Despite the fact that sports betting has been growing at a fast pace on mobile, with 50% of the entire market now using their Smart phones as the preferred platform, there is a huge lack of apps for doing so.
The reason for this, Google and Apple are very much against the promotion of gambling apps on their Google Play and iTunes stores.
Nonetheless, sportsbooks have sorted this issue out with mobile friendly websites and even webapps, which are websites designed to run fast and user friendly on mobile devices. The main difference from a real app and a webapp is the fact that apps do not require to be connected to the internet for all functions, although for a sportsbook you kinda do.
A few of the very big online sportsbook have ignored this market hiatus and developed their own betting app anyway, with the download happening straight from their website.
