Arrow Spinner
Spin the arrow and let it pick a direction. Choose how many directions it can land on, then tap Spin or the dial.
How the arrow spinner works
Each spin picks one of the allowed directions with equal chance, using your browser's random number generator, then turns the arrow at least two full circles before it stops there. Nothing is sent to a server and the result is not stored after you close the page.
What you can use it for
- Deciding between two options. Set it to Left / Right and assign one choice to each side.
- Board games and classroom games. Use 4 ways for up, down, left and right moves, or 8 ways for compass directions.
- Drawing and movement prompts. Any angle gives a heading in degrees, measured clockwise from straight up.
