iPad Casino Apps and Mobile Websites without Download Optimised for Your Tablet PC

If you prefer to play casino games on the go, there is no simpler way than by downloading a dedicated casino app to your iPhone or iPad. Almost every leading online casino offers an app for you to download, whether you head to the App Store or download directly from the casino website. Not only do apps give you ready access to some of the most popular gaming titles hosted by any given casino, but they also give you the added benefit of enhanced security features to protect your account details and online transactions.

Unlike conventional websites which, however well protected, still suffer from the same fraud and phishing scams like any other website, apps are much more secure. What’s more, many real money casino apps now offer players the chance to seamlessly swift between game types, meaning you only need one set of logins to play online slots, table games, live casino titles, bingo games and sports wagers.

Unlike the Google Play Store, Apple’s App Store allows for casino and gambling sites to advertise their official apps via the service. Simply head to the App Store and search for your preferred casino app to find results. Once you have found your preferred app, simply click on ‘install’. Depending on the speed of your internet connection, the download should only take a few moments. Once it is complete, the install button should change to ‘Open’. Click on this to launch the app for the first time. Be sure to save a shortcut of the app to your homepage for quick and easy access in the future.

Always exercise caution when downloading apps from the App Store. Although an app may look like the official release, there is always the chance you could be downloading a sophisticated scam designed to dupe unsuspecting users into parting with their details. Read the app summary thoroughly, and always ensure the provider matches up with the online casino of your choice. For convenience and peace of mind, it is almost always advisable to download an app directly from your casino of choice (see below).

If you can not find an app for download in the store, simply head to the official casino website instead. Here, you will be able to download the app directly to your device. This is often a bulletproof way of ensuring you are downloading the most up to date version of the casino app for your mobile device and negates the risk of you downloading an unofficial app.

If you can not find an app for your favourite casino or are having trouble with downloading and playback, do not despair. It is still possible to play your favourite games via your iPhone casino app with minimal fuss. To do so, simply head to the mobile website of your preferred casino and play via the Safari browser (or whichever browser you prefer to use on your mobile device). Most casino websites offer a responsive mobile version of their main site, giving you access to the same choice of games you would find an app. If you’re using a larger tablet PC/iPad, also consider switching to ‘desktop’ view for access to the same games you would be able to enjoy through a conventional computer. As long as your internet connection is fast and reliable, this is often an ideal way to play.

If you are using an online casino app to play your favourite games, playback should not be a problem as games are optimised for your iOS device. If however, you are attempting to access mobile websites or play via a desktop view on your tablet, chances are you might experience some compatibility issues due to Flash. In order to get around this, your best bet is to download a Flash app to your iOS device (almost always in the form of an internet browser). Accessing online casinos via these types of browsers will immediately resolve any Flash playback errors you’re receiving, giving you full access to all your favourite games.

Alternatively, seek out casinos which offer HTMl5 games, giving you fuss-free access and playback to popular gaming titles without the need for additional downloads.

If online security is of paramount importance to you, and it should be, downloading and playing through a casino app is often the best port of call. Although online casino websites are often protected with strict security protocols and encryption measures, they still suffer from the same phishing scams and sophisticated fraud attempts as any other website. Unless you have an eagle eye and anti-scam software running on your phone or tablet, being able to pick out the signatures of a scam can be incredibly difficult.

Once you have downloaded the official app of a mobile casino, you do not need to worry as much about falling foul of scammers. iOS casino apps limit the amount of information that is processed and received, offering you a much tighter and secure connection to your casino provider. One slight issue can arise when trying to add funds to your play account, as some online casinos require you to do so via the mobile or desktop version of the casino website, as opposed to through the app itself.

Apps are also free to download, although you’ll need to have an active user account and funds to play unless of course, you have happy to play for fun in demo modes. If you are ever asked to pay for an app, exercise caution. Chances are this is probably a scam attempt and the app you are downloading is not an official one.
