Frequently Asked Questions
Is the coin flip truly fair?
Yes. Each flip uses JavaScript's Math.random() to produce a genuinely random 50/50 result. There's no bias towards heads or tails: each flip is completely independent.
Why a fox?
Why not? The fox adds a bit of personality to what would otherwise be a very plain coin. Heads shows the fox's face, tails shows the distinctive fluffy tail. It's the same fair flip, just more fun.
How do I reset the score?
Hit the ↺ Reset Score button below the stats to clear both the heads and tails count back to zero.
Does it work offline?
Once the page has loaded, the coin flip works entirely in your browser with no internet connection required. The result is generated locally: nothing is sent to a server.
