# Pick at random with a spinning wheel

> Let chance decide on your MockFlow board with the Spinning Wheel component: add options, spin, and see the result and how the spins add up.

The **Spinning Wheel** component picks one option at random, with a spin everyone on the board can watch. Use it to choose who presents first in a stand-up, which question a class answers next, the topic for a workshop round or the winner of a prize draw.

## Set up the wheel

1. Click **Add anything** (the plus button) in the toolbar at the bottom of the board and choose **Spinning Wheel**.
2. Click **Edit Title** in its toolbar and type the question, such as "Who presents first today?".
3. In **Wheel Options**, type the options, click **Add Option** for more and drag them to change the order. Click an option's color to change it, or **Generate Colors** for a matching set.

To let AI fill the wheel, click the AI button on the left of the toolbar, choose **Generate new** and describe it, for example "Ten warm-up questions for a team meeting".

## Spin and see the results

Click **Interact with Wheel** (the hand button), or switch the board to Play mode, and click **SPIN**. The wheel shows the **Result** for everyone on the board.

Each person can spin once, and people need to be signed in to spin. **View Results** shows each person's result and how the spins are spread across the options, and **Toggle Results View** shows or hides it on the wheel.

**End Wheel** stops further spins, and **Reset Spins** clears the results for a new round.

> **Plan** Polls, upvotes, spinning wheels and timers are collaborative components, included in the Plus and Max plans. Generating with AI uses AI credits. See [MockFlow pricing](https://mockflow.com/pricing/).
