Making a yes or no decision
When you are stuck between two options, a coin flip settles it in a second without overthinking. This page is preset so the coin reads Yes and No instead of heads and tails: flip it and you get a clear answer, with an animation and a running tally of how the decisions have fallen. You can rename the two sides to any pair of choices, and because the flip uses cryptographic randomness it is genuinely fair — neither answer is favoured.
Frequently Asked Questions
How does a yes or no coin flip work?
Press Flip and the coin lands on Yes or No, each with an equal 50% chance. The sides are already labelled Yes and No, so you get a clear answer for any two-way decision. Each flip reads a fresh random byte from the browser's Web Crypto API, so a run of three No answers does nothing to make the next one Yes.
Can I change Yes and No to other choices?
Yes — the Yes and No labels can be swapped for any two choices. Type your own two options into the labels, such as two names or Pizza and Tacos, and the flip decides between them. Leave them as Yes and No for a straight decision.
When is a yes or no coin flip a good way to decide?
A yes or no flip suits low-stakes choices where either answer is genuinely acceptable — what to eat, who goes first, which task to start. Its real value is often your reaction: if the coin says No and you feel relief or disappointment, you have just found the answer you actually wanted. For anything with real consequences, use the flip to break a tie rather than to make the case.
Can I flip several yes-or-no coins at once?
The count selector flips 2, 5, 10 or 100 coins in one press and reports how many landed on each side instead of animating them one at a time. That is useful for settling several small decisions in a row, or for showing how a 50/50 split behaves over many trials. Leave the count on 1 when you want a single animated answer.
