Spin the Bottle is a browser-based random picker. Add names to the list, spin, and a virtual wine bottle slows to a stop pointing at your winner — the same idea as a raffle drum or a coin flip, just more fun to watch. It runs entirely in your browser: nothing you type is uploaded anywhere, and saved lists live only on your own device.
Unlike a physical bottle on a table, every spin here uses your browser's random number generator, so the outcome isn't affected by how hard you spin, table tilt, or friction — every name has an equal shot unless you've weighted the list yourself by repeating an entry. That makes it a genuinely fair way to make a pick, not just a fun-looking one.
Picking "at random" by hand is harder than it sounds — people unconsciously favor names they recognize, the first or last option on a list, or whoever spoke up first. A spinner removes that bias entirely and also turns an ordinary decision into a small moment everyone in the room can watch and react to, which is why these tools are popular for anything from a two-person tiebreaker to a party of twenty.
Type one name per line into the entries box, click "Spin the bottle," and watch it land on a winner. Repeat a name to boost its odds, turn on "Remove after spin" to draw without repeats, save a list you'll reuse later, and check the winner history panel to see the last 50 results in order.
Yes — it's free, with no sign-up and no limit on how many times you spin.
No. Entries and saved lists are stored only in your browser's local storage. Nothing is sent to a server.
Each spin uses your browser's random number generator to pick a name with equal probability. Adding a name more than once increases its odds proportionally, which is a quick way to weight the draw.
Yes — pick red, white, champagne, or rosé glass under "Bottle style," and switch between light and dark table themes in Options.
Yes. The layout adjusts to any screen size, there's nothing to install, and it works the same way on desktop, tablet, and mobile browsers.
No hard limit — the wedges and text resize automatically as your list grows, though very long lists get harder to read on a small screen.
