Is this coin toss actually random?

Yes. Each flip uses your browser's cryptographically secure random number generator (or a high-quality fallback), giving heads and tails an equal 50/50 chance every time - the same as a physical coin.

Can both captains see the result at the same time?

Yes - share your screen or hold the phone up so both sides see the flip and result together, the same way you would with a physical coin.

Does the toss work the same way for every sport?

The coin flip itself is identical everywhere. What the winner gets to choose varies by sport - in cricket, it's bat or bowl first; in many other sports, it's ends, direction, or who starts with the ball.

Can I use this instead of a physical coin?

Yes - it's a fair substitute when no coin is on hand, for practice matches, remote coin tosses, or settling any other 50/50 decision on match day.
