Easy, Fast, and Accurate We designed Pick‑A‑Ticket for you to use while standing in line at the checkout. No waiting for ads, no login required, and no complicated choices to figure out. What Pick-A-Ticket Does We source the official and latest information available from the state lotteries. Then, we analyze that data. We use some of the latest tech to compare each of the available games to each other. Our algorithms do thousands of calculations and check various criteria to rank the games. Depending on the state lottery's data updates, we may produce a ranked list several times a day. Current Rankings All scratch-off games are in a ranked order with the best game shown first. Simply swipe right for the next best game or use the "Unavailable" button if it isn't at your current location. You can also use the slider at the bottom of the page to quickly filter out games that cost more than you want to spend. For example, if you have $10 to spend and you don’t know if you should buy 1 $10 game or 5 $2 games? Stop guessing. Our algorithms have compared the games and found the better ones. Lottery Locations Want to find the nearest places to play the lottery? We've got you covered; simply open the map to find all the locations nearest to you. This feature is only in states where lottery retailer info is available. Purchase History Track how well you play the lottery. In just a couple of quick taps, you can keep up with all your wins. Accuracy We've been at this long before releasing this app to you. We are always refining our data models and algorithms to get you the best results. We confirm all our results each time we produce a ranked list for the app. Be rest assured that we have done all the challenging work for you! Dedicated to Getting It Right We built Pick‑A‑Ticket to make finding the best lottery games quick, easy, and fun. Those who choose to use our app are our customers, not advertisers. We commit to delivering real value and tangible results. Availability For the latest status of each state, see our website's availability map: https://pickaticket.app/availability.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: G.I.S. Strong at none against Pick's 1. G.I.S. Strong also leads on ads (none vs shown) and update cadence (every 2 weeks vs every 2 months). Pick's advantage is device support (3 vs 1) and iOS requirement (12.0 vs 18.6). On price there is nothing between them.
