Best casino apps and mobile casinos in the UK for June 2024

IF you’re anything like me, you will do most of your online gambling through your mobile device and casino apps. Any online casino worth playing at will provide, at the very least, a mobile-optimised site, with many also providing mobile casino apps for added convenience.

With so many options, knowing the best mobile casinos to choose from can be difficult, which is why I’ve put together this handy guide to share my experiences and provide my opinions on the best ones we work with.

🕵️ My take on the best mobile casinos we work with

In this part of the guide, I will take a more in-depth look at each of the online casinos that we work with, providing my honest verdict on why you should consider playing there while also highlighting any issues I had. 

1. MrQ

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: iOS
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: 4.0
• Bonus code: THESUN35
• Mobile games: 900+

MrQ is a strong casino with plenty to offer players. I love the site’s design and find it easy to work through the menus, slot lobby, and bonuses. The customer service was also extremely helpful and was on hand to help with any issues I had. 

One of MrQ's biggest selling points is the lack of wagering requirements attached to any bonuses. I have found that this means bonuses aren’t quite as big as on other sites, but it also provides much more winning potential. 

From a mobile perspective, the MrQ app is great. I downloaded it to my iPhone and found it as intuitive and user-friendly as the desktop site. Unfortunately, there is no app available for Android users. 

2. Mr Vegas

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 7,000+ 

If you’re looking for a mobile casino with a serious games catalogue, look no further than Mr Vegas. This is one of my favourite mobile casinos for slot action, with the sheer number of games on offer winning me over. 

Mr Vegas’s developer list reads like a who’s who of the online slot industry. You can find titles from veteran developers like Pragmatic Play and NetEnt alongside small and innovative studios like Northern Lights Gaming and Crazy Tooth Studio. My personal favourite, Nolimit City, is also featured prominently. Top games available here include modern hits like the Money Train series, Big Bass Bonanza, and Pirots 2, as well as classics like Gonzo’s Quest, Book of Dead, and Tombstone RIP. 

Unfortunately, the casino does not have a mobile app, which is a little disappointing, but its’ mobile site is easy to use. I found the bonuses here generous, but the 35x wagering requirement is not likely to please too many players. 

3. Hotstreak Slots

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android
• Google Play rating: 3.2
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 750

HotStreak Slots is one of the newer casinos on this list, having only received a UKGC license from 2022. Despite its relatively new presence, I have found that Hot Streak has had no problem establishing itself as a top online casino in the UK. 

The casino has over 750 games, working alongside the likes of NetEnt, Pragmatic Play, and Relax Gaming. However, I found the live casino section to be quite small in comparison to some other sites. 

HotStreak Slots also serves up a healthy selection of bonuses, with new customers able to claim a no-deposit bonus of 10 spins. However, the wagering requirements of 60x are high. 

The Android app has a 3.2 rating on the Google Play Store, which, while still good, could be improved. However, in my experience, the app was functional and provided solid slot action with no lags. The lack of an iOS app is disappointing, though. 

4. Duelz

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 1,500+

If you are looking for a more novel mobile betting experience, Duelz Casino would be my recommendation. The site has a unique theme, taking inspiration from battle-based games like Clash of Clans. 

This theme is also used for the site’s design, as well as the bonuses, with players receiving quests and completing challenges to unlock free spins and more. There is a generous rewards-based VIP program that ties into the theme. New players can also claim a welcome bonus worth up to £100 and 100 free spins. 

I had concerns about Duelz’s theme and design transitioning to mobile devices, but these were instantly put to bed when I began playing. The site has been optimised well, and all the games I tested made a smooth transition. However, there is no mobile app, which is a little frustrating. 

5. bet365

• Mobile casino: Yes/No 
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 4.3
• App Store rating: 4.7
• Bonus code: SUN365
• Mobile games: 850+

bet365 is a website that needs no introduction to UK players. If you are a sports bettor, chances are you have spent a lot of time with it. However, it also has a strong casino offering. 

For me, bet365’s layout is a measuring stick for casino usability, with the operator finding a winning formula and sticking with it. The site is easy to use, and it is just as simple when it transitions to mobile. Likewise, its mobile app is also excellent, as highlighted by its 4.7 and 4.6 ratings from thousands of reviews with the App Store and Google Play Stores, respectively. 

There are 850+ games to enjoy, with the operator working alongside top developers, as well as offering some exclusive bet365 and themed titles. 

6. Winomania

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 800+

If you want a casino that rewards regular players, Winomania would be one of my first picks. The site, which launched in 2018, is home to an array of promotions for existing customers, including a detailed loyalty program. I also enjoyed the welcome bonus, with the site having a 100% bonus up to £100. However, I found the wagering requirements to be a little high at 40x, but the minimum of £10 deposit is great for beginners.

