Cryptographic Randomness vs. Pseudo-Random Math
Unlike basic online wheels that rely on JavaScript's standard Math.random() (which uses pseudo-random algorithms that can exhibit subtle patterns over long periods), ToolNovus utilizes the native window.crypto.getRandomValues() API. This harnesses hardware entropy from your device's operating system, delivering true cryptographically secure random distribution for high-stakes raffles and contests.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the ToolNovus wheel spinner 100% fair and random?
Yes. The winning slice is calculated using the browser's cryptographically secure Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), ensuring strictly unbiased and tamper-proof random selection.
How many choices can I add to the wheel?
You can add from 2 up to 100+ choices or names. The wheel dynamically adjusts slice angles, typography, and contrast to keep all entries clearly visible.
Can I remove a winner so they do not win twice?
Yes. When the wheel stops on a winner, the celebration popup gives you a single-click 'Remove Winner' button, which automatically removes that entry from your list before the next spin.
Does the wheel spinner work on mobile devices?
Yes. The wheel is built on a responsive HTML5 Canvas supporting touch interactions, smooth easing animations, and audio ticking across iPhone, iPad, Android, and desktop screens.
