The Random Number Generator

I changed the range each time - the first range used 1-78 the next range was 1-82. I use this to play a racing game that doesn't have a random car+track mode. 78 tracks and 82 cars, so I let the app decide which car I should drive and where. After a few days I noticed a distinct bias towards the 30s - could have been just "random" but it was enough for me to uninstall this app and look elsewhere.

simple to use. I run weekly raffles in an online guild, and have used this for a couple years. recently i’ve noticed that the numbers have noticeable patterns — like if I need to reroll from a group of six (same winner as last week), it will often give me the same number several times before I can get a different one. that worries me about the randomness…

I’ve been using this app for boxing drills and it’s pretty useful when you have nobody to help you call out movements or punches. It would be really useful if you could set the amount of time between numbers to be random as well. For example having one number be called out and there be three seconds until the next number is called, and then five seconds until the next number is called after that one. Would be a really cool feature.

We use this for our golf groups to generate random numbers to determine which holes we use when counting scores. I made a suggestion to add a feature to never repeat a number consecutively and Nick got right to work on it and added that feature!

Tried this app and it picked a number. Works. I’m looking to give something away possibly via a online raffle and this app will just make it easy. Thank you for inventing this app. Kudos!!

Hey, this app is really useful! I'm a Spanish major and one of my weaknesses is numbers, so I like to let it autoplay while I translate as I, say, do the dishes. I would happily pay money for two developments: that I could let it autoplay with the screen off/the app not open, and if this were available in other languages as well. Thanks for reading, and thanks for the app!

I’m rating four stars provisionally, and will return to edit this post with my final review in a few days. FIRST IMPRESSIONS: I downloaded this app, then immediately ponied up the 99 cents (reasonable) for ad-free access. (You also have the option to send the dev $2.99 at any time; also reasonable, as this option does not appear to be tied to app functionality.) App itself displays as iPad-native (including horizontal view and multi-app view). Excellent. Privacy practices (as disclosed, assuming they are accurate) are within my acceptable range. The option to adjust the color background is a nice perk. REQUEST: I would like to be able to adjust the font size in the data entry fields. FINAL REVIEW: (coming soon)

This has all the features I was looking for, including speech and adjustable speed. Only one thing needs to be added: a “STOP” button. UPDATE: The developer saw my review and added a simple “play/pause” button. Perfect! Thank you Nicholas. Nice job.

My favorite part is when the number is really slow and you make it say 69

Occasionally just won’t open. Not very useful.
