Betting Apps vs Mobile Betting
There are two main ways to bet on a smartphone. The first
is by accessing a 👏 bookmaker through your regular browser (e.g. Safari or Google
Chrome). The second is by downloading an app. Is there any 👏 real difference? Is one
better than the other? In truth, there are pros and cons to both but overall, we
👏 recommend downloading a betting app if you are intending to make regular bets.
Cons of
Betting with Sport Betting Apps
While there 👏 are many advantages to betting with an app,
one question should be taken into account, namely:
Do you have enough storage 👏 on your
smartphone?
For models which only offer 16GB or 32GB, squeezing all your apps, photos
and videos onto one device 👏 can be tricky. This is a very real concern for some users,
and one possible reason against using bookmakers’ apps 👏 when they have a perfectly good
mobile site which serves the same purpose.
Cons of Betting via Browser
There are some
significant 👏 cons to using a browser to visit iPhone sports betting sites, too. If you
use a browser to visit your 👏 favourite sports betting site you could run into the
following issues:
No access to exclusive in-app offers
Unable to access all betting
👏 features
Slower loading time than app
Mobile optimisation issues
If you’re only
intending to use a bookie one time, it makes sense to 👏 access it through a browser.
There’s not much point in downloading betting apps for Android or iOS only to delete 👏 it
a few minutes later – unless you’re doing so to access a specific bonus.
So, in these
cases, it’s often 👏 prudent to visit a betting site via a browser. For instance, let’s
say you see a welcome offer for a 👏 bookie you don’t really like. You may want to sign up
just to take advantage of the bonus. This is 👏 the perfect time to access the bookies via
your mobile browser.
If you’re in a hurry – for, say, a live 👏 in-play bet on the footie
– it’s much quicker to fire up an existing app than it is to visit 👏 a website. Trust us,
we know how frustrating it can be to see betting opportunities disappear because it
took too 👏 long to log in to a website and navigate to the betting market that you’re
interested in.
Most bookies have mobile-optimised 👏 websites, but not all. If your one
doesn’t, it could be tricky navigating the site. And you might not even 👏 have access to
all of the same features you would on the app.
Making deposits and withdrawals is also
much easier 👏 on an app. This is one area which can be particularly fiddly using a
browser – and certainly an area 👏 where an incorrect click could be costly. When using an
app, generally these features are made bigger so it’s easy 👏 for you to click through.
