Shuffle List Generator

Simply paste or type your list items into the text area, one item per line. Choose any options you need — like removing duplicates or trimming whitespace — then click the button to shuffle. Your randomly ordered list will appear in the table below immediately.

The tool can handle hundreds or even thousands of items, depending on your browser's performance. For everyday use cases like shuffling names, tasks, or playlist tracks, you won't encounter any practical limits.

The tool uses the Fisher-Yates shuffle algorithm powered by JavaScript's Math.random(), which produces statistically unbiased, pseudo-random results. For most practical applications — team draws, task assignments, playlist shuffles — this level of randomness is more than sufficient.

When enabled, the tool scans your list and keeps only the first occurrence of each item, discarding any repeats before shuffling. You can also enable 'Case Sensitive Duplicates' if you want 'Apple' and 'apple' treated as distinct entries.

Yes — check the 'Sort Alphabetically Instead' option and the tool will arrange your items in A–Z order rather than randomizing them. This is handy when you want to clean up and organize a list quickly.

Completely. All processing happens locally in your browser — your list items are never sent to any server. Your data stays on your device at all times.

Common uses include randomly assigning chores or tasks, determining speaking or presentation order, shuffling song or playlist queues, picking random teams from a group of names, randomizing study flashcard order, and running fair prize or raffle draws.

'Randomizer' is the American English spelling and 'randomiser' is the British English variant. They refer to exactly the same concept — a tool that arranges items in a random order. This tool works the same way regardless of how you spell it!
