So the app itself does *not generate the randomness, it asks the system for a certain amount of entropy. The system get it from a pool of entropy generated from hardware on the device. So theres an onboard RNG that gets mixed with software pseudo RNG and when you create a seed the wallet draws from that. It's pretty fucking random. There have been many extremely autistic people concerned about RNG for about 50 years. It is an extremely well understood space. and the implementation of that randomness has been examined by orders of magnitude more people than any small hardware company. Randomness generated on a device is certainly more random than the 2 - 3% loss of entropy you'll get from dice not being perfectly milled. The problem with your device is that it might have malware on it, not that the RNG is bad. #bitcoin #RNG
