This app is exactly what I expected it to be. I am a teacher and use it to randomly call on students. I also use it at home for meal planning. I make a menu for the month and kids take turns "choosing" dinner from the app.

It does exactly what it says! I'm really bad at making decisions, so I put a bunch of options I like in there and pick randomly until I find something that I want to do, or if I can't decide what to make for dinner, just make a list of common dinners you have, and then it will pick one or multiple for you. It's really nice.

I had a new device, and I have to pay for premium all over again? Make that make sense.

I hate to drop my rating after 5+ years of use, but the app is DELETING my selections. I am a home school teacher and use this to give my child vocab words randomly. I went from 400 words in the list to 34 OVERnight!!!

Took me 30s to uninstall it. Extremely basic and poorly done, AND it has the gall to ask for money.
