Coin Flip FAQ

Is the flip really fair?

Yes. Each side has exactly a 50% chance, using the browser's random number generator. Unlike a physical coin there is no bias from weight or the starting face.

Can I rename heads and tails?

Yes. Each label can be any text up to 12 characters, so the coin can decide between any two options.

Why flip a coin to decide?

Because your reaction to the result tells you what you actually wanted. Relief means you were leaning that way; disappointment means the opposite. Use the coin as a prompt, not a verdict.

When would I flip more than one coin?

Three or five coins let you decide by majority, tilting the odds slightly. Ten coins are handy for showing how results approach 50/50 as the number of flips grows.

Is the history saved?
