One spin picks what you play together next. Partywheel brings 14 group games to Apple TV, iPhone and iPad, with no player names to enter and no ads. The cropped wheel reveals your next game. Its rules stay on screen until you spin again, so you can jump straight into playing together. All 14 classics are included for free. A one-time purchase of Partywheel Premium lets you disable individual games and add, edit or delete your own games with a title, emoji and description. With iCloud, your personal game selection syncs across your devices. On iPhone and iPad, you can also save your own games locally without iCloud. Editing on Apple TV requires an available iCloud connection; games already saved there can also be played offline. One Premium purchase works on iPhone, iPad and Apple TV using the same Apple Account for purchases. If you previously purchased the ad-free option, Premium is included without another purchase. The interface and classic games are available in English, German, French and Spanish. Your own game descriptions stay just as you wrote them. Sound and supported haptics can be switched off separately.
