Possibilities are only limited by your imagination: ► Who does the dishes? ► Who chooses the TV program? ► Who drives (doesn't drink)? ► What do we eat tonight? ► Who sings a song? ► Where will we go tonight? ► Who offers a drink? ► Who disguises himself as rabbit? ► What game do we play tonight? ► Who puts the trash out? Not to waste anything, this application could not be easier to use: ► You create a question, as an exemple: "Who does the dishes?" ► Next, you add the nominees (possibly from your address book) ► And that's it: you just have to start the draw! Simple, isn't it! Several features make this application more than a basic lottery application: ► Fair mode so that all participants are drawn once (so that no one will escape wash dishes for example) ► Share a question so your friends receive a notification for each draw. ► A wheel with realistic behavior: you'll feel like you are turning a real wheel! Spin it quickly to start a draw. ► Shake to start a draw. ► Add people from your address book to save time: prevents boring and repetitive keystrokes. ► Choose the duration to manage suspense! ► Copy question: those who does the dishes are also those who lay the table? No problem, with one slide gesture you can make a new drawing with the same people! ► Share last result ► Make a full ordered draw instantly with all question's items (for instance, to determine in one time an order of passage). ► Toggle an item on or off to avoid drawing someone who is unavailable at this very moment. ► Dark mode. ► Device accessibility options are taken into account. ► History of already drawn items. ► iCloud synchronization to always have your questions up to date on all your devices.

Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Whosnext at 90% against Random's 56%. Whosnext also leads on rating (4.8 vs 4.5). Random's advantage is ratings volume (2.8K vs 273). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Whosnext sells 2 one-off in-app purchases and Random sells 14 in-app purchases, starting at $4.99 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Whosnext holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.5. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Random has 2.8K ratings behind it against 273, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews point the same way: 90% of Whosnext's written reviews are positive against 56% of Random's.
Whosnext ships an update fortnightly, Random every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on September 26, 2026 and September 23, 2026 respectively.
