Every shared home has the same argument: the bathroom somehow always lands on the same person. This preset loads eighteen universal household chores, so the wheel — not habit, not volume — decides what gets done next and by whom.

Step-by-step for the week

  1. Spin once per person per session and assign whatever lands.
  2. Turn on “remove winner” so each chore is done exactly once before anything repeats.
  3. Set a timer per chore (15–25 minutes) so big and small tasks feel equal.
  4. Export or screenshot the result and pin it where everyone sees it.
  5. Reset the wheel next week for a fresh, even rotation.

Why the wheel ends chore wars

Chore charts fail because someone always suspects the split was rigged. A visible random draw fixes the politics: the wheel uses the browser’s Web Crypto API (crypto.getRandomValues) with rejection sampling, so every chore has an identical chance and the result happens on screen in front of everyone. Over a month, the unpleasant tasks distribute themselves evenly.

Customizing the list

  • Delete chores your home does not have (no stairs, no plants, no oven).
  • Add home-specific items like “clean the balcony” or “feed the pets”.
  • Split into daily quick tasks and weekend deep-clean lists.
  • For assigning named people to tasks rather than picking tasks, use the task matcher.

Practical tips

  • Agree the rules before the first spin, not after an unlucky one.
  • Pair a hated chore with a liked one in the same session.
  • Put on music — a timed spin plus a playlist beats nagging.
  • Rotate who presses the button so the draw visibly belongs to everyone.
