Features & Capabilities

Pickster is a simple app that lets you draw names randomly from a list—like a hat, but digital. It supports multiple lists, easy entry by tapping, and quick paste-import of names. You can set how many unique names to draw, auto-alphabetize or manually order entries, and use swipe actions to copy, delete, or duplicate a list. It includes two draw modes, iPad support, and remains ad-free.

Version 2.5 adds a screenshot-friendly winner page so you can share results without exposing the rest of the list. Lists can be extended with a one-time in-app purchase for multi-list support, and you can paste text with commas, tabs, or newlines, copy lists to the clipboard, or use the Quick Add Widget for fast entry.

User Reviews

Users largely praise Pickster for being easy to use and good for giveaways with multiple lists, but repeatedly report serious issues: purchases/feature access not working, data losing and blank saves, paste functionality failing, no multi-device sync, and frustrating interface changes that gate features.
Pros
  • Easy to use and user-friendly.
  • Supports multiple lists, allowing you to manage more than one list.
  • Very useful for giveaways, scoreboards, and random draws.
  • You can set names and the number of entries for each.
  • Basic, straightforward functionality that meets needs.
Cons
  • In-app purchases and restoration often don't work; paid features disappear.
  • Names and lists sometimes fail to save or appear blank after adding.
  • Copy/paste functionality sometimes doesn't work for lists.
  • No cross-device sync; one device only.
  • Interface changes gate features or leave some options grayed out.

There is no way to use the app across more then one device as far as I am aware.

Nice that you can paste in the names but how about being able to also paste in the number of entries. Does one really have to manually click the entry column say 25 times? If so, it’s not worth the $2.99
