PROFESSOR VORTEX'S DINNER-WHEEL RULES

How to Use a Dinner Picker Wheel.

Three simple rules help you get a useful answer from these ready-made dinner wheels.

Pick the Closest-Fit Wheel

Start with the wheel that best fits tonight: everyday dinners, quick meals, lighter ideas, new dishes, or cuisines.

Agree on Respins First

Does the first result win, or will you allow another spin? Decide together before the dinner wheel lands.

Use Your Reaction

Disappointed by the result? That reaction is useful. Close the result and spin the same wheel again—or try a different dinner wheel.

Vortex says: the wheel breaks the tie. Your reaction helps finish the decision.

PROFESSOR VORTEX’S FIELD GUIDE Free Wheel Spinner Guide Learn the free wheel, Snap Spins, Overlay Mode, customization, Lab Packs, and Vortex Pro—without the boring manual.

START HERE

Use the free wheel spinner in three steps

Every published wheel is free to open, customize, and spin without a spin limit. Use its existing choices or replace them with yours.

1

Load your choices

Use the wheel as it is, edit an option, paste a spreadsheet column, or import a list containing up to 1,000 entries.

2

Hit Spin

Press the Spin button and let the wheel make the pick.

3

Use the winner

Spin again, remove the winner, pin the result, assign points, or share the customized wheel with someone else.

THE FULL EXPERIMENT

Free random wheel features and controls

Tap any section. Controls can vary by wheel, device, and plan.

Spin controls Spin, Multi-pick, Eliminate, and Undo

Spin

Press Spin for one result. After your first button spin, supported wheels can also be flicked with your pointer or finger.

Multi-pick

Run several rounds automatically when you need multiple names, choices, or winners.

Eliminate

Turn Eliminate on to remove each winner before the next round. This is useful when nobody should be selected twice.

Undo

Made a change you did not want? Undo can restore a recent wheel state, including an eliminated result.

Quick Tweaks Edit choices, colors, stickers, textures, and odds

Open Quick Tweaks when you want to change what is on the wheel.

Add or edit options: rename individual segments or add a new one.
Bulk Add: paste a full column from Excel or Google Sheets, or paste names separated by lines or commas.
Spreadsheet import: import the first column of a CSV, TSV, or TXT file. In Google Sheets, use File → Download → Comma-separated values (.csv), or simply copy the cells and paste them into Bulk Add.
Up to 1,000 entries: every wheel supports large lists. The editor displays 50 rows at a time to stay responsive on phones, tablets, and school computers.
Shuffle or sort: quickly rearrange your wheel.
Colors: choose a segment color and readable text color.
Weights: increase or decrease an option’s chance of being selected.
Stickers: place artwork on individual wheel segments.
Textures: add full-segment artwork behind the label and sticker.
Brand Kit: build a reusable color and logo setup. Saving, applying, and AI tools depend on your plan.

Spin Studio Change how the wheel looks, sounds, and celebrates

Title and subtitle

Give your wheel a name and add a short instruction or description.

Countdown

Add a countdown before the wheel begins spinning and choose its length.

Sound and voice

Turn wheel sounds on or off, choose a winner voice, edit the winning phrase, or use recording tools when available.

Winner effects

Adjust confetti, winner reveals, center artwork, and other spin effects available for that wheel.

Teams and points

Set up players or teams and attach points to winning results.

Fidget Mode

Open the center-vortex spinner for a smaller interactive spin with speed, snap, and recenter controls.

When the wheel lands Handle the result and keep the experiment moving

The winner panel shows the selected segment and the actions available for that result.

Spin again: close the result and run another round.
Remove the winner: take the selected segment off the wheel.
Pin the result: keep it in Winner’s Vault.
Assign points: attach the result to a player or team when those tools are active.
Send Spin Invite: create a shareable invitation containing your custom wheel.

Winner’s Vault Keep the results that matter

Winner’s Vault keeps pinned results from your spins. Depending on the active wheel tools, a saved result can include its segment, points, player or team, date, and time.

Use it for prize drawings, classroom rounds, tournaments, challenges, attendance, or any game where you need to remember what already happened.

Share your wheel Send the setup—not just a screenshot

Wheel link

Create a link that opens the wheel with its shared setup.

Spin Invite

Send a more playful invitation with your wheel and a custom note.

Overlay link

Share a presentation-ready version that opens directly in Overlay Mode.

Anyone with a shared link may be able to open the wheel, so do not place private or sensitive information in segment labels.

Overlay Mode Present a cleaner wheel on a shared screen

Overlay Mode removes most editing distractions and gives the wheel a cleaner presentation layout. Use it for classrooms, meetings, parties, events, games, recordings, and shared screens. The current public tool provides Overlay Mode; it does not include a separate Streamer Mode.