There are over 800 games that can be enjoyed on desktop and mobile, though there is no mobile app available at the time of writing. 

7. Voodoo Dreams

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 1,600+

Voodoo Dreams is one of the newer casinos on the market, and it instantly impressed me with its slick modern design and big collection of games. There are over 1,600 games to choose from, with a stacked slot and live casino section. The latter is powered by Evolution, the provider I consider to be the industry standard-bearer. 

This slick design transitions well onto mobile devices, though there is no mobile app available. The casino also serves up a generous welcome bonus, providing new players with a 100% deposit bonus of up to £50 and 50 free spins. You can also enjoy weekly tournaments and jackpot promotions, as well as a generous loyalty program. 

8. 10bet

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 2.2
• App Store rating: 3.4
• Bonus code: CASINO10
• Mobile games: 900+

Another huge name on the sports betting scene with a strong presence in the online casino world is 10bet. 10bet has been a favourite of mine for many years, and the site has been active since 2003. 

One of my favourite things about 10bet is its game selection. It is home to over 900 slots, and it works alongside leading developers like Pragmatic Play and NetEnt; it also boasts an impressive jackpot section. The live casino section is powered by Evolution, which is never a bad thing. You can enjoy live versions of classics like roulette and blackjack, as well as TV-show-themed games like Live Deal or No Deal or Crazy Time. 

If you want to gamble using a mobile app, 10bet would be one of my recommendations. It has a stellar app that can be downloaded for free from the App Store and Google Play Store. 

9. talkSPORT Bet

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 4.5
• App Store rating: 4.8
• Bonus code: Not Required
• Mobile games: 400+

I had high hopes when talkSPORT Bet hit the market in 2022, with the site being a joint project between talkSPORT and BetVictor. Needless to say, I was not disappointed. 

I am a big fan of the BetVictor Group’s website layouts, and it combines perfectly with talkSPORT’s iconic yellow and black branding. The site is easy to navigate, well-designed, and has a straightforward registration process. 

Despite being predominantly based on sports, I was happy to find a good casino-section with over 400 slots for players to enjoy. There is also a generous welcome bonus worth £20 for new customers, though, the number of promotions for existing customers is a little on the low-side. 

I was very impressed with the talkSPORT Bet mobile app. The site’s simple design translates well to smaller screens, and it boasts impressive ratings of 4.8 and 4.5 in the App and Google Play Stores, respectively. 

10. Casumo

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 2.4
• App Store rating: 3.6
• Bonus code: Not Required
• Mobile games: 3,500+

Casumo is a brand I have always enjoyed playing at. The site has a fantastic design and it is home to some of the best customer support in the industry. Not only that, it is home to a whopping 3,500 slots, which is more than most other casinos I’ve played at. 

This ease of use and great service can is also transferred to the mobile site and app. I found the app to be a joy to use, with the site’s simple, colourful design being perfectly optimised for use on smaller screens. 

11. BetMGM

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 4.4
• App Store rating: 4.5
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 2,800+

BetMGM burst onto the UK scene in 2023 and has already established itself as one of the biggest operators in the country. Like many gamblers, I was well aware of BetMGM due to its huge physical and online presence in America, and I was excited to see what its UK offering had in store. 

I was not disappointed. The site has a vast selection of games from some of the industry’s top names, including Pragmatic Play, Microgaming, and Blueprint. There are over 2,800 games, all perfectly optimised for mobile use. 

For mobile use, the BetMGM mobile app can be downloaded from the Google Play Store. It has mixed reviews, but I found the app to be perfectly functional. Many of the reviews note issues with the sportsbook, not the casino. 

The site emphasizes sports betting, and many promotions highlight this. However, casino users still have a good range, with the welcome bonus offering up to £200. Players can also join the BetMGM loyalty scheme, which is one of the best in the casino industry. 

12. Betway

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 4.2
• App Store rating: 4.8
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 3200+

If you are looking for an extremely dependable brand with a glowing reputation and years of experience, Betway is the site for you. The operator has been active in the UK since 2006, and it has firmly earned the right to be dining at the top table. 

The site is popular among sports bettors and casino players, boasting a top-quality service all-round while also offering up bonuses and brilliant customer service. 

I am also a big fan of the mobile app, and I’m not the only one, with it holding a very impressive 4.2 and 4.8 from the Google Play and App stores, respectively. These are extremely impressive numbers, with these ratings both coming from over 12,000 votes. The game collection here is not as big as other casinos, with the site’s focus being on sports betting, but it still holds up and boasts plenty of quality. 

