Random Balls vs Pocket Random
Price, ratings, monetisation and update history for both apps, side by side — with what reviewers say about each.
Random Balls
Generate sequences of random numbers using a physics-based simulation. Shake your device to let virtual balls collide and determine your random results. Offers multiple ball machines for diverse random data generation.
- Physics-based ball simulation
- Accelerometer-driven collisions
- Multiple unique ball machines
- Generate up to 20 balls per machine
- Group up to 10 machines
- High-quality randomness

With this app, you can create sequences of random numbers by yourself. Great to use when you need to generate random numbers. Basically, each ball is bouncing around, collide with other balls and walls along the way, and finally some of the balls will reach 'target points' and they will serve as your result balls. There're a bunch of different physics-based ball machines in this app, they use accelerometer datas from your device to simulate real world movements and collisions. Each ball machine is well designed with the thought of adding real world random data into the system. With all of these, they gives you ball combinations, that are high quality in terms of randomness. Shake and rotate your phone, let those balls collide and mix, put the phone up-right and you will have sequence of random balls. Each ball machines are slightly different to operate. # Each ball machine can generate up to 20 random balls in up to 100 balls. # You can group as many as 10 ball machines together # The final results are only for your references.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pocket Random at none against Random Balls's 2. Random Balls's advantage is iOS requirement (11.0 vs 15.1). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
