How to flip a coin online

Step-by-step instructions for Heads or Tails Now.

Heads or Tails Now is an online coin flip for tie-breakers, first-turn choices, and classroom demos. Press Flip coin for one Heads or Tails outcome. Turn animation off for an immediate reveal, enable speech when the screen is shared, and review recent flips locally. The decorative coin is not legal tender. Browser cryptographic randomness makes the result suitable for casual choices—not a regulated lottery, wager, or audited decision service.

How it works

1. Press Flip coin to generate Heads or Tails.
2. Open Options to choose coin style, speak results, or set an auto-flip timer.
3. Turn Coin animation Off for an instant reveal (also the default when reduced motion is preferred).
4. Use Recent flips in Options to review the last outcomes on this device.

Examples

• Tie-breaker: Flip once to decide which player chooses the next activity.
• First turn: Flip to decide who goes first without arguing.
• Teaching chance: Run several flips and compare counts with an even expectation.

Limitations

• The result is not a substitute for a regulated or independently witnessed random draw.
