How to Use Wheel Name Picker

Using the Wheel Name Picker is simple and intuitive. Follow this quick guide to get started with creating your custom spin wheels in seconds.

1. Add Your Items

Type your items (names, numbers, choices) into the text box and press Enter or click the "Add Item" button. You can also paste a list of items separated by commas or new lines to add multiple items at once.

2. Spin the Wheel

Once you have at least two items on the grid, click the glowing purple Start Draw button (or press the Spacebar on your keyboard) to begin the animation. The picker will randomly bounce between the items before slowing down to reveal the final winner!

3. Remove Winners (Optional)

If you're doing multiple draws and don't want the same person to win twice, you can check the "Auto-remove winner after 4s" option. The winning item will be highlighted and then automatically removed from the board before your next draw.

4. Save and Load Lists

Need to reuse the same list of students or team members every week? Click "Save List" to give your current list a name and store it. Later, you can click "Load List" to instantly bring those items back to the board.
