How to use the yes or no wheel
- Type your question, or just think of it.
- Choose Yes/No or Yes/No/Maybe.
- Press Spin and wait for the wheel to stop.
The coin-flip trick for decisions
Psychologists often suggest flipping a coin (or spinning a wheel) for hard choices, not to obey it, but to notice your reaction. If you feel relief when it lands on "Yes", you have your answer. If you feel let down, you wanted "No" all along.
Fun ways to use it
- Should we get dessert?
- Truth-or-dare style party questions
- Classroom "will it float?" predictions
- Deciding who goes first in a game
Need more than two options? Use spin the wheel with your own list, or the random number generator.

Frequently asked questions
Is the yes or no wheel random?
Yes. The answer is chosen with your browser's cryptographic random number generator before the wheel turns, so Yes and No each have an equal chance (or one in three when Maybe is included).
Can I add "Maybe"?
Yes. Switch to Yes / No / Maybe for a three-way wheel. You can also choose "best of 3" style by spinning three times and keeping the majority.
Should I really let a wheel decide?
For small choices like what to eat or whether to go out, absolutely. For bigger decisions, notice how you feel when the answer lands: if you are disappointed, you probably wanted the other option all along.
Does it keep a history?
Yes. Your recent answers and the Yes/No count for this visit are shown under the wheel. Nothing is stored after you close the page.
Can I use my own options?
For custom choices, such as restaurants or names, use the spin the wheel tool, which lets you type any list.
