Decide Now Random Wheel Reviews

Why not give us the original spin button back? Give us a choice. It looked so much better before.

I go back to the original? I would rather delete DecideNowRandomWheel if I can’t change it how it looked before with the nice looking “Go” button”.I mean, why take away from it. Instead, you could have added skins. Let your user choose to have the old skin or new skin. Add a feature for us to import our own button even. I was hoping you would allow us to create a color scheme such as letting me choose black and white checkerboard or something like that, but nope, you go and take away one of the best parts of it. Why don’t developers like to give CHOICE to the users? I notice this a lot. Some people want “A” and some people want “B”. You have already created them both. Why not let us have “A” & “B” and let us choose which one we want? I had this at 5 stars before. Now, I have it as a 1 star. I really should not have updated. How can I go back?

Your application is very simple, easy to use, and enjoyable. During the Covid19 lockdown I use it throughout the day to decide what task to do next. The one thing that bothers me is that I have to disable an item Everytime I spin (instead of a wheel option to do so automatically).
Would you please create an option (per wheel, since some wouldn't need it and some would) to remove results so that I don't have to constantly remember to push the deactivation button each time?

DecideNowRandomWheel does pretty much what you expect and it does a nice job at it. Editing lists is not immediately obvious at first. The color schemes are nice and I like dark mode. This is better than other similar apps I have used.

The only suggestion that I see right away would be some advanced property to adjust the relative weight of each option on a wheel ... that is, given a list of four options (for example) in which one option is more desirable than the others, it would be nice to adjust the preferred option to take up more of the wheel (like 40% and the others reduce to 20% each). Ideally, maybe have a “+” and “++” switch next to an option to increase that option’s relative weight (which translates to relative area on the wheel). You could also approach it with a “-“ and “- -“ implementation.

Just a thought; An improvement to an otherwise great app.

Why did it suddenly start doubling the labels that I load from a list? Seemed to begin doing this out of nowhere and it confused me greatly in the middle of a game I was using DecideNowRandomWheel for. I still cannot figure out why it’s doing it and how to make it stop.
Don’t get me wrong, I love this thing! I just want to be able to load a list of labels into it, and not double up the labels I put into it.

I really like DecideNowRandomWheel! Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because I wish I there was an option to reactivate things I have already deactivated, the only option right now is to reset all deactivated things, not add back one by one if I want to. I have a wheel with about 50 things on it so resetting and reactivating the ~20 that were deactivated is not as easy as just adding one back. Ideally there would be deactivate, reactivate, and reset all.

Exactly what I've been looking for. This is my favorite and most used app ever! I have created so many wheels it's almost ridiculous. No more time wasted trying to decide what's for breakfast or dinner. No more time wasted picking something to watch. Etc Etc. Decisions get even more narrowed down if needed with the A-Z wheel I made. Would give it 5 stars if switching between wheels was less taps. I'm used to it, but having the list of wheels in the settings, then select a wheel, then tapping the out of quick reach back button could be easier. Maybe on the next update!

I've recently come back to DecideNowRandomWheel and love the visual improvements and the new "Deactivate" feature. I'd recommend DecideNowRandomWheel to anyone looking for a fun way to make routine decisions.

For future improvements, I'd like it if there was a way to deactivate wheel segments before spinning. For example, if I'm deciding what to make for dinner but know I don't have the ingredients for lasagna, it does me no good to have to wait until I've landed on "lasagna" before I can deactivate it.

I use DecideNowRandomWheel to help me with my daily life. I’m not a person who likes routines because it can be boring...so I put all of my to-do items on a wheel and spin it to decide what I do next (and I make sure to add a couple wedges for “me time” so I can take a break). It has made me sooooo much more productive and I even turned it into a game. It’s also amazing because you can turn off a wedge to remove it as an option,

Quick a number from 1-12, which song artist to hear, which song, which short story chapter to read, luv it. It’s fun to use and takes away several situations faced with trifle decision. Sick of the hum drum chore list then make a wheel and spin the random order up of chores. Rids monotony and dull pattern plans by random selection. The wheel idea is the retro modern way to gather and list things. Great job!

Great Developer too!!
Thanks so much, it works perfectly again.

Leaving it five stars but newest update causes crash when I try to change anything. I can’t even get the options page to open. iOS 12.5.5 iPhone 6plus. Haven’t tried updating on a newer device or iOS yet as previous version still does what I need. Great app otherwise. Pretty impressive how many choices you can squeeze on one wheel. Thanks

Nice that it’s customizable and easy to use. Does what it says it will do. Color themes are nice, fun to use whether it’s for a serious decision or just for fun. Click the button repeatedly for a massive spin or even manually.

If there is any complaint it’s just that I can’t export or back up my lists from DecideNowRandomWheel . I still give it 5 stars!

I love DecideNowRandomWheel because if you have trouble deciding where your going out to eat or if someone wants to go to the park and the other person doesn’t then make a wheel and spin it. When you get DecideNowRandomWheel it comes with wheels already made so if you want them you can keep them or if you don’t want them you can delete them.

Amazing app. I use it as my main to do list during my work day and during my “hobby time.” I appreciate the new update, but it is trickier to edit an existing wheel (something I do multiple times a day as new tasks come up). Could you add an edit button to the wheel page? Perhaps in the 3 dots at the top right or the gear on the button left? I’ll send a tip :) Great job with DecideNowRandomWheel! —Update— The edit button was added. Thank you!!

I use DecideNowRandomWheel in my classes to randomly select a student — sometimes for answering questions, or the order to speak. I use it to create seating charts and randomize answers on tests. The newest help to me is the ability to deactivate a selection to use all the options instead of constant randomness. I do like to say that in randomness, you may be chosen repeatedly 🧐

I use Decide Now! to tell my viewers to have a (positive adjective) day when I'm ending videos. I've used DecideNowRandomWheel for the same purpose at the end of my class periods, and my students are eager to see what word will be chosen by the spinning wheel. This is a good app that can help students decide what to study first or last, especially for midterm and final exams.

Love DecideNowRandomWheel for the classroom. Always set students up to collaborate in smaller groups and then spin to see who answers for the group. Also add other spots on the wheel to keep it interesting. Free late pass, cookies for all, or high five three people. Excellent solution for increased engagement.

For a while now I’ve been looking for an app to help me randomly make decisions.. whether it’s flipping a coin, rolling a D20, deciding which movie to see, or where to eat tonight, Decide Now! has me covered.

Creating, editing, and using a wheel is very easy—and satisfying. Not to mention, the entire app is really aesthetically pleasing. Thank you for this awesome random tool!

Though the better version is locked behind a paywall, it is still cheap and affordable compared i some other apps. DecideNowRandomWheel is different from other apps in that... it actually works! The spin is satisfying and the amount of categories and decisions you can add is phenomenal, I recommend DecideNowRandomWheel to anyone who wants a wheel spinner.

The ability to take the pressure from deciding which place to have dinner or which direction for a random walk makes this a front page (screen) app because I use it everyday. I enjoy setting up the wheels and then anticipating where the wheel will land. Boring decisions are now a game.

DecideNowRandomWheel is very well made. The visuals look great, the physics of the wheel are on point, the feature to disable whatever was picked on each spin. It’s also nice to be able to create as many different wheels as you want.
