Frequently Asked Questions

How do I add items to my list?

Simply type each item on a separate line in the text area. You can also paste a list from elsewhere using the "Paste" button, or use one of our pre-made templates to get started quickly.

Is the selection truly random?

Yes! Our picker uses JavaScript's built-in random number generator to ensure each item has an equal chance of being selected. Every pick is independent and unbiased.

Can I pick multiple items at once?

Yes! You can set the "Number of Picks" to select multiple items at once. Use the "Allow Duplicates" option to control whether the same item can be picked multiple times.

What if I have duplicate items in my list?

If your list contains duplicate items, each instance is treated as a separate entry, giving duplicates a higher chance of being selected. Remove duplicates if you want equal probability for all unique items.
