App History & Updates
What's Changed
- To better support raffles where people can have multiple tickets (a very popular use of Random Name Picker), multiple instances of names are now compressed to make these lists shorter and easier to navigate. So if your list has "Bill" 5 times, it will show up as "Bill (5)" instead of 5 individual rows. To go along with this update, I have also added the ability to delete and rename multiple names at once, so you don't need to spend forever deleting/renaming the same name over and over. Enjoy.

Very helpful for overcoming indecisiveness. Just make a list and have it choose stuff for you. You can configure it to finish the list first or not. Also useful is automatic duplications, for weighting purposes. I use this app heavily to keep from getting overwhelmed by big lists.

The app is great, however wen choosing a name we should be able to see the names kind of rotating around for a bit before picking the name. If you wanted to record a video of the raffle would be more interesting for viewers. rather then generate a name as soon as you chose. But overall it's great.

I wish there was a way of not getting rid of the names once drawn? Or keeping track of the number of times they have been drawn. Asides from that, works well.

This is a great and easy-to-use app! We used it to sort items from my mom's estate. I guess my only complaint would be that it seemed biased toward one name in particular, but I understand how the underlying system works, and therefore understand that it's not biased. I really like how it will call out a name! Thanks for the great app!
