### 4/5 — I like it

*2026-05-18, version 6.2*

I like this app and find myself using it almost daily to decide things since I’m more or less bipolar and have a really hard time making up my mind. What doesn’t make sense to me recently is that I set it to generate between 1-3 and used to get a big variety. However for the last 11 days I only get 2 when I set it this way. Is this a weird bug in the system? Bc it doesn’t seem like real probability anymore.

### 3/5 — What happened with numbers in hundredths

*2026-01-01, version 6.2*

When you choose a number from 1 to 14,000, you are never given the numbers from 1 to 100.

### 4/5 — Show history broke the app

*2024-08-09, version 6.1*

As title says, turning on show history in the settings instantly crashed the app and it would never open again. Force closing it didn’t help, it would show up for a second and then go black and all you could do was leave the app.

### 2/5 — meh

*2024-07-11, version 6.1*

was great but the layout changed and got worse

### 4/5 — Simple and Elegant

*2023-07-09, version 5.1*

Does exactly what is intended in a clean, easy to use interface. I use it exclusively for board games and love it. There are a couple of things I’d love to see in future releases:

1. Have the app remember the last number range so I don’t have to leave the app open in order for it to persist. 

2. Allow for multiple instances or tabs. In any given game I may have 2-3 random number variations. It would be great if I could create individual instances of each and just tab back and forth rather than having to input the different number ranges every time I use them.

### 3/5 — Bleh

*2023-05-24, version 5.1*

This app would be great if we can input our own unique individual numbers and have the app draw randomly from just those. That’s what I was looking for.

### 3/5 — Ruined

*2023-04-25, version 5.0*

I had this app for over 3 years and it was a staple on my phone. They completely ruined the app,don’t know if it’s a bug or the last update but everytime your roll for a number it is so slow and no matter what speed you put in it will never change. It used to be perfect and they somehow messed up the most simple basic app. Real shame but as of today this app is deleted.

### 4/5 — App icon

*2023-03-26, version 5.0*

Tried several number generators and picked yours. (Not at random!) Nice design. 

If you offered an in-app purchase to pick app icons of different colors I would pay. I am sick of blue app icons. Go green!

### 4/5 — Add Split View for iPad

*2022-09-01, version 4.6*

It's all good. It's a beautiful app. Could have called you the best, but it lacks the "Split View" feature on the iPad. Your app is huge on the whole screen! And would like to minimise it to the right side of the screen so you can see the competition screen and Pretty Random. Please, add it!

Всё хорошо. Красивое приложение. Мог бы назвать вас лучшими, но для этого не хватает функции «Split View» на iPad. У вас приложение огромное на весь экран! А хотелось бы сворачивать его в правую часть экрана, чтобы было видно экран конкурса и Pretty Random. Пожалуйста, добавьте это!

### 4/5 — Reset and Share

*2022-02-05, version 4.2*

Hey there! First of all great app!
The only feature suggestion I would like to see added is a reset button to clear the current number and also the ability to share the last roll as a video or gif.
This would be great for users to share on social media for raffles or lucky draws as evidence of a random number generator. Thanks!

### 3/5 — Does the job but could be better

*2021-10-05, version 4.2*

I don't ask much from a random number generator. The roll animation is unnecessary and annoying.

### 5/5 — One of my most used apps

*2021-05-08, version 4.1*

I use it for my to-do lists. Just a fun way to schedule tasks into my day from my huge list. I use it on a daily basis and i love it.

### 4/5 — Great until new update

*2021-04-16, version 4.0*

The new update with the square surrounding the numbers makes it really difficult to enter in the digits. If it was just for a new look, it makes me want to find a new app as I have to reset each time my curser gets lost in square

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Bad

*2024-11-30, version 6.2*

Not helpful for gambling

### 1/5 — Beautiful and Buggy

*2024-10-25, version 6.2*

🤑I paid for 5 fonts,🎨20 colour gradients, and ❌no ads; the no ads made it so much more beautiful😇, the fonts are a let down 🤬(only 5? + they fit WORSE on the screen!!!), and the colours are nice but nothing special😐

🤬RNG software needs to select the same person in a row less, especially noticeable with fewer people

😡Long names go off the screen during the animation

🤬Long names are covered by iPhone notch/island

😡Have to reload the app after adding/deleting a name

🤨Confetti bugs and plays horizontal animation on vertical screen

🤨Setting to change time interval between rolls does not work (animation takes too long anyway)

😇Glad it’s not a subscription pricing model

### 1/5 — Кривое и лагучее(

*2024-08-31, version 6.1*

При добавлении списка имен, определенного момента уже не видишь поля по набору текста.
После того, как все же внес список и встряхиваешь телефон, чтобы увидеть победителя, приложение закрывается. То есть свою функцию приложение не выполняет вообще.