Save and organize Keep wheels you want to use again

Vortex Pro dashboards let you save customized wheel setups, organize them into boards, pin favorites, duplicate versions, and reopen useful wheels without rebuilding them.

Look for the dashboard-plus or Save control near the top of the wheel. If the feature is locked, the wheel will show the plan needed to use it.

Randomness and weights How the wheel chooses a result

The wheel uses cryptographically strong random values when your browser supports them. With equal weights, each segment has an equal chance of being selected.

Changing a segment’s weight intentionally changes its odds. A segment with a larger weight is more likely to win, but no individual spin is guaranteed.

Spin Science can run large test batches and compare expected percentages with actual results. It is useful for checking weights—not predicting the next spin.

What is free—and what is optional Free wheels, one Vortex Pro plan, and Lab Packs

Free wheels

Every published wheel is free to open, customize, and spin without a spin limit. The free editor supports as many as 1,000 entries, spreadsheet-style input, file import, weights, colors, and the available wheel controls.

Lab Packs

A Lab Pack is an optional, one-time themed asset collection usable across all wheels. Each product page identifies its included stickers, textures, and Center Vortex artwork.

Vortex Pro

One optional $9.99 monthly plan unlocks the complete premium asset library, Creator Lab, Inventor Lab, Center Vortex options, Brand Kit tools, saved wheels, boards, and dashboards. It does not unlock extra spins because spins are already unlimited.

A locked premium asset will take you directly to its Lab Pack when it belongs to one, or to Vortex Pro when it is part of the complete subscription library.

Snap Spins: free ready-made wheels Skip setup and spin a focused decision wheel

Snap Spins are free, ready-to-use mini wheels for everyday choices. Open a category, choose a wheel, and spin immediately; no subscription is required for the wheel or its spins.

Supper Snaps

Spin for dinner, takeout, cooking, and other meal ideas.

Sweet Snaps

Choose desserts, baked treats, flavors, and sweet ideas.

Sip Snaps

Pick coffee, tea, smoothies, mocktails, and other drinks.

Chill Snaps

Choose movies, games, hobbies, and lower-key activities.

Party Snaps

Spin for party games, prompts, themes, and snack ideas.

Reset Snaps

Pick a quick break, activity, hobby, study break, or next task.

How Spin the Wheel Lab is different A full decision toolkit—not only a name picker

Spin the Wheel Lab is an alternative to tools such as Wheel of Names and Picker Wheel for people who want a customizable random wheel plus ready-made decision experiences in one place.

Its verified free core combines unlimited spins, up to 1,000 editable entries, spreadsheet and CSV/TSV/TXT import, weighted choices, Multi-pick, Eliminate, Undo, winner tools, teams and points, sound and voice controls, sharing, Overlay Mode, and the themed Snap Spins library. Optional purchases focus on reusable creative assets, creation tools, and saved-workspace features—not access to the published wheels themselves.

Competing products change over time and may offer overlapping features. Compare current product pages for the exact workflow, storage, branding, and customization options you need.

Something not working? Fast fixes for sound, loading, and shared wheels

No sound? Press Spin once. Phones and browsers often require a tap before allowing audio or voice.
No vibration? Haptics depend on your device, browser, and system settings.
The wheel will not load? Refresh the page and check that content blockers are not preventing Shopify assets from loading.
A shared wheel looks different? Open the newest link and confirm that its required wheel or plan is available.
Flick-to-spin is not working? Press the main Spin button once to unlock flick controls on supported wheels.
Still stuck? Use the site’s contact link and include the wheel name, device, and browser you were using.

Do I need an account?

No. Every wheel can be opened, customized, and spun for free. An account is used for purchases, saved dashboards, and Vortex Pro tools.

How many names can I add?

You can add up to 1,000 names, choices, prizes, students, or other entries to one wheel.

Yes. Copy a column from Google Sheets and paste it into Bulk Add, or download the sheet as CSV and import its first column.

Yes. There is no five-spin limit and no paid-wheel cutoff. Spin any published wheel as many times as you need.

What do Lab Packs and Vortex Pro unlock?

Lab Packs are permanent themed asset collections. Vortex Pro unlocks the complete premium library, creation labs, Brand Kit, saved wheels, boards, and dashboards.

What are Snap Spins?

Snap Spins are ready-made free decision wheels organized into Supper, Sweet, Sip, Chill, Party, and Reset categories. They can be opened and spun without purchasing a plan.

Is there a Streamer Mode?

No separate Streamer Mode is currently available. Use Overlay Mode for a cleaner wheel layout on presentations, recordings, events, classroom displays, and other shared screens.

That’s the whole experiment. Now stop reading and spin something.
