How do I use the list picker?

Paste your list (one item per line), choose how many to pick, and click Pick. Optionally enable 'Unique' to avoid picking the same item twice.

What's the maximum list size?

You can paste up to 10,000 items. Perfect for large contests, drawings, or random selection from big datasets.

Is the selection truly random?

Yes! We use cryptographically secure random generation (CSPRNG) ensuring each item has equal probability of being selected.

Can I pick multiple winners?

Yes! Set the count to pick multiple items at once. Enable 'Unique' to ensure no item is picked more than once.

What can I use this for?

Perfect for contest winner selection, random student calling, team selection, giveaway drawings, or any situation requiring fair random selection.

Are my lists stored or private?

Completely private! All processing happens in your browser. We never see, store, or transmit any list data you enter.

Can I use special characters in my list?

Yes! Your list can contain any text including names, email addresses, numbers, or special characters. Each line becomes a separate item.
