Tired of shuffling? This app will shuffle your action cards, choose ten and sort instantaneously by box, cost and alphabetically. Then just get out your boxes, grab the cards in order from each box and you're ready to play. No more fiddling around with those lame blue-bordered randomizer cards... you could even throw them away! There's even a Black Market helper, so you don't need to set up a Black Market deck when playing with this promo card.
You'll have more time to play and less time to set up and tear down. Personally I've found this eliminates FIVE MINUTES of the setup and teardown time for every single game I play. Also, the results are more random. Keep track of them with this app - and if you managed to add promo cards to your collection like Black Market and Envoy, this app can include them in the draw as well.
Choose with which sets you want to play. Your friend doesn't have Guilds and Adventures? Turn them off. Visiting Germany to show off your skillz abroad? Choose the German cards - the interface will remain in English! The app will remember your settings automatically, so you don't have to set it up again each time. What are you waiting for? Get it now and spend more time playing, because we all know Dominion players already shuffle too much!

Reviews
Awesome- just what I wanted!

Our gaming group played a couple games of Dominion (to be clear, Dominion is a non iPhone card game and as this developer states - this app is not a game itself) yesterday, and the owner of Dominion left the game with my husband and I as he had to leave early. This morning I thought - there has got to be an iPhone app or a website that randomizes choosing the 10 sets of cards (from over 50 choices) when setting up the game. Voilà, there is! Certainly worth 99 cents. Also by a different dev, check out the Score! App, as I used this to tally up 5 people's scores in Agricola.
Excellent

This app is far better than the randomizer cards in Dominion. Perfect for regular players.
Great randomizing utility
Starwarsgolfer
This app does a fine job of sorting and randomizing cards fir the board game dominion. Time will tell if the randomizer is really random. I look forward to seeing updates and fun bells and whistles fir this app. Can't miss for 99 cents!
Fabulous companion to Dominion
AtlantaTwin
LOVE IT! Especially now with the new update that we can forbid cards from being selected by the randomizer. (sometimes you just get tired of playing with the Pirate Ship!). We don't play Dominion without this, and even bought it on a different iPhone when the owner of the first one had to leave to go to work.
Handy app

I picked this up for $0.99 prior to Dominion Kingdoms. I prefer The latter, especially at the price point of free, but made use of this app multiple times in the meantime. It's not a bad deal at $0.99 but it feels like it should be a freebie.
Does what it says but missing features
TxOrj
This app does what it says but it is missing features compared to the others that are free and paid. Not bad but not the best. On the plus side it has localizations which others do not.
Meh.

Weighted Alchemy picking rules are the only thing this app has that Kingdom Deck doesn't, and KD makes it way easier to trade out individual picks you aren't in the mood for, plus has an awesome Black Market deck feature. KD is free. At $0.99 I don't really regret purchasing this app, but I almost always use KD instead.
Almost my favorite Dominion randomizer
CoolDuck314
Cornucopia support - great! Black Market deck support - good! Colony/Platinum selection - check. One small problem: sometimes the app forgets to select a Bane pile. I do like the undo feature with the Black Market deck randomizer - my friends are indecisive - but it seems a little buggy: the app crashes if you undo while the deck is empty. Also, after every button you tap on this screen, there is an annoying redraw. Even for a $1 game I expect a little polish in the UI. This app doesn't have the most comprehensive randomization options (required reaction, require additional actions, et cetera) - but I don't use those anyway.
Nice Dominion App but lacks some customizing options
MHG1
This app is almost right up there with the best of the Dominion apps except it lacks some of the customizing options of the very best. For instance, it would be nice to have options to ensure cards with extra buys and actions, curses, defense cards, attacks and curse removal cards. When it gets those customizing options, I gladly will give it 5 stars.
Excellent Card Picker for Dominion
Rictorg
Best one I've found. Includes all sets and promos, Randomly includes alchemy while ensuring there's a sufficient number of cards from the set. Randomly includes colonies and platinum based on the rules. Allows for cards to be blacklisted. It even maintains a black market deck. Awesome. This is the one to get if you're looking for a card picker.
