We found that Gbets has a mobile casino that you can only access through your browser. The mobile casino will be the basis for installing a web app on the device. Our analysis revealed that the mobile app is easily navigable and adapts to the size of the screen. The app you will install using the instructions below will have similar features to those of the mobile casino, with added convenience.
Installing a Web App on Your Device
A web app is a shortcut to a mobile website with a link stored on your device’s homepage. It makes accessing the website more convenient, as you do not have to search for the site to play your games. Here are the instructions to follow:
Install on Android using Chrome
- Open your Chrome browser and visit the Gbets website
- Locate three icons on the top right of the page and click them
- Scroll through the available options and click ‘Add to Home Page’
- Name your shotcut and wait for Chrome to add it to your screen
Install on iOS using Safari
- Open Gbets using the Safari browser (other browsers are not compatible)
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap ‘go’, then ‘share’ (the share button looks like an upward arrow enclosed in a square)
- Go through the options and select ‘add to homepage’
- Complete by naming the shortcut and verifying it
- Close Safari and check your app on the homepage
Try accessing your web app after installation and bet with it. It opens in a different window on your browser for ease of access.
Caution when Installing Apps
You should take caution when installing an app on your device. Ensure that you install the app from the official app stores, i.e., the Google Play Store and the Apple App Store. Alternatively, you should download the apk file from the official casino page.
Third-party apps may be laden with malware, be unsafe, or steal your phone’s data. On iOS, simulated gaming apps are not from the betting site but offered by third-party providers. Such apps are useless as they do not offer a real gaming experience and some may have defective security features.
This information may not apply to all app stores or unknown sources, but the risk rises if you leave official app stores or trust bookmaker-recommended sources.
