Friday night in the group chat
Six people, four opinions, and nobody will commit in writing. Screenshot the result and drop it in the chat. A random pick that everybody can see beats another twenty messages of "I'm easy, you choose."

Pizza or Burger Wheel
Pizza or burger, spun in one tap so the group can order instead of debating.

About the Pizza or Burger
Pizza or burger is the food argument that nobody is really having. Ask a group and you get four versions of "either is fine," which sounds agreeable and quietly costs you twenty minutes. Nobody wants to be the one who picked, in case the other option turns out to have been better. Two even slices and one spin take that responsibility off every person at the table.
The two choices are not really the same kind of meal. Pizza is one order that everyone tears into, cheap per person, and good cold at midnight. A burger is personal, so nobody has to negotiate toppings, but it arrives as five separate decisions and does not survive a long drive home. That structural difference is usually what a group is stuck on, not the flavor.
Both slices are on the wheel already, and each spin uses your browser's cryptographically secure random generator, so the odds are even and nothing is nudged. The wheel does not know which place near you is better. What it does is make the choice public: everyone watched it land, so there is no one to blame and no reason to relitigate it while the food is on its way.
How to use the pizza or burger wheel
- Put the wheel where everyone can see it. Pizza and Burger are already the only two slices, so there is nothing to type.
- Tap Fullscreen if the phone is going around a big table, since the pointer reads clearly from a seat or two away.
- Get a quick "we go with it" from the room, then spin and let the wheel stop on its own.
- Order whatever the pointer landed on and put the debate down. Watching it land is the part that ends the argument.
- Add a third contender in Wheel Entries only when your real short list has grown, for example wings, tacos, or a place by name.
Ways to use the Pizza or Burger
Kids who want opposite things
One child wants pizza, the other wants burgers, and neither will move. The wheel is a referee that is not a parent, so the loser is the spin rather than you. Promise the other option next week and it usually holds.
Office lunch runs
Somebody has to place one order for eight people before the meeting ends. Spin, announce the result, and collect toppings or burger choices in the same message. It takes the politics out of a decision nobody wanted to own.
Cooking it yourself
The same fork applies at home: dough and a hot oven, or patties and a pan. Spin before you open the fridge so you shop and prep for one meal instead of half-planning both and ordering anyway.
Tips for better spins
- Say what the spin covers before you tap, tonight only or the rest of the week. Groups reopen results when that part was never agreed.
- Let the loudest holdout do the spinning. People argue with a result far less when their own hand started the wheel.
- Turn on "No repeats until all are picked" and a two-slice wheel alternates cleanly, which suits a household that eats out every Friday.
- Use Share to send the wheel to the group chat so a friend who is not in the room can spin instead of just voting.
- Keep it at two slices while the question really is pizza or burger. Adding six restaurants turns a fast call back into a menu.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does the pizza or burger wheel decide?
Each spin draws from the browser's cryptographically secure random generator using rejection sampling, so Pizza and Burger have exactly equal odds every time. Past results are not remembered, so a run of three burgers is just how randomness looks. Nothing is weighted and there is no hidden preference in the code.
Can we use it to settle an argument fairly?
That is the main reason people open it. Because everyone sees the same spin land, the decision stops being one person's fault. Agree beforehand that the result stands, otherwise the wheel becomes another thing to argue about, which defeats the point of spinning at all.
Can I put specific restaurants on it instead?
Yes. The two slices are the default because that is the phrase people arrive searching for, but Wheel Entries lets you swap in the actual places near you, one per line. If your list grows past a handful, a broader food picker wheel suits it better than this pair.
What if the group ignores the result?
Then you learned something useful for free: somebody had a real preference and was hiding it behind "either is fine." Ask them directly and order that. The wheel is a tie-breaker for genuine ties, not a way to overrule a person who actually cares which one wins.
Is it free, and does it work on a phone?
Yes to both. There is no account, no download, and nothing stored on a server. It loads in a phone browser at the table, and Fullscreen makes the pointer readable when you are passing the screen around a group of people.
