Mobile Slots, Apps & Games

Why can’t I find slot apps on Google Play?

Google’s terms of service prevent the addition of gambling applications to the Play store, however many popular slot sites do still offer Android apps which can be downloaded via a third-party link.

Unless you have downloaded third-party apps before, you may need to change your phone’s settings to allow installation from unknown sources.

Do all mobile casinos offer slot machine games?

Yes. Every mobile casino - or at least those worth visiting - including slots as part of their game selection. Progressive jackpots and bonus rounds are shared with desktop versions, with exactly the same rules and paylines applying across all devices.

Look out for exclusive mobile slot promotions and free spins with no deposit for even more chances to win, but beware that wagering restrictions on slot deals can be prohibitively high - occasionally over 100 times the value of your deposit.

How often are new mobile slots sites added to the list?

We update our list to include the newest mobile slot sites throughout each month, as soon as we’ve had the chance to verify and review them. All of our site reviews include published and updated dates, allowing you to sort and filter any category by launch date or freshness.

How to choose a new mobile slots site

There are many issues to consider when deciding on the best mobile casino for you. You should think about the mobile slot games you want to play, the software you prefer, the layouts and design you find most user-friendly and the banking options you need. For example, some sites only accept certain deposit methods. You will also find some mobile casinos offer better promotions and bonuses than others, so if you want a big welcome bonus this is something to consider.

One great way of narrowing down the list is to do some research to discover what other players are saying about the different mobile casinos. Player reviews are ideal for reading honest opinions of the mobile sites, while professional review sites can give good information on the technical aspects. It is also advisable to look for casinos that offer reliable 24/7 customer support, so if you need help or advice you can easily contact the support team.

Where can I play Rainbow Riches and Fluffy Favourites on my phone?

When it comes to playing popular slot machines, two particular games rule over all others. Fortunately, the extreme demand for Rainbow Riches and Fluffy Favourites means they can be found at almost any bingo, slot or casino site.

Some even offer the games as free to play demos, allowing you to test your phone’s compatibility with the software before you spend any real money.

Making a strategy for mobile slots

No, there is no strategy required for playing mobile slot games. Whether you win or not is down to pure luck. This means that all mobile slots players have an equal chance of hitting a payout. The only time this doesn’t apply is if a slot has a progressive jackpot which sometimes means that the bigger your bets are, the more likely you are to trigger the progressive.

You may find your own playing style suits smartphones or tablets better and players often devise their own strategies, such as choosing more free spins over bigger multipliers if they have the choice. In the end, mobile slots do not require a strategy as they are games of pure chance.

However, there are things you can do to increase your "edge", as it were. For example, learning about RTP% can help you decide which slot games are most worth your time.

What is RTP%?

RTP stands for ‘return to player’. It tells you the average amount of money that is returned to the player in winnings on a slot machine expressed as a percentage. It is important to remember that the RTP of a slot machine is only an average across all wagers on one slot. It is not a guarantee of a certain number of wins from your gaming session. For example, if a slot has an RTP of 95.97%, this means that on average across all players, the slot will pay out £95.97 on £100 worth of wagers.

By picking slots with a higher RTP%, you can give yourself a better chance of coming away from the mobile slot with a profit.

What is volatility/variance?

Another undefined feature of all slots is volatility or variance. The volatility rating of a slot tells you how risky a game is. A low volatility/variance slot pays out little and often. In contrast, a high volatility/high variance slot pays out less frequently but the rewards will be higher. Whether you choose to play a high or low volatility slot depends on your own attitude to risk.

If you are happy to go for a long stretch of time without a win in the hope of hitting a monster payout, a high volatility game could be a great choice for you. However, if you have a smaller bankroll and don’t want to wait too long for a payout then you should opt for a lower volatility game, which will pay you a small amount every few spins. A medium volatility slot lies somewhere in between and will offer a medium balance of risk to reward.

Why playing on mobile or tablet is better

One great advantage of mobile slots over regular online slots is that you can play mobile slots virtually anywhere. As long as you have internet access you can login and play your favourite slot games, whether you are on your lunch break at work, sitting in a cafe, standing in a queue, travelling on the bus or at home in bed. Mobile slots offer ease of access and simplified controls for optimised play. You can also find a range of mobile-only bonuses and promotions at many online casinos with lucrative rewards that are not always accessible to desktop players.

The best of the best?

Most big name slot sites have a mobile version available, so you can play at the famous casino brands, such as 888Casino or 32Red Casino. There are also many mobile specialist casinos that are designed for mobile players only. These can often only be played on smartphones and tablets with no desktop option. Some popular dedicated mobile casinos include mFortune Casino and LadyLucks Casino.
