The perennial group-chat questions — whose turn, what to eat, what to watch, who pays — all end the same way. Paste a spinner in the WhatsApp group. One spin. Done. Every spin is logged so async group members see the result when they open the chat later.
Used for dinner decisions, chore rotations, team captains, movie nights, and the daily 'whose turn is it' debate.
Pre-loaded spinner templates. One tap to create, paste link in WhatsApp.
Dishes, trash, dog walk, standup notes. Spin settles it.
Dinner decided in one spin. Lunch too.
Everyone pitches a movie. Wheel picks one. No more scrolling.
Random bill-payer. Log keeps it fair over time.
Designated driver by fair spin, history saved.
Chore rotation for roommates. Enable 'remove after spin' for full draws.
Push/pull/legs/HIIT/yoga. Pre-load rotation, spin daily.
Your list of 'we should try that'. Wheel picks one.
Pre-loaded prompts. Spin, commit, history-protected.
Fair draft, no favoritism accusations. Works for sports and games.
Start with a template or blank. Add up to 24 options — names, foods, chores, anything. 30 seconds, no signup.
Copy the wapin URL, paste it in any WhatsApp group. Members tap it, see the wheel, spin it.
The wheel spins with physics-based easing, lands on one option. Everyone who taps the link later sees a log of who spun and what came up.
Add a checklist, countdown, poll, or split-money block below the spinner. One link, everything for that event or group.

WhatsApp group chats are async. Half your group opens the link at 2pm, the other half at 9pm. Without a visible log, people would spin again — or dispute whose result counted. The log fixes that.
End the daily group-chat debate. Create a spinner, paste in WhatsApp, spin, move on with your life.
