Betting Apps Guide 2018

Betting apps have been around for some time now and like most things, they are constantly evolving around their environment. Faster mobile devices with more processing power offer the opportunity for developers to heighten graphics, add more features and also offer more in terms of betting events and markets.

Apps are offering a greater level of choice and flexibility than ever before and bookmakers are continually battling with each other to make their betting service and offerings the best there is. The pace of change can be quite daunting as offers and promotions are constantly being updated in preparation for the next big sporting event. Whether it’s NBA betting or the Superbowl there’s always going to be an offer for new customers to sink their teeth into!

With this in mind, you may understandably be a little confused as to which app is right for you and which one will provide you with the best value for your particular style of betting. From our experience sticking with only one sportsbook and sharing your loyalty solely with them is no way to achieve the best level of choice or value possible.

Well, how do you know what the company is offering what promotion or feature? – That’s what we thought, which is why we bring you this website. Here you can find reviews on all the best betting apps currently available in your region. We describe the features available within each app as well and provide our thoughts and opinions on what we like and what we don’t – Find the best app for your region here

Which platform is best?

We often get asked this question but if you’re using an up to date phone there will be no major differences between Apple and Android. The apps are usually made from the same code and designed to look the same as the mobile sportsbook or casino. If you want to save space in your mobile you can use the mobile sites instead (where available)

There’s nothing stopping you from having multiple betting accounts set up across multiple sports books and you don’t have to deposit money or keep betting accounts topped up with a balance at all times. By being account holders of multiple mobile sportsbooks, we then find we have more choice as well as control over our betting. Some are better than others in certain areas so it is wise in our opinion to utilize the apps that have features or promotions that suit.

We wouldn’t recommend registering with multiple betting apps at the same time for a number of reasons. Firstly it is best to get a full understanding of an app works in terms of the layout and how it behaves. The only real way of doing this is by spending time on it and navigating through the menus. If you are trying to get to grips with more than one at the same time, it can get quite confusing and may lead to you not exploring apps in enough depth.

There is also the fact that new customer promotions normally come attached with time limitations on bonus amounts and rewards, meaning you only have a certain amount of time to claim rewards or use bonus funds. Registering for multiple accounts at once would force you to deposit money into each in order to get maximum value from each company. This could well easily lead you over your allocated budget.

Try not to get suckered into a bookmaker just because it is offering a mind-blowing new customer offer. By all means, take advantage of them if the offer is that good, but from our experience, there is normally a long list of terms and conditions that accompany such offers that make the overall ‘reward’ not as attractive as first thought. We do detail bookmaker offers that we think do indeed offer value and always include the fine detail as to what each offer actually entails.

Also be aware that just because an online gambling operator has a license this doesn’t then indicate a certain standard of service.

Different gambling operators are cropping up all the time in all directions and we do a good job here at testing all newcomers to the industry – See our latest review of the Sugar House app for example (A Legal New Jersey sports book).

The online bookmakers that are credible and offer a decent level of service get a worthy mention on our site and a review – the names that do nothing but bring shame on the industry by offering a half working effort do not get any mention so not to give the bad betting apps extra publicity and to also save your time by getting you to focus on those you should be checking out.

Top 10 Apps?

Here are the top 10 apps in the USA currently – When the regulation changes could we see a gambling app making the top 100 charts?

From our research into gambling and apps we’ve seen sports betting apps make the iTunes top 10 in the UK on numerous occasions – Usually the Cheltenham horse racing festival and the Grand National horse race.

In the US we’d expect to see a surge of downloads happen when Super Bowl betting is available as well as the World Series Baseball, NBA finals and maybe the college football playoffs.