13. Bally Casino

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Android, iOS
• Google Play rating: 4.6
• App Store rating: 4.6
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 700+

Bally Casino is a huge name in the gambling world, having held a physical presence at casinos in the US for over 75 years. I was delighted to see the brand enter the UK market, and it has not disappointed. 

Players can sink their teeth into a lobby with over 700 games, as well as a plethora of bonuses. I enjoyed the emphasis on Megaways slots, with the welcome bonus offering 30 free spins on the popular Secrets of Phoenix Megaways game. There is also a fun weekly promotion called Casino Showdown where players can win cash prizes. 

It is also an excellent mobile casino, with apps available for Android and iOS. If I were to highlight somewhere it could improve, I’d say it could benefit from more banking options. 

14. Magic Red

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not Required
• Mobile games: 1,000+

Despite not having a mobile app, Magic Red is still one of my favourite casinos to play on a mobile device. The site has a really nice design that feels as though it was designed with mobile users in mind, and this is complemented by an impressive game catalogue of over 1,000 titles from some of the biggest names in the industry. 

I often come to Magic Red for its range of ongoing promotions, with the operator regularly updating this and holding developer-specific promotions. It works closely with the likes of Pragmatic Play and other developers to host tournaments and offer big jackpot prizes. 

15. 32Red

• Mobile casino: Yes
• App: Not Available
• Google Play rating: N/A
• App Store rating: N/A
• Bonus code: Not required
• Mobile games: 500+

If you want some solid mobile action, 32Red has you covered. 32Red has a smaller selection than many of its counterparts, but it packs a punch in terms of website design and customer experience. I have always found its customer service options to be great, and it also runs some unique promotions. 

There are multiple apps available, with one dedicated to the entire casino on Apple, and another dedicated to roulette called Roulette Streak. While the overall number of games on the site is not as big as some other casinos, I did enjoy the table and live casino selections here. 

📋 How I pick casino apps and mobile casinos: Method explained

As an experienced online casino reviewer and player, there are several things I am looking for when I first visit a new site. The following are the important criteria a casino needs to meet for me to recommend it to other players: 

• Licensing: First and foremost, licensing is essential. When I visit a site, I scroll down the page to see if its UKGC licensing information is available. If it isn’t, I immediately hit the back button and left the site. This is essential to ensure my safety and security when playing on a site. It should be clearly displayed and easy to find. 
• Security and privacy: As I’ve mentioned, my safety and security are the most important things when I’m playing online. I will always check to see if the payment methods are secure and if the casino is using the correct encryption technology. Further auditing and certificates are always a bonus. A casino can never be too safe. 
• Mobile compatibility: Mobile gaming is a big part of my online gambling experience, and I need a site that is well-optimised for use. While 99% of online casinos now provide mobile betting sites, not all of them are created equal. I need a site that functions well across devices and screen sizes with an intuitive interface and, if necessary, additional mobile security features. 
• User interface: When I sign into a casino for the first time, I want to be able to find everything I need easily. As such, when reviewing casinos, I will always assess their user interface and mark them based on their menus, filtering options, and general usability. 
• Selection of games and software providers: You can never have too many slots to play. When reviewing a site, I always spend time checking its game portfolio to see what it offers and the quality of developers it works with. 
• Available payment methods: A casino can be all-signing and dancing, but if getting money in and out of it is difficult, I am not going to recommend it. In the modern gaming environment, casinos should provide a selection of payment methods that are both mobile and desktop-friendly. 
• Customer support and service: Customer support is essential to a good all-round online casino experience. If I run into a problem, I want to know I can get it fixed quickly and professionally. I will always test customer support when available by asking them a series of questions related to potential issues I could have. I then feed back to my readers through my reviews.

⬇️ How I download mobile apps safely and securely

It has never been easier to download a mobile casino app. These are the steps I follow when I want to download a new mobile casino app to my phone or tablet: 

1. Log in to your Apple or Google account. My account, like many others, is set to auto-login, but I still have a security check in place to confirm I am accessing it. 
2. Type in the name of the casino you are looking for. 
3. When I have located the app, I check the reviews. I always recommend looking through the casino reviews in detail. The reason for this is simple: some reviewers may have left negative reviews because they lost money on the site, which is no fault of the casino. 
4. Click the download button. Once again, I have an additional security check in place before I can confirm any downloads. 
5. Your app should now be available on your home page. I personally like to move into a pre-made casino folder before I open it. 
6. Load the app up, sign in, make your deposit, and enjoy!

📱 Mobile site vs Casino app: My preferences 

One question many online players have is: If I have access to the mobile site, then why do I need to download the app? It’s a valid question, and in all honesty, it comes down to personal preference. 

For me, online casino apps provide an extra level of convenience. They are often much quicker than mobile sites and are easily accessed from the home screen. They have also been 100% designed with mobile users in mind, whereas some mobile sites have not been as well optimised as they could have been. 

