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. ### 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! ### 3/5 — Customisable dice tricky to figure out *2014-02-08* Got this app specifically to create a custom die. Creating it was fine but could not figure out how to make the app use my die. There's no 'done' button or the like. Had to watch the help video to find out how to use it. For the record, you need to type the type of die you want to use in the box at the top of the screen, then choose the custom option. I suggest a more intuitive route, or onscreen instructions, in the next version. Otherwise it seems pretty good. ### 4/5 — Any dice you want *2013-10-13, version 3.10* This is a great app once you understand how to use it. It was not clear to me how to actually use custom dice once you create them until I watched a tutorial video on it from the developers website. This would be more helpful if there was instructions within the app. But once I finally got it figured out, this became the best custom dice app I have seen so far. Love it! ### 5/5 — Honestly... *2013-05-31, version 3.10* I have about 15 different dice apps (I'm a bit of a dice addict) and I have to say this app is the absolute best!!! ### 5/5 — Best Dice App. Period. *2013-05-11, version 3.10* Can't say enough good things about this app. You can get really creative with dice colors by importing images. This works especially well with images of fractals. You can make some really pretty dice this way. It really is the next best thing to carrying around your dice pouch Some further expansion on these options, such as multiple colors at once would be great. ### 5/5 — Very good *2013-03-27, version 3.10* Easily the best dice rolling app I have tried. ### 5/5 — Pure awesomeness! *2013-02-27, version 3.10* Cool! ### 4/5 — Needs iphone5 support *2012-10-25, version 3.10* Pretty good liking the die roll sound effect. Please update with iPhone 5 full screen support so I can recommend to others, thanks! ### 5/5 — Best dice roller *2012-10-05, version 3.10* I've tried a bunch of dice roller apps and this is clearly the best. Get it! ### 3/5 — Missing 2 features *2012-09-15, version 3.10* Two requests... First, landscape support. Two, give me either presets or else don't include the held dice in the total. It's a little bit annoying to have to manually enter a few combinations over and over. I would love a running history where I could select from recent rolls: 1d20, 1d20+2, 3d6, 1d10+4. Well written app, would easily be 4 stars if free. Nice work developer, will check out your other D&D/RPG apps as well. ### 5/5 — Perfect Dice Rolling App *2012-08-28, version 3.10* This is fantastic. I created custom dice so I can play Descent (2nd Edition) - it also allows you to customize just about everything else and roll any number of dice. If you're looking for a good dice app, this is what you're looking for. ### 5/5 — Great dice simulator *2012-07-22, version 3.10* This app is a nearly perfect replacement for real dice, and provides a wide variety of options such as simultaneously rolling 1d20 and 2d6. The ability to create skins is also great, but also keeps the app from 5 stars because (1) you can only skin a maximum of 6 sides and (2) a bug occasionally draws a blank side. Even so, and especially for an indie product and at this price, an overall great app. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Custom dice *2017-02-12* Purchased custom dice in app will not transfer pictures onto dice tried alsorts ### 1/5 — DONT BUY THE LIE *2014-06-19, version 3.10* Bought this app for exactly 1 reason. The advertised custom dice creator. What they didn't tell you. Each custom die is $$$ each. In other words, pay $$$ each time to be able to pay more $$$ to get what you were supposed to get the first time. ### 1/5 — Can't use custom dice *2013-01-24, version 3.10* I bought this and the custom HeroQuest dice, but could use the new dice in the app. A waste of money as far as I'm concerned. ### 1/5 — Too many missing features *2012-10-02, version 3.10* Formula gets wiped if you want to edit/add/remove dice from table New custom dice get formula id's that bounce the others which messes up the formula using the other existing dice Locked dice dont STAY locked when leaving a table. Cant customize dice with basic iOS keyboard numbers/letters/symbols. You have to import pictures. Cumbersome. The formula entry screen doesnt always work. Creating/managing multiple sets of dice in this, that need to be used as a "group" or "team" of dice on a single table is nearly impossible in this app. You might have 2 sets of 5 dice set up. 2 formulas on two tables to use the 2 sets. As soon as you create another custom dice (the first in another 3rd set) the dice on your two previous tables and formulas are screwed up ( see 2nd issue described above ). HORRIBLE. This app needs a ton of refinement. ### 1/5 — Wait, what? *2012-09-12, version 3.10* I just downloaded this, and like it so far except.... To change the dice is an In App Purchase????? Seriously? That blows! ### 1/5 — Keep Trying... *2009-10-30, version 0* I gave this app another try after about 6 months of using other dice apps. Unfortunately, this app seems fatally flawed. Slow load times, awkward dice "feel", and still prone to frequent crashes & severe memory leaks (had to reboot my iphone to clear the memory error -- same problem as I had before). Sorry Mach Dice. Other dice apps do it better. ### 2/5 — Could be better... ☝️ *2014-08-27, version 3.10* I've bought the In-App to customize and it's not clear how to use. There isn't a "help" ,"FAQ", but after try I found. The custom background doesn't work in my iPhone 5S. In fact, the developer should work hard to revamp this app, so far 2 stars is too much. ### 2/5 — The fine print *2014-07-04, version 3.10* It costs a dollar to 'buy' each of your own custom dice. ### 2/5 — To static *2009-11-18, version 0* This dice roller is to perfect. If I roll 36 d6 say for warhammer 40k and the to hit is 4+ I can gaurente that I am going to get at least 15ish hits. This is all the time. It is an on going joke that when I pull out my iPhone people know I am going to hit. ### 2/5 — Needs work *2009-08-16, version 0* I tried this for about half a session of D&D. Honestly I found the number / letter input slow and cumbersome. It doesn't help that the letters and numbers are on different keyboards. Myself and others around me quickly became impatient waiting for me to enter rolls and the app was abandoned in favor of "Dice Roller". It is faster, matches the D&D manuals, and has a much better feature set than Mach Dice. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 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. ### 5/5 — This is the best dice app ever!!! *2017-06-03* So, please update continuesly. ### 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! ### 5/5 — La migliore app per dadi *2014-10-16, version 4.0.0* Utilissima per chiudersi a d&d Sarebbe bello poter fare il costumize del background. Ma comunque ottima ### 5/5 — One of the few apps I've been using for years. *2014-08-03, version 3.10* I got this app on my old iPhone 3G and thought it was so cool to be able to roll D20's on my phone. I still use it when I'm gaming and am too lazy to look for my dice. I also use it anytime I want to make a random decision such as what combo meal to order in the drive through. ### 5/5 — Amazing!!! *2013-08-08, version 3.10* Fantastic app! Has everything you could want in a custom dice app. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
