Nowadays the average Brit spends more time using a mobile device rather than using a laptop or desktop computer, that is because the smartphone or tablet can do the job just as well and its totally portable.

Whether you feel like accessing one of the many social media sites, editing spreadsheets, watching a movie or playing at a site like Jackpot City why carry about a bulky notebook when there is already a powerful computer in your pocket or bag?

This convenience has been recognized by the gambling industry hence online mobile casinos are growing in numbers and also in quality, and there are some tips that should help you get the most out of your games.

  • Apps are not your only way into a game, so don’t worry if your favorite online casino does not have a dedicated app as many sites now offer no download versions that let you source all the action straight from your browser, and these instant play version are very popular amongst players.
  • Make sure that the games meet your needs after all your mobile phone is part of you and reflects your personality and your individual tastes so don’t get pulled into a site by the promise of amazing bonuses, shop round and try a few sites before committing yourself. You can do this by downloading more than one app and seeing which one you enjoy the best in your own time.  Making a test drive makes complete sense as there are no obligations or cost to you.
  • Remember to complete your research as it pays off in the end, depending on which device you have will determine the quality of your games almost as much as the app itself.
  • If you already access an online casino through your computer there will be no need to create a new account to play via your mobile device as most casinos offer some sort of mobile experience. This means that you can use your existing password and banking details when you register with your mobile, simply follow the link that your favorite casino gives you as this ensures that you are going to download the legitimate app so you are getting the authentic experience.
  • When it comes to size, screen sizes do matter when playing at an online casino as physically small screens just don’t make the grade and are not any real fun at all. The online casino experience is one of immersion so the bigger the screen the better.  Anything under four inches is not really worth using for online casinos. In this case size really does matter.
  • Remember that although mobile apps are becoming more and more popular for accessing online casino games you are not offered the sites full range of games as you are on your desktop. You will find that most games are offered in one form or another but the variety will not be there especially those Live Dealer games that bring the feeling of Vegas right to your screen.
  • This might sound silly but keep your battery charged! Nothing is worse than being in the middle of a roll of the dice and your battery ups and dies on you.  Commonly mobile casino games are not as processor intensive as say a first person shooter but obviously they can still drain your battery and as we still have to rely on lithium batteries until something better comes along. Exiting any battery monopolizing apps from running in the background is a good idea.
  • Lastly a good tip is to avoid any interruptions especially if you are taking part in one of the many interactive mobile tournaments, things like Facebook notifications or calls can really be distracting so an environment without interruptions provides for greater concentration where you can use any strategies or game-play that your favor. Tweak those notification settings whilst you are playing and you won’t go far wrong.