### 1/5 — Why change it?!?!

*2024-07-03, version 6*

The app was great! You really f¥€$d it! Finding a new number generator. Y’all are dumb as f¥€k

### 1/5 — Terrible since the new update

*2024-07-03, version 6*

It used to be usable but now the UI has been turned into the most disgusting thing I’ve ever seen that is unusable. Immediately uninstalled the app. Not sure what the developer was smoking

### 1/5 — App works fine, but tracks you

*2022-06-03, version 4.5*

I had no problems with the basic functioning of this app. It does what it’s supposed to do. 

However, in addition to that, it’s also collecting data about each user. There is no reason why a random number generator would possibly need to collect location data, usage data or diagnostic data specifically tied to each user.

There are plenty of other random number generator apps that don’t collect data about you.

### 1/5 — Not Very Random

*2021-10-30, version 4.2*

My first ten rolls 66 64 66 4 11 48 9 61 61 65

I don’t feel like it’s a very random - random number generator. There’s somewhat of a pattern to the output.

### 1/5 — Between „useful“ and „scum“

*2021-04-05, version 4.0*

Basically I like the app, and even bought the (inexpensive) paid version. HOWEVER: Every time I start the app, it asks me for my iTunes password! This is creepy!!!!  Why does it want my password for producing random numbers? Furthermore, there is no way to contact the developer via the app. Even worse, the deceloper website listed here in the Appstore (foxbytes.io) does not exist. Who is this developer and why is he hiding? If I had known this before I would not downloaded the app, let alone bought it. If you want to take the possible safety risk, I recommend it, becaus the functionality is implemented in a good way. If you want to be on the safe side and din‘t take any risk, stay away from it.

### 1/5 — Never buy

*2021-03-13, version 3.8*

I bought this app but nothing change.

### 1/5 — Better before

*2021-02-15, version 3.8*

Nice and useful basic app.
The latest update has problems in showing Min and Max labels. I would pay a dollar or two for removing bothering ads.

Update: 
I paid for removing ads.
The visualization of the screen labels Min and Max are not fixed yet........

Yet another update: 
The visualization of the screen labels Min and Max are not fixed yet, I still see half word missing....

Great technical support! 🤣🤣🤣

*2024-10-14, version 6.2*

работает без лагов

### 5/5 — Thanks for keeping old UI option

*2024-07-02, version 6*

Re-reviewing after finding old UI option, thanks. Wish it had a some number preset options is my only comment. I use this app often, definitely recommend.

### 5/5 — Good but glitch

*2023-01-06, version 5.0*

It glitches when I put in 0.00000000 as the min and 9999999999 as the max and when I do that it takes me out of the map I was gonna see if my brother guess it but I didn’t work please fix this but great game ʘ‿ʘ

### 5/5 — Very good

*2022-11-03, version 4.7*

This application make me win lottery very often

### 5/5 — Its great!

*2022-10-24, version 4.6*

Its a great app! I use it almost everyday since I struggle with decisions! But I would like to be able to use negative numbers on my phone. I’m only able to use it on my ipad

### 5/5 — LOVE

*2022-04-25, version 4.5*

I love using this generator to mix up my daily To-Do lists!

### 5/5 — Using this app for the past 6 yearsv

*2021-09-16, version 4.2*

I”ve been using this app every day for the past 6 years to generate random numbers for my boxing game.

### 5/5 — I use this app for….

*2021-08-04, version 4.2*

Deciding who will do the task when no one wants to! Everyone picks a number & I roll the dice. If it lands on your number, you’re the unlucky guy for the crappy task. If no one picked the number, whoever was farthest away from the number rolled, gets the job. 😝

### 5/5 — Archie

*2021-07-28, version 4.2*

This app is brilliant because it is so easy to use and has a really cool design! It’s so simple and does its job perfectly. I would highly recommend it.

### 5/5 — Pretty Random - Does all it needs to

*2021-05-17, version 4.1*

I use this app for things like Raffles etc. It does all it needs to do seamlessly. What more do you need from  a number generator?
