The Dice

Roll without the fuss

A die that does what you ask, and nothing else.

You open the app and one is already lying there. Tap the die, or shake the phone, and it rolls. No menu to get through first, no screen where you have to pick something before you can roll.

Want more, tap two, three, four or five. Want a different die, pick d4, d6, d8 or d20. Settings also holds the coin, the d3, the d10, the d12 and the d100.

The dice are drawn as real dice, with thickness, light from the top left and pips that look like drilled holes. With two six-sided dice the Mia value sits underneath, so you do not have to work out whether 65 beats 64.

Mia mode

For games where the phone goes around. You tap to roll and the roll lies face down. You press and hold to look for yourself, then you pass it on. Passing wipes your roll, so the next player cannot look back at what you had.

Sound and shaking

Rolling plays a short sound of tumbling dice, plus a haptic tap. Both can be switched off. The sound respects the silent switch.

Shaking needs three real back and forth movements, so handing the phone to somebody does not roll it.

Also

The app works without internet. There is no account and there are no adverts. Only if you send feedback yourself, with the small tab on the right edge, is anything sent to us: your text and the kind of message, plus the screen you were on, the language, the iOS version and the screen size. Dictating that feedback asks for the microphone and speech recognition.

English, Dutch and Spanish. Works on iPhone and iPad.
