## What is Mach Dice?

Roll dice on your iPhone or iPod Touch! This app features animating 3D dice rolling on screen and uses the accelerometer to simulate an actual 3D view. You can use it anywhere, even in places where dice rolling is inconvenient: In a car (not while driving)! On a plane (not while piloting)! In the bathroom! Well, you get the idea.

### 3/5 — Great except percentile dice

*2022-01-15*

This is a great app and I love being able to shake my device to shake and roll the dice. 

My only complaint is that you can’t roll 2d10 as percentile. This is done with one die marked with tens values (10, 20, 30, up to 00) and the other die marked 0-9. Make this possible and I'll add two more stars.

### 5/5 — Awesome dice app

*2021-07-28*

I have had this app for a very, very long time. Ever since I had the first gen iPod touch. It amazing that the maker has supported it so long. I’ve used the app many times when ever I didn’t have my physical dice available and was in need of some.

I wish I could donate more to the maker of the app.

### 5/5 — The best dragon dice app

*2020-06-24*

Even handles non-standard dice, simply the best!

### 5/5 — I love this dice roller so much, I had to tell you!

*2019-01-23*

Five stars
18 intelligence 
Forty-seven cake pops
All the oscars, screen actor’s guild, and people’s choice awards!

Please keep it up, and keep the updates coming. 

I’ve tried a a bunch-o-these things and I keep coming back to Mach dice!

### 5/5 — Hard to find but best by far

*2017-12-31*

I’ve tried dozens of apps over the past couple of days and this is the first app I’ve found that does everything I’m looking for to play a wide variety of dice games. The only things I don’t see are a way to clear the history or a way to reach the developer from inside the app.

### 3/5 — NOISY! (Great dice, but noise!!)

*2017-11-13*

I can't find the very important (especially when around sleeping kid) VOLUME CONTROL! It's not obeying music volume. Or having its own setting for it, that I can find. Please fix so I can 5-Star!

### 5/5 — This is the best dice app ever!!!

*2017-06-03*

So, please update continuesly.

### 1/5 — Custom dice

*2017-02-12*

Purchased custom dice in app will not transfer pictures onto dice tried alsorts

### 5/5 — I'm happy with this

*2015-10-24*

Funnly little app this. A one-trick-wonder. But I hate in app purchases and all the extras in most of the card games etc and with this app I can play Yahtzee with friends but I suspect this does a lot more than that with some dice I'd never use. Lots of dice, so all options covered.

### 5/5 — Fantastic!

*2015-01-26*

This app does exactly what it's supposed to do and does it exceptionally well! Also doesn't hurt that it's gorgeous!
