Looks like a Pill Bug (I think they are the same family  ) but not sure.

It is a Pill Bug, Armadillidium vulgare. I had one once which was huge, and old, couldn't believe the size. They belong to the family Armadillidiidae, where the Common Woodlouse Oniscus asellus for example belongs to the family Oniscidae but they both belong to the Order Isopoda.
