User Reviews

Overall, users praise the app for its strong random name picker and grouping capabilities, especially for large classes, plus features like color-coded groups, auto-save, and tournament mode. However, frequent concerns include paid upgrades limiting features, difficulty deleting students or clearing classes, and reliability issues with CSV imports and random selections. Name pronunciation inaccuracies and accessibility considerations also appear. Some users note good developer responsiveness. The app is valued for classroom management, but reliability and monetization frustrations are common.

Pros

Reliable random name picker and grouping tools that simplify classroom activities.
Supports large classes and multiple classes effectively.
Color-coded groupings and an auto-save feature improve workflow.
Tournament mode and birthday reminders add practical classroom management value.
Responsive developer support, including help with CSV import issues.

Cons

Premium features are locked behind a paywall, requiring upgrades for more than basic use.
Difficult to delete students or clear old classes; not intuitive to manage roster.
CSV import and cross-platform reliability issues; crashes during import.
App can crash during random selections or generating lists.
Pronunciation of names is imperfect and voice customization is limited.

Recent reviews

This is a great way to call random names and assign visibly random groups! I use it for multiple classes, and even selecting next class awards. I wish there was a way to delete names or class lists though.

I seriously love this app. It helps with picking students to call on, grouping and so much more! I never review apps, but I’ve had this one for a few years now and wanted people to know this one was worth every penny!
