### 3/5 — Wish for…

*2025-07-05, version 2.8*

Could use an offline feature. Also wish it was easier to alphabetize or reorganize the list.

### 3/5 — why is everything so tiny?

*2023-04-17*

All the results are very tiny. You can shuffle a random deck of cards, but good luck seeing the actual cards. Same goes for all the tax results and so forth. There should at the very minimum be a zoom option in the preferences here.

### 3/5 — Doesn’t work on the iPad

*2022-09-15, version 2.5*

I use this app all the time on my iPhone, but when I open it on the iPad and move the wheel to the integer generator, the instant I click to change the value of the maximum value, the app crashes and closes.

Every. Single. Time.

### 4/5 — Needs history for random list results

*2022-05-23*

Please add this feature. Great app otherwise. *ORIGINAL REVIEW* Purchased this app not knowing how it would function since there is no trial, found out that there is no way to keep track of generated random lists like the coin toss. Also, there is no “shake” to randomize feature. Was trying to use this app to generate a set of 24 draws on an ESP app using the random list (Green/Yellow/Red/Blue) using the first (1.) result as the draw color, however, since there is no history, its very tedious and time consuming.

### 4/5 — Very simple and useful

*2021-11-27, version 2.5*

Please add the ability to create negative numbers on the integer generator. You are excluding quite a few integers from your integer generator!

### 3/5 — Slow

*2021-06-27, version 2.5*

I would LOVEE IT, if it was just faster,it’s so slow.. But love the App!

### 4/5 — Cool App

*2020-08-05, version 2.4*

I use this app to decide what to do when I’m bored. However, it’d be nice to have sorting options for lists (by name, etc).

### 3/5 — Not generating fast enough

*2020-06-16*

Love the app never had a problem like this before but the generator isn’t generating consistently or fast enough it’s taking almost 1 to five minutes or not generating at all now if you could fix this as soon as possible that would be great

### 3/5 — Flip a coin to determine it’s worth it

*2020-03-14*

I really love the app in that I can use it for dice rolls or determine if I want fish tacos or  steak quesadillas but I just discovered the app only works when you have service. 

I would offer five star but the online-only coin flipper reduces to three, especially since I paid for the extra coins.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2019-12-24, version 2.4*

It’s a great app but it started to crash after iOS 13.3 please fix

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — no offline... what's the point?

*2026-05-08, version 2.12*

I downloaded this to be able to access the features of random.org offline. Turns out the app doesnt work offline, it just fetches data directly from random.org... so why wouldn't I just go to random.org if I have service... pretty pointless for my use case.

### 1/5 — Scam

*2024-10-31, version 2.5*

Literally all you get is the coin flipper and then they make you buy every single other mechanic.

You can use their website to use those randomizers for free.

Scam.

### 1/5 — Not very random

*2023-06-16, version 2.5*

I used the coin flipper daily for a long time and noticed that it seems to favor heads. I once had a head streak of 10 in a row which the probability is .0009765625

### 1/5 — Trial would be useful

*2020-07-25, version 2.4*

Forces you to buy the features with minimal description.

Within 1 minute of use, it was clear that this app doesn’t do what I need. Wish there had been a way to establish that before I paid.

### 1/5 — Useless List Function

*2020-07-05, version 2.4*

After paying $1 in-app purchase for the list function you’ll find that you can’t paste a long list of items into it. You can only manually enter one item at a time. There are dozens of free apps that do the same thing. Save yourself the money and just go to random.org/lists instead.

### 1/5 — Basic

*2020-04-12, version 2.4*

Really upset at how little they put into this app. I use their website and pay monthly to run list (multi-round list). I wish this app was able to login with account and use all services.  Will definitely raise stars when updated.

### 1/5 — Discrimination against Apple users

*2020-03-09, version 2.4*

I’ve had an iPhone for about a year before that I had an android where I had this app and could use all the features for free. Now that I have switched to iPhone I can no longer use the app which makes no sense because even the website is free. Quite disappointed.

### 1/5 — Must purchase

*2019-10-18, version 2.4*

In order to unlock The most used options you have to purchase them

### 1/5 — Freerereeere

*2019-09-15, version 2.4*

Make everything free

### 1/5 — Bought this for the random password generator

*2019-07-28, version 2.4*

Only to find it wasn’t one of the features that would be unlocked. Waste of $3.99. Deleted.

## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated)

### 5/5 — Why I like Random.org

*2026-02-02, version 2.9*

Besides the obvious (giving a lot of types of randomness,) they teach us a lot about randomness. You can also create your own random choices (e.g., days of the week, people on a list, colors, etc..) I haven’t found better, but I’m also not looking.

### 5/5 — Just all around solid.

*2025-11-09*

This is by far the best randomizer on the app store. It’s free, with no ads, and most importantly, doesn’t collect data. I would like to see the option for no repeats, an option to favorite a randomizer so you don’t have to spin the wheel to get to the integer generator every time ya’ open the app, and maybe the ability to add bias, but it’s still amazing. 7 stars if I could, so 5 stars.

### 5/5 — Huge fan

*2025-04-09*

Random org provides true RNG not seeded from time stamps. Love the app/website, they always maintain free service. I have used random org for over a decade. I would pay for this

### 5/5 — The Best True Random Generator

*2025-02-27, version 2.6*

Randon.Org is the best for true randomness! Easy to use, reliable and packed with great tolls for Lotteries, Games, and more. Highly recommended!

### 5/5 — Truly Random

*2024-04-10*

I love this app and the whole premise behind it—it generates truly random results (you can read about it on their website).

### 5/5 — True randomness

*2024-03-06, version 2.5*

Exactly my point

### 5/5 — More menu option for card shuffler

*2022-11-15, version 2.5*

The Card shuffler should be the same website where you can customize which card can show up and how many cards can be drawn.

### 5/5 — Extremely helpful app for serious music students

*2020-06-26*

Fantastic app for randomising scales and arpeggios when preparing for music exams!

### 5/5 — Music Practice Routine

*2020-01-26*

In my daily, music practice, routine I play one or two sets chosen from 23 sets of melodic sequences. (There are seven sequences per set, and each sequence I play around the circle of fifths.) I could practice them in order but it’s better to decide which set to play next by randomly picking it. So I use the list randomizer on this app. Randomly picking the set makes sure I won’t, over the months, neglect the latter and more difficult sets of sequences on my list; that neglect builds up over the occasions where I neglect my daily routine for many days, forget where I left off, then just start at the beginning again. Randomly picking the order each day offers me the best assurance that my practice of these exercises will be evenly distributed in the long run. It also gives me a little boost of excitement as compared with taking things in a predetermined order.

If you’re a music student who has recently learned all your major and minor scales, and if you don’t have time each day to go through all of them, it’s probably better to randomly pick a smaller set of scales to practice. The “list randomizer” in this app is perfect for that: just enter the names of each scale on a list (the list will be saved), hit the big “randomize” button, then practice as many of the scales you want in the order shown. The next day you’ll (most probably) have a different order, and in the long run your practice of these exercises will be evenly distributed.

### 5/5 — use it very often...

*2020-01-10*

...but I really only need the Integer Generator for what I do,
so it would be nice to have just this instead of having to always “twirl the wheel” to get to it each time I open the app.
Also, I agree with the person who said that it is a bit unreliable in the latest OS of 13.
Otherwise, it’s a joy to have and it has replaced something I had been using previously for over 10 years.
