Yes or No Wheel

A yes or no wheel answers a closed question at random: you ask, it spins, and it lands on Yes or No. It is a quick way to break a tie with yourself when both options are fine, to settle a friendly argument, or to add a bit of suspense to a game. Think of it as a coin flip you can watch, with your question written above it.

It also works as a yes or no generator for games and classrooms: does the next player take a dare, does the class get five extra minutes of reading, is tonight’s movie a comedy?

1. Type your question in the question field, up to 140 characters, for example “Should I order pizza tonight?”.
2. Press Spin, tap the wheel or press Ctrl+Enter.
3. Read the verdict: the result shows your question with its answer, such as “Should I order pizza tonight? → YES”.
4. Share it if you like. The link carries both the question and the answer, so your friends see exactly what was asked.

Yes is always green and No always red, both with white text that stays readable on a phone in bright light.

Some questions deserve a third option. Turn on “Add Maybe” and the wheel splits into three equal slices: Yes, No and a yellow Maybe. Each answer then has exactly one chance in three, or 33.3%. Maybe is handy when a refusal is too harsh, for example “Do we go out this weekend?”, or as a built-in “ask again later”.

One spin feels too quick for a real decision? Choose best of 3 or best of 5. The wheel keeps spinning on its own, using the fast style after the first spin, and stops as soon as one answer has a majority. The verdict is then displayed, so nobody can argue about which spin counted.

A best of 3 ends after two spins half the time, whenever the first two answers match. A best of 5 ends after three spins 25% of the time, after four spins 37.5% of the time and goes the full five 37.5% of the time. Either way, Yes and No still have exactly the same chance of winning the series.

The slice sets option repeats the Yes and No pattern up to five times, for a fuller wheel with ten slices that is more fun to watch. It changes only the look: the odds stay at exactly 50% each, and the page reminds you of that.

The scoreboard counts every Yes, No and Maybe since you last reset it. Use it to see how a series of questions turned out, or to keep a tally during a party game.

For small things, absolutely. When two options are equally good, spending ten minutes deciding costs more than either choice. And there is a useful side effect: if the wheel says No and you feel disappointed, you have just learned that you wanted the Yes. Many people spin precisely to find out how they feel.

For serious matters such as health, money or work, let the wheel be a game, not an advisor. For everything else, from what to eat tonight to who pays the bill, a spin is a perfectly good tie-breaker. To pick a number instead of an answer, try the random number generator.

Yes. The answer is drawn with your browser’s cryptographic random generator before the wheel moves, and both slices are exactly half the circle. Each spin is independent: after three Yes answers in a row, which happens 12.5% of the time, the next spin is still 50/50. The fairness page lets you run thousands of spins and compare the counts yourself.
