Tips & tricks
- The shuffle uses Fisher-Yates with Math.random(), not a cryptographically secure source — fine for playlists and casual draws, but not for anything security-sensitive.
- There's no download button — use Copy Result and paste the shuffled list wherever you need it.
- Duplicate items are preserved as-is; run the list through a duplicate remover first if you need unique values only.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is the shuffle algorithm randomized?
The tool uses the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm powered by Math.random(). This is a well-established, unbiased shuffling algorithm, though the underlying randomness is JavaScript's standard pseudorandom generator, not a cryptographically secure one.
Is there a limit on how many items I can shuffle?
There's no hard-coded limit in the tool, but very large lists (tens of thousands of lines) haven't been specifically tested for performance.
Can I shuffle a list for a random prize draw?
Yes. Enter all participants, one name per line, shuffle, and take the first N names as winners.
Can I shuffle numbers or items with duplicates?
Yes. Duplicates are preserved in the shuffled output — the tool shuffles all items as given, not unique values. To first de-duplicate, use the Duplicate Line Remover tool before shuffling.
Can I download the shuffled list as a file?
No — there's no download button. Click Copy Result to copy the shuffled list to your clipboard and paste it wherever you need it.
Is my data safe when using the List Shuffler?
Completely safe. The List Shuffler processes everything locally in your browser. No input data, results, or usage information is ever transmitted to or stored on any server.
Are the results from the List Shuffler truly random?
Yes. The List Shuffler uses your browser's standard random number generator (JavaScript's Math.random()), which is suitable for games, decisions, and everyday randomness. It is not a cryptographically secure generator — for security-sensitive use cases like generating passwords or cryptographic keys, use a tool built specifically for that purpose.
Can I customise what the List Shuffler generates?
Yes. Where customisation options are available, you can add your own items, set numeric ranges, or adjust parameters before generating. Default settings are designed for the most common use case so you can get an instant result without any configuration.
