### 5/5 — Shaking dice has never been this fun!!

*2020-08-03, version 2.0.16*

*2020-05-08, version 2.0.13*

App flashes on and off my iPhone.  It works on the iPad.   Unfortunate.. because you need the dice on a separate device while on Google Classroom on the iPad.

### 3/5 — Shake ‘em dice

*2020-04-24, version 2.0.10*

There is no need to put a price on some online dice. When I duplicate a die, it will soon delete all die when I don’t press a thing.

### 5/5 — Sounds and moves like real ones!

*2020-04-07, version 2.0.7*

Simple dice roller that sounds and moves like real ones!

### 5/5 — Shake ‘em Dice

*2020-04-05, version 2.0.7*

Like this app, but quite often one or both cubes will land on a rounded corner, and slight tilting is required for a positive result.  Sometimes the dice will roll right over, changing completely and when a 5 or 6 could be seen, it then becomes a 1 or 2.
Suggest you make the corners sharper!

2 months later... great improvements!  So handy when we’re away from home.  5 star app. 😁

### 5/5 — Dice size

*2020-04-05, version 2.0.7*

It would be a 5 star app if you could change the size of the dice. They are pretty small, albeit accurate in size.
Update: in response from the developer, problem solved! Use two fingers to zoom in and out! Thanks!

### 3/5 — It does the job

*2020-04-03, version 2.0.6*

The dice can be rolled by moving or tilting the iPad. It would be nice if this feature could be made more sensitive for people with very limited motor skill or ability.

### 5/5 — Unreal

### 5/5 — FUN

*2023-06-19, version 2.0.16*

### 5/5 — Shake dice make ‘em role

*2022-02-23, version 2.0.16*

It does the dice trick role when shake great game weird dice.

### 5/5 — Phenomenal

*2022-01-17, version 2.0.16*

Hands down the best game I’ve ever played in my life, graphics are brilliant, zero lag. What more can I say?

### 5/5 — Overwhelmingly convenient

*2021-11-06, version 2.0.16*

I like to make basic decisions through chance. I don't always keep dice on me and I even lamented not bringing my D20 while on vacation. Certainly easier and more convenient to have such a thing on your phone, especially when you're at a restaurant or a bar. 

Only problem is all these other dice apps seem to use number generation only, cleverly disguised or otherwise. While there's probably no difference between rolling physical or digital dice, the efficacy of the latter and by extension RNG is certainly very questionable. Neither here nor there of course.

Point is, this app answers this problem for me intelligently. Instead of pressing a button to, in theory, roll dice, it uses physics powered by the iPhone's gyroscope and accelerometer to put the power in your hands to shake the dice as long as you want and roll however you please, with assurance that you're getting a true roll in the palm of your hand.

Individual dice cost a dollar each, but you can buy all the dice offered in the app for two dollars. That's a coin, numbered variety D6, customizable pip-variety D6, a D4, a D5, A D8, a D10, a percentile D10, a D12, and a D20 for a fraction of the cost for a set of Chess*x. Not to mention that you get the added value of being able to take the dice with you wherever you go, so long as your phone's charged.

The possibilities are endless, not just making decisions. Impromptu games of Yahtzee at a party, make up for missing dice in Monopoly, generate an invoice number in your small business, teach children math. WHATEVER 😂👌

### 5/5 — Yo

*2021-02-20, version 2.0.16*

Wow

### 5/5 — Soo satisfying

*2021-02-02, version 2.0.16*

It is sooooooooo satisfying to watch the dice role around your camera

### 5/5 — Excellent !

*2021-01-31, version 2.0.16*

J'ai dépensé à peine plus de 2 €.
Pour ce prix j'ai un nombre illimité de dés dans la poche. L'appli jette les dés, calcule le total et ajuste si vous décidez de tricher en faisant rouler un dé après le calcul... Les couleurs sont personnalisables.
Bref  il ne manque que la possibilité de mémoriser les scores et enregistrer un set de dés favoris...

### 5/5 — Best dice app on the store

*2021-01-20, version 2.0.16*

Ultra realistic dice physics and excellent variety of dice for every occasion

### 5/5 — Great Ideas Here, but..

*2020-10-14, version 2.0.16*

Great Dice App.
Love the tangibility of the dice. Laying my iPad down on the tabletop, it’s so close to actually having real dice right there in front of us. Great for educational activities.

Only thing I would add is the ability to select dice to set aside, so as to not re-roll them. Many activities and games requires this function.

Other than that, well done & thank you!
