Paste your list into the Items field (one item per line) and hit Randomize to instantly shuffle the order. You can optionally keep the first line as a header, choose how many items to pick from the shuffled result, and toggle duplicate removal. The randomized list appears in the output, ready to copy.

Yes. Check the 'Keep first line as header' option before randomizing. The first line will stay at the top of the output, and only the remaining lines will be shuffled.
Yes. Enable the 'Pick only N items' checkbox and enter the number you want in the 'Number of items to pick' field. The list is first shuffled, then only the top N items are returned — giving you a fair random selection.
No. The shuffle uses a non-deterministic algorithm (Fisher-Yates with Math.random()), so each click produces a different result. If you need the same order again, copy and save your output after each run.
Not by default. If your list contains duplicate items and you want them removed before shuffling, enable the 'Remove duplicate items before shuffling' checkbox. The tool will keep only the first occurrence of each item.
There is no hard-coded limit. The randomizer works entirely in your browser, so the practical limit depends on your device's memory. It handles thousands of items without any issues on modern hardware.
The tool uses the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm, which guarantees a uniform random permutation — every possible ordering is equally likely. This is the gold-standard method used by serious randomization tools.
Yes. Use the 'Output separator' dropdown to choose between new line (one item per row), comma-separated, semicolon-separated, or pipe-separated output. This makes it easy to paste the result into spreadsheets or other tools.
Anything — names for a raffle or team draft, tasks in a to-do list, playlist songs, classroom seating, survey questions, or any other items you want in a fair random order.
