Use the Spinner add-on with your team for a quick and fun way to choose someone. Can't decide who presents first? Need to pick a winner for a team activity? Create a spinner and let it decide for you.
Add a spinner to your freehand
You'll first insert the spinner into your freehand.
- Open the freehand you wish to add a spinner to.
- On the toolbar, click ••• More tools.
- Scroll or search in the menu to find and select Spinner.
- Click on the canvas where you want to insert the spinner.
The spinner automatically adds all active and inactive users up to a maximum of 20 users.
Add new users to the spinner
If you'd like to add people to the spinner who've never accessed your freehand, you can. Adding a new user to the spinner shares the freehand with them.
- Click the spinner.
- In the contextual menu, click
Edit. The Edit Spinner side panel opens.
- Click Invite. The share modal opens.
- Enter the name or email address of the person you wish to add.
Edit a spinner
To edit a spinner:
- Click the spinner.
- In the contextual menu, click
Edit. The Edit Spinner side panel opens.
From the Edit Spinner menu, you can add or remove users to the spinner.
Spin the spinner
Anyone who visits the freehand can spin the spinner by clicking the center button. Whoever wins the spin is automatically removed.
Once everyone has won a spin, the center button changes to Reset spinner.
Send collaborators directly to the spinner
When someone joins a freehand, you can ensure they're directed right to your spinner or other add-on by using its deep link. A deep link is a link that goes directly to a specific element.
- Click the spinner.
- In the contextual menu, click ••• More > Copy link.
- Share the link.
When someone follows a deep link, their canvas will zoom in and focus on the spinner when they visit the freehand.
