About this classroom name picker
Spin the Wheel has a classroom mode made for a projector or interactive whiteboard: a full-screen wheel, the last pick in big letters, the few names before it, and keyboard controls so you can spin from anywhere in the room.
Everything stays on your device: no account, nothing uploaded, and it works offline once loaded.
How to use it
- Paste your class list into the Entries box (or make a wheel for each class from the wheel menu and save them).
- Press Open classroom mode, or the full-screen button at the top of the app.
- Press Space or the Spin button to pick. Press R to turn Remove the winner on or off, and Esc to leave.

Questions
Do student names leave my computer?
No. Names are stored only in this browser on your device. There is no account and nothing is uploaded, which keeps class lists private.
Can I keep a wheel for each class?
Yes. Make a wheel per class from the wheel menu; three of your own are free, and Spin the Wheel Pro allows as many as you need.
How do I make sure everyone gets a turn?
Turn on Remove the winner (press R in classroom mode). Each student comes off the wheel after being picked, until you put them all back.
