- Includes 12 different dictionaries.
- Use your own, truly random sequences, produced by real dice.
- Does NOT rely on a pseudorandom number generator (but is able to use one).
Don't have dice? Use the Local PRNG button to generate pseudorandom numbers or hit the Random.org button to use true random numbers generated by atmospheric noise. This feature is the reason the app needs internet access.

5 ★ Works like a charm! All functions work and the interface is ridiculously simple.
2 ★ Can't get it to copy to clipboard.
2 ★ The new version isn't nearly as nice as before. It's significantly slower, and I am certainly not a fan of the blinding white UI.
5 ★ Diceware is the way to go if you want secure, easy to remember passwords and this app is perfect for generating passwords. Uncluttered, works well, excellent!
5 ★ Excactly what I need. Where do I send the money? You should use Flattr.
3 ★ No longer crashes at startup on Samsung galaxy s3 with the latest update. Interface is a little obscure, but it seems to do what it says on the tin. I'm still wary of using an app to create a password though.
3 ★ Do I just click any random number? Instructions says Roll the Dice ...I was confused and for those who did not understand it , you need a real dice.
5 ★ Simple password generator using a proven secure technique. Read FAQ if you're having trouble. Works well with a password manager like KeePass.
4 ★ The UI is a bit opaque, but once you come around the author's way of thinking it makes sense, and it's a heckuva lot easier to use than using diceware by hand
4 ★ It sometimes gets stuck looking for a connection, but otherwise works great for generating truly random sequences of words / numbers.
5 ★ 12345 is supposed to be 'apathy'; that's how the algorithm works. Google 'diceware' for an explanation. This app is great.
4 ★ If you get a random word by rolling 5 times it's not random 12345 came up with apathy both times in a row
