Why streamers choose WheelNamer

๐ŸŽจ

Clean, visual wheel your chat will love

The spinning wheel is naturally engaging on stream. Viewers watch, guess, and react โ€” it creates genuine interaction without any extra setup.

๐Ÿ”’

Verifiably fair

WheelNamer uses crypto.getRandomValues() โ€” the same standard used in security software. No server can predetermine the result. Your chat can trust it.

โšก

Lightweight โ€” no performance hit

WheelNamer runs in a browser tab. It uses minimal CPU and virtually no GPU. It won't compete with your game capture or affect your frame rate.

๐Ÿ’พ

Save and reload in seconds

Save your wheel as a file before going offline. Next stream, import it and your entries are back instantly โ€” no re-entering names.

How to get WheelNamer on your stream

There is no single "correct" way โ€” pick the method that fits your setup. All four work with OBS, Streamlabs, and any other streaming software.

๐Ÿ–ฅ๏ธ

Second monitor (most popular)

  1. 1Open WheelNamer in your browser on your second monitor.
  2. 2In OBS, add a Display Capture source and select your second monitor.
  3. 3Crop the capture in OBS (hold Alt + drag edges) to show only the WheelNamer window.
  4. 4Build your wheel, then spin โ€” your viewers see exactly what you see.

๐Ÿ’ก This is the simplest setup and works with any browser. You can interact with the wheel naturally while streaming.

๐Ÿ“ฑ

Phone or tablet on a stand

  1. 1Open WheelNamer on your phone or tablet browser.
  2. 2Place your device on a stand within reach at your desk.
  3. 3Point a webcam or capture card at the screen, or use a phone mount over your desk.
  4. 4Spin the wheel on the device โ€” it shows cleanly on camera.

๐Ÿ’ก Great for IRL streams or anyone who prefers a physical feel. The WheelNamer mobile layout is optimised for touch.

๐ŸชŸ

Window capture in OBS

  1. 1Open WheelNamer in a browser window on your main PC.
  2. 2In OBS, add a Window Capture source and select your WheelNamer browser window.
  3. 3Resize and crop in OBS to show just the wheel area.
  4. 4Spin from the same machine โ€” OBS captures the window without needing a separate monitor.

๐Ÿ’ก Works well if you only have one monitor. Use a browser window (not fullscreen) so you can still access OBS controls.

๐Ÿค

Co-host controls the wheel

  1. 1Open WheelNamer on a second device (co-host's PC, tablet, or phone).
  2. 2Share that screen or device feed into your stream via a scene source.
  3. 3Your co-host or mod spins the wheel on your behalf.
  4. 4You see the result and react live โ€” genuine surprise every time.

๐Ÿ’ก Popular for giveaway streams where you want verifiable fairness โ€” someone else controls the spin so you can't influence it.

Streamer FAQ

Do I need to install anything?

No. WheelNamer runs entirely in your browser โ€” no downloads, no plugins, no account. Open it on any device and start spinning.

Will ads appear on my stream?

We work to keep WheelNamer as clean as possible for stream use. For the cleanest look, use window capture or display capture cropped tightly around the wheel area, which keeps any browser interface out of shot.

Is the result genuinely random?

Yes. WheelNamer uses crypto.getRandomValues() โ€” a cryptographically secure random source. No server predetermines the outcome. Your chat can trust the result is fair.

Can I save my wheel so I don't have to rebuild it every stream?

Yes. Use the Save Wheel button to save to your browser, or download it as a file. At the start of your next stream, import the file and your wheel is ready instantly โ€” no re-entering names.

Can I use this on Twitch, YouTube, Kick, and other platforms?

Yes โ€” WheelNamer is platform-agnostic. It works the same regardless of where you stream. Any setup method that gets your screen or device into your stream software will work.

Does it work in Streamlabs, vMix, or other stream software?

Yes. Any software with display capture, window capture, or a camera input can capture WheelNamer. The steps are the same โ€” the source type and menu labels just vary slightly.

Can a viewer or mod trigger the spin?

Not automatically โ€” the spin is triggered by whoever is controlling the device WheelNamer is open on. For mod-controlled spins, have your mod open WheelNamer on their device and share that screen into your stream.

How do I make the spin more dramatic for viewers?

Use the Duration slider in the toolbar to extend the spin time โ€” longer spins build more suspense. You can also use the sound effects (toggle Sound On in the toolbar) so viewers hear the wheel clicking down to a result.
