Matthias.

The disciples voted on Matthias, but God revealed himself to Paul and appointed him as the apostle (hence his repeated claims of being one in his writings).

Matthias (Acts 1:15-26), chosen by lot (chance). There were two candidates, the other being Barsabas Matthias was the only Apostle not chosen personally by Jesus Christ.

G'day Anonymous, Thank you for your question. The apostle who replaced Judas was Matthias. He was chosen by casting lots which was a traditional Jewish way of determining God's will. The timing was that he was chosen between the Ascension of Christ and Pentecost. I have attached sources for your reference.
