Quick answer: The Chore Wheel splits chores fairly: list the chores, spin, and do what it lands on, so nobody can say “why is it always me?” It works for kids, roommates and whole families. Free, no sign-up.
Nobody wants to scrub the toilet, so let the wheel decide. The Chore Wheel picks a chore at random, which means no more “why is it always me?” Spiññer put on a polka-dot headscarf and grabbed a feather duster for this one, and has already cleaned the same mirror four times.

A chore wheel for kids
Kids argue less with a wheel than with a parent. Let each child spin once a day or once a week, and keep the list to chores they can really do: making the bed, folding laundry, tidying their room. Add a fun slice like “Free pass!” or “Pick the dinner” so spinning feels like a game, not a punishment.
A chore wheel for roommates and couples
Splitting chores fairly is hard when everyone remembers it differently. Spin on Sunday for the whole week, screenshot the result, and done. Want everyone to see it? Tap 🔗 Share this wheel and send the link to your house group chat.
Tips for a fair chore spinner
- Balance the list: pair a big chore (like vacuuming) with a small one (like the trash).
- Spin weekly: a new spin each week keeps the yucky jobs moving around.
- Make one wheel per room if your list is long: kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms.
