Yes / No — Out Loud!
Yes No Button
The free random yes or no decision maker. One click. Truly 50/50.
History
What Is the Yes No Button?
The Yes No Button is a free online random decision-making tool. It works by generating a truly random Yes or No answer with exact 50/50 probability - the same odds as flipping a fair coin, but instantly accessible on any device with a web browser.
You can type an optional question into the input field for context, or simply hold a question in your mind and press the button. The answer appears as a fullscreen popup: a green background for Yes, a red background for No. The tool also reads the answer aloud using your device's voice synthesis, so you get both visual and audio confirmation.
There is no sign-up required, no cost, and no data collection. The entire tool runs in your browser - nothing is sent to any server. It works on phones, tablets, laptops, and desktop computers. Whether you need a quick decision, a game randomizer, or just a moment of clarity, the Yes No Button is always ready.

How to Use the Yes No Button
Here's exactly what you'll see, step by step:
1. Press a button
Tap the green Y for Yes or red N for No - or hit Pick Random and let the button choose for you.
2. See and hear your answer
A fullscreen reveal shows your result in green (Yes) or red (No) and reads it out loud. Tap anywhere or hit Try Again for a new answer.
3. Need a third option?
Switch the toggle to Yes / No / Maybe to add a purple M button for an equal-odds Maybe.
4. Track your answers
Your last few results show up in the history strip with a running Yes/No tally, saved right in your browser.
How Does the Yes No Button Work?
The Yes No Button uses JavaScript's Math.random() function - a cryptographically seeded pseudorandom number generator built into every modern web browser. When you click the button, the tool generates a random decimal number between 0 and 1.
If the number is below 0.5, the answer is No. If it is 0.5 or above, the answer is Yes. This gives an exact 50/50 probability, mathematically equivalent to flipping a fair coin. In Maybe mode (three-way), the range is split into three equal thirds: 0 to 0.333 for No, 0.333 to 0.666 for Yes, and 0.666 to 1 for Maybe.
Each result is fully independent - previous outcomes have no influence on the next one. The tool does not store your questions or record your answers on any server. It is 100% client-side, running entirely in your browser with zero data sent over the network.

Other Names for the Yes No Button
The Yes No Button goes by many names depending on how people use it. Some call it a yes or no generator: because it generates a random answer on demand.

It's also referred to as a yes no oracle (for those who prefer a mystical framing), a yes no picker (when you need something to pick a direction for you), or a yes no wheel (as an alternative to spinning a physical wheel).
