Dice Roll lets you roll dice right on the Home Screen using the new Interactive Widgets. Customize the foreground and background color; the option to display a border, an animation, or text instead of the dice symbols; and also change the text font and font weight. The widgets are also available and are interactive on the Lock Screen, and also in StandBy mode. The app contains 3 unique widgets: - Random 6-sided dice - Random X-sided dice (choose a dice up to 1000) - Dice Guess (a fun mini game) If you have any questions or feedback, I'm all ears. Dice Roll was created by an individual in his free time, and I’d love to know what you think. I’m available through Twitter @elohohel & Mastodon @elohohel@mastodon.social.
