Try adding a reshuffle action.

That’s always worked for me. Perhaps you can show how you have it configured?

I am having the same issue. Was this ever resolved?

Did you try the reshuffle, as I suggested in the other thread?

Yes, I did, thank you. It works in the dev tool, but not on the phone. The problem was I had “reshuffle” on the actual quote, but not on the inline relational list. When I added “reshuffle”, it works in the web dev app, but the phone still shows the same quote each time. And if I expand the list, it is _always_ in the same order.

It also works in the published app - you can see that for yourself [here](https://snowy-fire-6109.glideapp.io/)

Thanks for the demo. This is different from how my app is set up. I have a second table – quotes – and that is what is not being random.

The quote, in my table:

single – says “get random” – always shows the same quote…

Always shown in same order…

I guess I’ll just have to send a support link for my app, because it’s certainly not working on mine.

_update_ _or not_ “support is not available for personal pro apps”… Guess I’ll just live with the bug.
