Pretty Random - RNG Hack 5.1 + Redeem Codes

This app does exactly what it says, nothing more or less. Simplicity is a virtue! Thank you!

That said, it’s not perfect. Please consider these suggested improvements:

First, it would make the app much easier to use if it remembered the last number range used from one run to another. I don’t want to keep the app running in the background all the time to accomplish this. Just have the app remember the previous range settings instead of reverting to 0-99 each time.

Second, user interface improvements:

The typing cursor always seems to be the same bluish color. Too often the background comes up that same color so the cursor is invisible. Can you make the cursor be the opposite of the background color? Or make it solid black or some other color that can’t be a background color.

Also, it seems that since some recent update you now have to tap right on the range numbers to open the keyboard for entering a new number. Previously it seemed like tapping in the nearby vicinity was recognized. Trying to tap right on the “99” invariably lands the cursor between the nines which is useless. For those of us with fat fingers it’s unnecessarily difficult to enter the range numbers.

The issue is that when I adjust the "Min" and "Max" parameters for random generation, they only apply to the touch input and not the "shake to randomize" input. I usually prefer to shake to randomize because the app might be using the accelerometer to generate random noise. (If not, I would highly recommend having the accelerometer be the source of random generation - then, D&D would be so much easier since I wouldn't need so many dice.) Overall, I suggest that you (whether singular or plural) should continue to develop this app further - maybe a seed input option would be good, too.

P.S. I hope to become an app developer someday; I'll be happy to learn how to do so.

As a teacher, sometimes it’s helpful to randomize choices you make. Keeps your students on their toes. There are several far more complicated randomizers for teachers designed specifically for choosing from a list of names and so on, but sometimes you just need something simple.

This app is perfect for simple. That it’s pretty is a bonus. The “shake to randomize” feature is one of the best things about it.

If there’s a downside, it’s that the ad placement in the free version blocks some content on my iPhone 8 screen. Not enough to prevent use, but still. I did spring for the budget-breaking ad-free version — a whole 99 cents — but that hidden content still runs off the bottom of my screen. A very minor blemish to a very fine app.

Does exactly what is intended in a clean, easy to use interface. I use it exclusively for board games and love it. There are a couple of things I’d love to see in future releases:

1. Have the app remember the last number range so I don’t have to leave the app open in order for it to persist.

2. Allow for multiple instances or tabs. In any given game I may have 2-3 random number variations. It would be great if I could create individual instances of each and just tab back and forth rather than having to input the different number ranges every time I use them.

I, like many others on this app, started watching Jon & Josh's blind trading series and I see them use the app all the time, so I thought to get it for myself. Most other "random number generators" are confusing to use and take a lot of time to input numbers and get it to do what you want it to. This is super easy to use, and doesn't lag at all.

Would be great for Random Sample Selection for experiment control/treatment groups if it had a non-repeat option. Works ok-ish as is, but is still a bit of work to cross reference which numbers have already been used. Cross referencing for repeats is not the end of the world for smaller numbers, but a lot of effort when your working with thousands of test subjects. Still, great in theory, but would really love to set subject number parameters, push a button, and get non-repeating numbers just like that. Could be a dream come true!!

I watched Jonsandman use this app easily in videos so I had decided to use it myself and it works amazing. Every time I need some random number it gives me a good use and the fact that alls you have to do is shake the phone for it to work makes the app so much easier. This app makes playing randomized games easy.

I had this app for over 3 years and it was a staple on my phone. They completely ruined the app,don’t know if it’s a bug or the last update but everytime your roll for a number it is so slow and no matter what speed you put in it will never change. It used to be perfect and they somehow messed up the most simple basic app. Real shame but as of today this app is deleted.

I’m giving it a 4.5/5 for the fact that it doesn’t deal with edge test cases. It can give a value greater than the max if you make the minimum bigger, and by specifying the minimum as 1.5 and max as 2 or some other high number then you can get something like 2.5.

I had no problems with the basic functioning of this app. It does what it’s supposed to do.

However, in addition to that, it’s also collecting data about each user. There is no reason why a random number generator would possibly need to collect location data, usage data or diagnostic data specifically tied to each user.

There are plenty of other random number generator apps that don’t collect data about you.
