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.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Random Things Generator at fortnightly against Randa's every 3 months. Random Things Generator also leads on review sentiment (92% vs 78%) and ratings volume (60 vs 9). Randa's advantage is rating (5.0 vs 4.7) and device support (4 vs 2). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Neither carries in-app purchases, so what you see is what you pay.
Randa holds the better App Store score, 5.0 against 4.7. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Random Things Generator has 60 ratings behind it against 9, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 92% of Random Things Generator's written reviews are positive against 78% of Randa's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Random Things Generator ships an update fortnightly, Randa every 3 months. The most recent releases landed on September 27, 2026 and September 25, 2026 respectively.
