First, you enter the number of armies attacking and defending. Then, hit go. As the app runs, it shows you each roll of the dice, and the results. You can speed it up or slow it down as it runs. At any point, you can choose to stop the attack, and then restart it from the same point.
The dice are rolled using the arc4random() function from the c library: stdlib.h. This is an industry accepted random number generated, and is almost certainly more random than the dice that came with your game.
This app is not affiliated with any company who makes Risk games, or any board games. It does not give any features that allow you to play the game of Risk, it is only a supplement to make your Risk games more fun.

Does what it says!

Nice auto-roller! The ability to have it auto-roll at different speeds is very nice! It allows you to to either calculate a winner quickly, or proceed more slowly so that you may root as the battle proceeds!
RISK MUST-HAVE

Anyone who plays the game risk, ever, needs this, period. Does what it says in a simple, space saving format. Only Suggestions: Dice for non risk games. Better graphics. ?????????????
Every attack is continuous

At the slowest speed setting, the default ought to be that the dice rolling automatically stops, requiring hitting "Go" to continue.
Great, but needs a little tweaking.

Excellent app for this game, does what it says. Only drawback is that you can't stop rolling the dice until someone completely loses; this takes away from the players control as he plays the game. Change that aspect of it and it is perfect!

It does what it needs to do, nothing more, nothing less. 5 stars because it has saved me and my friends a lot of time. It's a must have when you've got a fight between two groups of 20+ and don't want to spend the rest of the day rolling dice.
This app is awful

I was playing a four hour game with four of my cousins and it got to the point where we just wanted the game to end. We found this app, used it, and I lost a 47 to 11 battle that blew the game. Worst app ever. Don't use it
