About Team Shake: Pick Random Groups
Team Shake provides a technological and environmentally friendly way to choose teams for board games, sporting events, tournaments, school projects or anytime groups are required. The newest release brings many new features including full Phone and Tablet screen support, balancing teams based on skill or gender, importing users from a file, and sharing teams via Facebook, Twitter, email and more.
Team Shake is the premier Android app for creating teams. Instead of a hat and scraps of paper, the user enters his friends' names in his phone or tablet and gives it a shake. The screen will then display a random set of color-coded teams. These teams can immediately be used for game play or shared via facebook or email. The quick and easy selection of random (or balanced) teams eliminates fighting over who will be on which team. Innovative use of the shake gesture gives users the satisfying feeling of shaking a virtual hat without the trouble of carrying around an actual hat. Conventional buttons can also be used for those who would rather not shake their expensive hardware about.
The app is designed with ease of use and simplicity in mind. Names can easily be entered with the onscreen keyboard, or imported from a file. The email / Facebook / Twitter sharing function document the members of each individual team as well as preserving the team number and color assigned by the app. For repeated use of Team Shake, lists of friends can be easily saved and loaded later. The current list is also automatically saved so that if you exit the app, or even reboot the device, changes will not be lost. For teachers and others with large lists of people, Team Shake supports the ability to import teams from text files, CSV files, or Excel spreadsheets.

This is a useful app and when an Android update caused a bug in their app, they were very responsive and fixed the problem quickly. I was very impressed.

After updating the app to work with Marshmallow on my Note5, this app works great for splitting my PE class up into teams and by ability level. A must have app for any PE teacher. I use this daily.

This app has turned a chore into a delight. No one complains about teams when we let the hat decide! Problems with Marshmallow have been fixed.

Creating lists is fine, but it crashes every time I try to make teams. I'm running Marshmallow on a Nexus 5, but had the same problem on Lollipop too.

As a PE teacher this is a great concept apparently the iPhone version is better. But when I want to open a new list/class I go to do it but the previous class still stays up then I have to close the app to get the new list to show up. If that could be fixed I'd rate it a 5 for what it's potential is

I am having same problem as prior poster. Loading team works well but, when I shake, it displays the teams for only a split second before crashing. My fellow coach used the Apple version last year and I loved it. Please get it working right for Android! (version 5.1.1 on OnePlus One)

Great app for picking teams. Makes my job easier when needing to pick teams in a hurry or for new units. Like how you can rate each student as well so it balances teams.

A bit of a learning curve at first. You have to exit & reenter for it to refresh and not so easy to cut and paste class lists.
