Comments on Random Name Picker for Android

★★★★★ Holden Matteson · Sep 16, 2026

Straight to the point, great app for what it does!

★★★★★ danielle harper · Apr 13, 2026

Simple and it works. I need a list for multiple things and this does it.

★★★★★ Brendan Backhaus (PvtBreno84) · Aug 26, 2026

It's a great app for randomly choosing names, and I recommend this app. The only issue is that the "speak the result" feature is too fast and not adjustable, but other than that, this app is useful.

★★★★★ Meri G · Aug 7, 2026

Very happy with this app. I use it for a list of not so important households tasks, to randomly pick which one is next. Completely free, runs well without pro version, but it is also quite affordable at 99 cents per lifetime. Thanks 👍

★★☆☆☆ Valentine Raphael Okoro · May 1, 2025

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

★☆☆☆☆ Tibor Simic · May 4, 2025

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

★☆☆☆☆ Jen P · Feb 13, 2026

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!!!
