Some decisions do not deserve a pros-and-cons list — they deserve one second and a coin. This preset loads a Yes/No coin so the flip settles it: heads means yes, tails means no, and the moment the coin lands you will feel which answer you were hoping for.
Step-by-step for the flip
- Ask your question out loud so it is really binary.
- Flip once and accept the landing — that is the whole method.
- If you feel disappointed, you just learned your real preference; act on that instead.
A fair fifty-fifty
Coin apps that animate first and decide later invite suspicion. This flip draws from the browser’s Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues), so heads and tails are exactly equiprobable and the animation only reveals a pre-drawn result. No streak correction, no house edge.
Customizing the coin
- Rename the faces to anything binary: “Eat out / Cook”, “Go / Stay”, “Buy / Skip”.
- Switch to best-of-3 or best-of-5 for playful rematches.
- Upload custom face images for team decisions.
- For more than two options, spin the wheel of names.
Practical tips
- One flip per question — re-flipping until you like it is just deciding slowly.
- Use best-of series only for games, never for real dilemmas.
- Share the result link to prove the flip to the other party.
- Pair it with a random number draw for tie-breaks.
