One of the features in Mach Dice is the ability to count different dice values (go into the settings and tap “Bottom Button Shows” for all the options). For example, you could roll “20d6” and have it count the number of 4s that you rolled.

This turned out to be pretty useful. But more often, you’ll want to count the number of dice that are greater than or equal to a particular value. So I’m starting to implement that feature as well.

I also discovered that the iPhone can display numbers in circles, like “➀” (“Dingbat Circled Sans-Serif Digit One”, or “Unicode 2780” for short). So I’ve tweaked the bottom bar display to make it a bit more readable.
