# Simply Random vs Pick

The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pick at none against Simply Random's 1. Pick also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 3 days vs every 4 months). Simply Random's advantage is ratings volume (7 vs 1). On price, rating and device support there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. Simply Random sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Pick asks for nothing beyond the download.

On the App Store both sit at effectively the same score — 5.0 for Simply Random against 5.0 for Pick. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Simply Random has 7 ratings behind it against 1, so its average is the more settled of the two.

Simply Random ships an update every 4 months, Pick every 3 days. The most recent releases landed on September 17, 2026 and September 8, 2026 respectively.
