# RANDOM.ORG vs Card Picker

The clearest difference is ratings volume: RANDOM.ORG at 1.3K against Card Picker's 7. RANDOM.ORG also leads on rating (4.6 vs 4.3) and update cadence (every 3 months vs every 6 months). Card Picker's advantage is iOS requirement (10.0 vs 15.0). On price, review sentiment, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. RANDOM.ORG sells 6 one-off in-app purchases and Card Picker sells 1 one-off in-app purchase. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

RANDOM.ORG holds the better App Store score, 4.6 against 4.3. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: RANDOM.ORG has 1.3K ratings behind it against 7, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews split almost evenly too, at 59% and 60% positive.

RANDOM.ORG ships an update every 3 months, Card Picker every 6 months. The most recent releases landed on October 14, 2026 and September 24, 2026 respectively.
