Build balanced groups for several rounds and search for fewer repeat partners across the session. HOW IT WORKS 1. Open Tools, choose Teams and select a saved list. 2. Tap Plan several rounds and choose the group and round counts. 3. Generate the plan, inspect repeat-pair counts, and save or share the full rotation. Wheel, name draws, dice, lists and the existing team splitter remain available. Round plans do not change draw history. WHAT TO KNOW Supports 2–100 people, 2–20 groups and up to eight rounds. Everyone appears once per round and group sizes differ by at most one. A randomized search reduces repeats but does not guarantee an optimal arrangement. Weights and previous draw status are ignored; matching names keep separate numbered identities. iPhone and iPad.