Of course, unless you have huge storage on your phone, you will want to be selective with what apps you download. For some people, downloading casino apps may not be practical, in which case, having access to the mobile site may be the best way to go. 

📈 Rising popularity of mobile casinos

Mobile casinos have boomed in the last decade. While desktop casinos are still popular, they are clearly being outperformed by their mobile counterparts. Figures from the UKGC published in 2021 

The UKGC also on player behaviour, that was first published in 2019 and updated in 2022 that showed 76% of players aged 18-24 and 72% of players aged 25-34 are more likely to gamble using their mobile phone. 

A further into why people gambled in 2023 showed that having access to mobile casinos removed limitations and made gambling more accessible for players. 

FAQ about casino apps

I regularly get asked questions about mobile casino apps from new and experienced players. The following are the most common questions players have about using mobile casino apps. 

1. What are the benefits of playing at a mobile casino?

The benefits of mobile casinos certainly outweigh the limitations. Firstly, mobile casinos are increasingly quick and easy to use. Whether accessed via your mobile browser or a dedicated app, casinos make it possible to place bets anywhere, at any time. You can also take advantage of a host of promotions, including welcome bonuses and VIP rewards. Players will also be able to deposit and withdraw money on mobile. 

2. What are the disadvantages of mobile casinos?

There are also a few negatives surrounding using mobile casinos. The standout disadvantage is that the number of games will most likely be smaller in comparison to desktop platforms. This is because not all games have been developed with mobile devices in mind. Meanwhile, some mobile casinos are slow and difficult to use. Of course, this is not the case with our recommended casinos. 

3. What are the best casino games to play on your mobile?

Mobile players will be pleased with the variety of casino games available today. In most cases, hundreds, if not thousands, of slots are available. These include classic, branded, Megaways, and progressive jackpot options. Meanwhile, software-based roulette, blackjack, baccarat, and other popular table games can be found. Live dealer games should not be overlooked either, offering a realistic casino experience. With some mobile casinos, you can also bet on video poker, scratchcards, bingo, and more. It all depends on what you enjoy.

For example, if you like poker, find a casino that offers online live poker and you'll never grow bored.

Keep in mind that the same casino games you'll play on your PC, you'll find on your mobile phone. Game providers such as Microgaming, Playtech, NetEnt, Play'n GO, and many others optimize their games for mobile play. Therefore, slot games such as Starburst will look great even on a small screen. 

4. What is the best casino mobile app in the UK?

While many online casinos are available on mobile, it is not always through a dedicated app. Apps are generally more efficient than mobile casino websites. Available on both iOS and Android devices, it is the BetMGM app that I rank among the best ones in the UK. The app is easy to use and features thousands of games. 

5. Are there any fees on mobile casinos for UK players?

In most cases, the answer to this question is no. Players are able to register for free and even play certain games without investing their own money. The only potential fee that can be incurred is for withdrawing winnings. With selected casinos and payment methods, a small processing fee may be added. However, this is generally covered by the casino itself. 

6. What are the best mobile casino payment methods?

In the UK, a variety of payment methods are accepted by mobile casinos. Debit cards from Visa and Mastercard can be used for both deposits and withdrawals, along with e-wallets, such as PayPal, Skrill, and Neteller. Apple Pay, Google Pay, and Paysafecard are among the other options available to players. Deposits are processed instantly, with withdrawals taking anywhere between 1-5 working days in most cases. Be sure to select a payment method that is quick, secure and does not incur any processing fees. 

7. Can I claim bonuses on mobile casinos?

Absolutely. One of the main selling points of mobile casinos is the bonuses and promotions that await. Each mobile casino on this page comes with some form of a welcome bonus. Meanwhile, ongoing promotions and VIP rewards help to keep existing customers satisfied. Just be sure to read the bonus terms and conditions before signing up. 

8. What is the best mobile casino for iOS?

For iPhone and iPad users, you will want to sign up with a mobile casino that works well on iOS devices. Given how popular such devices are, most mobile casinos do just that. However, some stand out in particular. MrQ casino is one, given its iOS casino app. 

9. What is the best mobile casino for Android?

The mobile casino that scores the highest when it comes to Android devices is 32Red. With vast experience, this mobile casino makes it simple to operate on Samsung Galaxy, Google Pixel, and other popular Android devices.

My closing thoughts on mobile casino gaming

Mobile gaming is increasingly becoming the main way to play at online casinos, and it’s easy to see why. Personally, the ability to take out my phone and play as and where I want has made casino play much more fun and accessible, allowing me to access my favourite games whenever I want to. Mobile apps, while not vital, also add an additional convenience and can enhance the gameplay experience.
