wheel already covers your case — chores, dinner, party games, classroom, sports — open it and spin. If the options are yours, open the wheel editor and start from an empty wheel. Either way you end up in the same editor, with the same controls.

Adding your options

• **Type one at a time.** Enter the text and press Enter, or click Add.
• **Paste a list.** Copy a column from a spreadsheet or a document and paste it — one line becomes one segment. This is the fastest route for a class register or an entrant list.
• **Import a file.** CSV and TXT files are both accepted.
• **Start from a preset.** Open a ready-made wheel and edit the segments rather than beginning from blank.

What each setting does

• **Segments** — the options themselves. Add, remove, rename or reorder.
• **Colours** — one per segment. Cosmetic only; they do not change the odds.
• **Images** — attach an image to a segment by URL. Useful for prize wheels and picture activities.
• **Weights** — probability per segment. Weight 3 is three times as likely as weight 1. Leave them equal for a fair wheel.
• **Spin duration** — how long the wheel takes to slow to a stop. Longer spins build more suspense on a stream or projector.
• **Mystery Mode** — hides the segment labels until the wheel stops, so the result is a reveal rather than a countdown.
• **Sound** — a mute toggle in the top menu. Some browsers require you to click the page once before audio will play.

Saving, sharing and exporting

• **Save** — File → Save Wheel, with a name and description. Requires an account. Saved wheels reload from Load Wheel.
• **Share a link** — generate it from the wheel settings after saving. Anyone with the link opens the same wheel, not a copy that can drift.
• **Publish to the gallery** — enable Make Public so the wheel appears under Community Wheels.
• **Export/import** — Export Options downloads your segments as CSV or TXT, which you can re-import later or open in a spreadsheet.
• **Local vs saved** — the wheel in your browser survives a refresh, but it is only guaranteed across devices once saved to an account.

The wheels, briefly

• **Wheel spinner** — the general-purpose configurable wheel. Full editor, weights, images, mystery mode, results history.
• **Wheel of names** — the same wheel set up for picking a person from a list.
• **Date picker wheel** — picks between the dates or days you load. It does not read your calendar.
• **Colour picker wheel** — picks a colour from a palette, with your own palette supported.
• **Decision wheel** — for breaking a tie between options that are close in value.

The games

• **Money Wheel** — a multiplier wheel. Play solo, or at a table against AI dealers. Play money only.
• **Fortune Roulette** — roulette with a betting table against AI opponents. Play money only.
• **Spin Royale and Fortune Clash** — multiplayer rooms joined by code, two to eight players, spins visible to everyone in real time.
• **Quiz library** — trivia sets to load onto a wheel, or build your own.
• **AI tools** — the story starter, dinner debater and multiverse career wheels generate written output alongside the spin.

Running a draw people will trust

1. Build the wheel in front of the audience, or show it to them before you start, so the entrant list is visible and checkable.
2. Keep weights equal unless you have publicly said otherwise.
3. Turn on Mystery Mode if you want the result to land as a reveal rather than something the audience can call early.
4. Keep the spin history, or record the screen, so the draw can be verified afterwards.
5. Remove each winner before the next spin if you are drawing several places — otherwise the same entry can win twice.

When something goes wrong

• **Wheel will not spin** — check there are at least two options and that not all of them are hidden. Then refresh. If it persists, clear the cache or try another browser.
• **No sound** — unmute in the top menu, check device volume, allow audio for the site, and click the page once before spinning.
• **Slow or stuck on mobile** — update the browser, close other apps, and try landscape orientation for a larger wheel.
• **Multiplayer connection drops** — weak signal, a firewall, a VPN or brief server maintenance are the usual causes. Try without the VPN first.
• **Lost your wheel** — options live in the browser until you save them. Saving to an account is what makes a wheel permanent and portable.

Still stuck?
