What the yes or no wheel does
The wheel has equal slices for Yes and No, so both answers are equally likely. Spin it and the wheel slows down and stops on your answer. Turn on Maybe to add a third slice.
A short history below the wheel keeps track of your recent spins. Everything happens in your browser, so there's nothing to wait for between spins.
How to use it
- Think of a yes-or-no question. Say it out loud or keep it in your head.
- Add Maybe if you want. Turn on the Maybe option for a third possible answer.
- Spin the wheel. Watch it slow down and land on Yes, No or Maybe.
- Check your history. Recent results are listed below the wheel, which is handy for best of three.
- Prefer no animation? If your device is set to reduce motion, the wheel skips the spin and shows the result straight away.
Ways to use it
Small everyday choices
Pizza tonight? A walk before work? When both options are fine, let the wheel break the tie.
Party games
Use the wheel as the judge. Does that answer count? Does the team get the bonus point? Spin and move on.
Classroom moments
Children love watching it spin. Use it to decide whether to play one more round or who answers the bonus question.
Stories and role-play
Let the wheel decide what happens next in a story or a tabletop game. Will the door open? Is the stranger telling the truth?
Finding out what you really want
Spin, then notice how you feel about the answer. If you're disappointed, you've learned what you were hoping for.
Why a random answer can help
It sounds odd to let a wheel decide, but for small choices it really can help. When two options are equally good, thinking about them for longer rarely makes things clearer. It just uses up time and energy. A quick spin ends the loop.
The answer also gives you something to react to. If you feel relief when the wheel lands, go with it. If you feel a small pang of disappointment, you've found your real preference – and you can choose the other option with a clear conscience. Either way, you've made a decision and can get on with your day.
Tips
- Ask clear questions. "Should I…?" works better than a question with several parts.
- Play best of three using the history if one spin feels too sudden.
- Listen to your gut. Relief or disappointment at the result tells you something.
- Need more than yes or no? Use the decision wheel with your own options, or flip a coin.
- Keep it for small stuff. Health, money and safety decisions deserve real thought and good advice.
Questions
Is the yes or no wheel really random?
Yes. Your browser picks the result at random, and Yes and No have equal slices, so each is just as likely. Earlier spins have no effect on the next one.
Is this a yes or no oracle?
Only for fun. The wheel can't see the future – it's pure chance. Many people still enjoy asking it like an oracle and seeing how they feel about the answer.
Does it work like a yes no generator?
Yes. It gives you a random yes or no every time; the wheel just makes it more fun to watch. With reduced motion on in your device settings, the answer appears instantly.
Can I add Maybe to the wheel?
Yes. Turn on the Maybe option and the wheel gets a third slice of the same size.
Can I see my earlier answers?
Yes. Your recent spins are listed in the history below the wheel, so you can play best of three or best of five.
Why does the wheel answer without spinning?
Your device is probably set to reduce motion. The wheel respects that setting and shows the result straight away instead of animating.
Can I put my own answers on the wheel?
Use the decision wheel. It lets you type between 2 and 30 options of your own.
Is it free?
Yes. It's free with no sign-up, no cookies and no tracking.
