The new Betfair Poker iOS app is available to download from the Apple App Store right now so we suggest you find your phone or iPad, head to the store and install it because it’s a massive improvement on the old version.

One of the best features is it gives you the ability to play poker in portrait orientation instead of landscape. Mobile phone users naturally use their phone in portrait orientation. It’s more natural because of the phone’s shape. Playing in portrait is much simpler because everything is within reach of your thumb, or you have your other hand free to use. When was the last time, except watching a movie, that you turned your phone into landscape?

Betfair has improved the navigation of the app. It’s now much smoother and it’s possible to swipe from the Home Page directly into the Lobby. You’ll also find your favourite games and get into them faster because you can buy into Twister tournaments directly from the home page or via the dedicated Twister lobby. This is perfect if you’re trying to get your grind on for the Twister races Betfair frequently runs.

There’s a new addition to the app when it comes to playing Speed Poker on the iOS app. Speed Poker is Betfair Poker’s take on the fast-fold format of the game. You’ll quickly notice the fold button is divided into two. Pressing one have triggers the Speed Fold which folds your hand and send you to a new table. There’s also the option to Fold and Watch, which folds your hand but the action stays on the table until the hand is completed.

This is perfect for when you know you need to fold but just have to see what happened in the rest of the hand.

Finally, Betfair Poker has made it possible to configure your own betting buttons for cash games and tournaments. There are an array of options, including customising the buttons to bet a specific number of big blinds or a percentage of the pot.

How Good is Mobile Poker at Betfair?

In order to assess just how good any mobile poker app is, it is important to consider a few vital elements and how they compare with similar competing apps. Three of the most important of those elements are undoubtedly the compatibility of the app, the usability of the app’s software and any other ongoing promotions available to customers:

Betfair Official Site

Compatibility

The Betfair poker app is compatible with mobile devices and tablets that run on both iOS and Android operating systems but the way in which to access the app does differ between those two types of device.

For iOS devices, downloading the app is as simple a process. All you need to do is tap this link mpoker.betfair.com to visit the site and you’ll be automatically asked if you want to download the app or not (best to make an account before you do this).

The app cannot be downloaded via the Play Store on Android devices however, so in this case users must access mpoker.betfair.com via their web browser and then either play online or tap the clear download link and then follow the instructions.

Software

Betfair Poker App

Using the same general Playtech platform as most other mobile poker apps, the Betfair offering is unquestionably well designed and easy to understand.

The app runs extremely well and it is very rare for there to be any real lag or for glitches to interfere with gameplay. This all makes the app pleasantly usable and one which in terms of functionality will suit both occasional and regular players.

Other promotions

Unfortunately for Betfair mobile poker app users, the already small selection of ongoing promotions associated with Betfair poker becomes even smaller via the mobile app.

Of the limited selection of promotions available, the most notable is the so-called ‘Poker Loyalty Club’.

This loyalty scheme allows users to collect 25 ‘Status Points’ for each €1 rake or fee spent through the app and multiplies these points by the user’s VIP Club Multiplier to create ‘VPPs’ which can be cashed in for bonuses at a rate €1 for every 375 ‘VPPs’ earned.

How Does Betfair Mobile Poker Compare?

Betfair Poker App Not Working

Betfair’s mobile apps are often amongst the most user-friendly and easy to use and this remains the case with their mobile poker offering. The well-designed software is easy to understand and simple to navigate even for beginners to mobile poker, whilst the smooth running of the app will be appreciated by even the most regular of players.

The app also boasts a reasonable selection of different tables and games, but this selection is a little more limited than those provided by some major competitors. It is in the area of bonuses and promotions however, where the Betfair app noticeably falls behind those competitors.

Betfair Poker App

The welcome package provided by Betfair poker is actually a reasonably generous one, with a 200% deposit bonus and other added extras included. However on going promotions are very limited so once the welcome bonus has run out you’ll struggle to find extra value.

Betfair Online

From time to time re-load / re-deposit bonuses are available but these are generally few and far between.
