How does the random wheel spinner work?

When you click the spin button, the wheel rotates for a random duration and stops at a randomly selected option. The winner is determined by where the pointer lands when the wheel stops spinning.
Can I customize the wheel with my own options?
Yes, you can fully customize the wheel with your own options. You can add, edit, or remove entries, change the colors of individual segments, adjust the text size and color, and save your configurations for future use.
Is there a limit to how many options I can add to the wheel?
While technically there's no hard limit, we recommend keeping the number of options between 2 and 50 for optimal visibility and usability. Adding too many options may make individual segments too small to read easily.
