Chore Wheel

The Chore Wheel is a free random chore picker that assigns household tasks fairly, so nobody can say they always get the worst job.

Add the chores that need doing, then let each person spin for their task. The wheel works for daily jobs like dishes and trash, weekly cleaning, or a one-off weekend clean-up.

To share out every chore once, turn on Remove the winner automatically in Settings. Each chore leaves the wheel after it is picked, so the next person spins for what is left.

Ways to Use the Chore Wheel

  • Families

    Let everyone spin for their chores so the list feels like a game rather than a rule.

  • Roommates

    Split shared cleaning fairly without keeping score of who did what last week.

  • Classrooms

    Assign classroom jobs such as line leader or board cleaner at the start of each week.

  • Offices

    Rotate kitchen duty, coffee runs and other shared tasks across a team.

Chore Wheel vs. a Chore Chart

A chore chart sets a fixed rotation, which works until someone swaps or skips a turn. The Chore Wheel picks fresh each time and everyone sees the result, so there is less to track and less to argue about. Many families use both: the chart for routine jobs and the wheel for the ones nobody wants.

How to Use the Chore Wheel

  1. Spin

    Click the wheel or the Spin button at its center, or press Ctrl + Enter.

  2. Watch It Land

    The wheel ticks past each slice and slows down. Whatever stops under the pointer lights up as the result.

  3. Keep It or Remove It

    Keep the result, or press Remove so it cannot come up again.

  4. Go Again

    Spin as often as you like. The Results tab lists every result.

Frequently Asked Questions

Quick answers about how the wheel works, what it saves and how fair it is. Want proof? Try the randomness audit.

How do I use a chore wheel with my family?

List the chores one per line, then have each family member spin in turn. Turn on Remove the winner automatically so each chore is only given out once.

Can I make some chores more likely than others?

Yes. Add a chore twice to double its chance, or remove a chore from the list for the week.

Can I change the entries on this wheel?

Yes. Edit the Entries box next to the wheel, one entry per line, and the wheel updates as you type. Your version is saved in this browser, and Reset brings back the template's entries.

Does the wheel keep my results?

Yes. The Results tab lists every spin, newest first, until you clear it or leave the page. Your entries and settings stay saved in this browser.

Does this wheel work on my phone?

Yes. It works in any modern browser on phones, tablets and computers, with nothing to install.

What if I don't like the result?

Spin again. If a result disappoints you, that can be a useful sign of what you really wanted.
