Why use Yes or No Wheel?
Use a clear visual prompt for casual choices when either answer is acceptable. Switch between Yes/No, Yes/No/Maybe or custom weighted choices. Do not use a random result as a substitute for medical, legal or financial advice.
How to use it
- Select a preset or enter custom answers.
- Adjust weights only when unequal chances are intended.
- Spin and read the text result.
- Use the history to review previous casual choices.
Common use cases
- Resolve a playful tie
- Choose whether to do an activity
- Create a discussion prompt
Practical examples
- Choose whether to play one more casual round.
- Add Maybe when the group wants a neutral option.
- Create a discussion prompt with disclosed unequal weights.
How it works
Random values come from window.crypto.getRandomValues(). Lists are shuffled with an unbiased Fisher–Yates process. For a wheel, the result is chosen before the animation; for weighted entries, each positive weight defines its share of the total probability.
Limits to understand
- Not medical, legal or financial advice.
- A random answer cannot evaluate consequences.
- Only include outcomes you are prepared to accept.
