How to use the decision maker

  1. Type your options, one per line. Replace the examples with your real choices.
  2. Spin. Click the wheel or press Space.
  3. Go with it, or use one of the tricks below for bigger decisions.

There are five ready-made lists: Should I? for yes, no and not-yet answers; Pick one of three and Pick one of four for your own options; This weekend for weekend plans; and Fortune answers for a playful, fortune-teller style reply.

The gut-check trick

Sometimes you already know what you want, and a spin helps you see it. Spin, and pay attention to your first reaction when the result pops up. Relief means the wheel picked well. A sinking “oh no” means you wanted something else. Either way, you’ve decided.

Tip: Try the gut-check with Keep the result hidden until I reveal it turned on in Settings. The pause before you click Reveal makes your reaction easier to notice.

Best of three for bigger calls

One spin can feel too random for something that matters. Spin three or five times and go with the option that wins most. Open the Results tab and switch to Scores to see the count.

Lean the odds

Not all options are equal. Type a number before each option that matches how much you like it, like 3, Tacos, or tick Weights and set the numbers in the list view. The wheel still decides, but your favorites get bigger slices. It’s a nice middle ground between choosing yourself and leaving it all to chance.

Good decisions for a wheel

  • Where to eat: or use the food wheel with ready-made lists.
  • What to do this weekend: stay in, go out, or take a day trip.
  • Which task first: put your to-do list on the wheel and start with whatever it picks.
  • Who goes first: names on the wheel, one spin.
  • Which gift, outfit or paint color: when every option is fine and you’re just stuck.

For a simple yes or no, use the yes or no wheel. For exactly two options, try the A or B wheel.

Questions people ask

Is it a good idea to let a wheel make decisions?

For small choices where every option is fine, yes. It ends the back-and-forth and saves time. For big life decisions, use the spin as a gut check: notice whether you feel relieved or disappointed by the result. That feeling often tells you what you really want.

How do I make some options more likely?

Type the weight before the option, like 3, Pizza, or tick Weights and give each option a number. An option with weight 3 is three times as likely to win as one with weight 1.

What is best of three?

Spin three times and go with the option that comes up most. The Scores view in the Results tab counts the wins for you.

How many options can I add?

Up to 10,000, but for decisions, two to eight is the sweet spot. The fewer options, the easier it is to live with the result.
