## What is Randa?

Randa lets you easily generate a random number. Just set a minimum and maximum number and you will get a random number in that range.

This can be useful for decision-making, picking stuff from a list, board games, dice rolling, coin flips, etc. For example, it's Netflix & chill night and you cannot decide on a movie. Just generate a random number from 1 to 20 and pick the movie at that position in your watchlist. Need to make a yes or no decision (coin flip)? Just set the minimum to 0 and the maximum to 1.

You can shake the device to generate a number. And you can press and hold the number to copy it.

Note: The app generates truly random or consecutively unique numbers (opt-in). However, it does not ensure all numbers in the range will appear before repeating. This feature, known as exhaustive randomization or shuffled sequence selection, is not supported.

## Key features

- Generate random numbers
- Set custom min/max range
- Shake to generate
- Copy number with press and hold
- Decision-making tool
- Board game helper

### 4/5 — Overly good, but can be improved

*2026-05-24*

It’s super easy to use and convenient at decision making. The only con is the range gets reset after closing the app. So if it can be kept, it’ll be perfect!

### 5/5 — Roll an any-sided dice!

*2025-10-30*

Perfect for what I wanted - generate a random number in any specified range. It does exactly what I wanted, and nothing I didn’t want. Free, and works on iPhone and Mac. Thanks and props to the developers for putting it out there.

### 4/5 — na dann.. ran da!

### 3/5 — Repeat

*2024-07-11*

It doesn’t repeat the same numbers one after another but it does repeat the same group of numbers a lot

**Developer response:** The app generates truly random or consecutively unique numbers (opt-in). What you want is not considered a random number, but rather exhaustive randomization or shuffled sequence selection. This feature is not supported by the app.

### 5/5 — 功能完美实现

*2024-04-05*

简洁，直接，无冗杂功能

### 5/5 — Not random

*2024-02-09*

I tried Randa, to generate a cubic die, by setting the minimum at 1 and the max at 6. I noticed that the second number generated was never the same as the first. Maybe that’s because the button is labeled “ CHANGE.” But that’s not random: when throwing a pair of dice, doubles occur with probability 1/6. To be sure, I changed the max to 2 and generated a boring sequence: 1,2,1,2,1,2,…. which is clearly not random, like a coin toss!

The developer has fixed this bug, so I have revised my rating to 5.

**Developer response:** This is fixed in the latest update (1.2.1). I had accidentally enabled the numbers to be consecutively unique (meaning, it would ensure each number is different from the previous). This behavior is now opt-in.
