**Wheel of Fortune** is an activity that lets participants spin a prize wheel and land on one of the slices you defined. You control each slice’s label, color, and how likely it is to be selected, allowing you to add a variable reward to your study instead of a fixed one. Avicenna records which slice each participant landed on so you can review it on the Activity Responses page. > [!note] > Wheel of Fortune is a licensed feature. If you do not see it listed when adding a new activity, [contact support](mailto:support@avicennaresearch.com) to have it enabled for your license. ## Use Cases - Reward participants for reaching a study milestone, such as completing a baseline survey or finishing a burst of daily diaries. - Introduce an element of chance to sustain engagement, where every spin has a possible win rather than a guaranteed one. - Run a prize draw at a fixed point in your study by triggering the wheel once per participant. ## Configure a Wheel of Fortune To add and configure a Wheel of Fortune to your study: 1. Go to the [**Activities**](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/t/activities/1237#p-2864-accessing-activities-1) page on your researcher dashboard. 2. Click **Add Activity** and select **Wheel of Fortune**. 3. Enter a name and description for the activity. 4. Configure the slices on the **Content** tab, as described below. 5. Set up **[Triggering Logics](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/t/triggering-logics/1238/3)** and **[Notification Templates](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/t/notifications/1277)**. 6. Preview and publish the activity. ## Configure the Slices The **Content** tab holds the slice list. Each row is one slice on the wheel, and each slice has a title, a chance, a reward flag, and a color. A wheel must have at least 2 and at most 30 slices. Use the **plus (+)** button to add a slice and the delete icon to remove one. ![Configure Slices](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/uploads/default/original/2X/5/5b787d2fc0f7281733c9a315fed91b9a87deb9ba.png) ### Title The label shown on the slice and recorded in your data. A title can be left empty, but this is not recommended: an untitled slice is harder to interpret on the Responses page and cannot be used as a filter option. ### Chance How likely the slice is to be selected, expressed as a percentage between 0.1 and 100. The chances of all slices must add up to exactly 100% before the activity can be published. A new slice you add starts at 1%, so remember to rebalance the other slices after adding one. ### Reward A checkbox marking the slice as a win. This flag controls what the participant sees when the wheel stops. ### Color The fill color of the slice on the wheel, chosen from the color picker. > [!note] > If your study includes [localizations](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/t/localization/1275), slice titles can be translated. > Chance, Reward, and Color apply to every language and can only be edited while the Base language is selected. They are disabled in translation mode. ## Wheel of Fortune in the Participant App When participants open the activity, they see the wheel divided into slices, each labeled with its title and filled with its color. Tapping **Try my luck** submits the session, and the wheel spins and stops on the selected slice. ![iOS Keyboard](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/uploads/default/original/2X/c/ca08f0571141a68df51d8638e9552faf08278e69.jpeg) Wheel of fortune in the participant app 1 ![Android Keyboard](https://forum.avicennaresearch.com/uploads/default/original/2X/9/996611cb5f234fc5c63cfd6b38539d2cef143be1.jpeg) Wheel of fortune in the participant app 2 ## View and Export Responses Open the Activity Responses page to review participants’ spins.
