After months of testing and getting positive feedback from players, 888poker's new mobile poker app focuses mainly on player experience first and aims to maximize the enjoyment for every player.
New portrait mode, smooth multi-tabling, and nice customization options are just some of the reasons why the new 888poker app is a great idea to download to your mobile device.
Made to Play
The multi-table option is one of the very first things you will notice when opening up tables to play on the 888poker mobile app.
Most mobile poker sites out there really struggle to match the limited screen space of mobile devices and are unable to replicate a proper multi-tabling experience.
With the new 888poker mobile app, this issue is fixed - in part, at least. Even if you still will not be able to multi-table Nanonoko-style*, the 2020 version of the 888poker mobile app allows you to play up to four tables at the same time.
To browse through the tables, just swipe right-to-left and back. It's simple, neat and easy.
All the different areas of your 888poker account are easily accessible from the app, making it easy for you to know what poker bonuses are currently available and what gifts and rewards you can claim.
You can also check your 888 Club balance and any ongoing challenges straight from the app.
One-handed Play made possible with Portrait Mode
Players are happy that 888poker has added the portrait mode to their app.
Some of the world's top poker sites have recently switched to vertical poker clients, and the new 888poker mobile app also jumped on the bandwagon.
The new 888poker mobile app's lobby shows all the different tournament types you can play straight from your mobile device.
Whether it's Sit & Go's, cash games, poker tournaments or SNAP Poker, you will find what you're looking for at first glance.
Navigating through the tournament lobby is fairly quick and easy, especially when you use filters. Once you learn how to use them, like choosing the game format and buy-in range, you will be able to find the perfect tournament for you in a jiffy!
New App Customization
The settings menu is made more visible than before - you can actually use the settings to make the 888poker app feel like "your own page".
From the main lobby, you can change almost every aspect of your mobile playing experience.
You can set four-color decks, autofocus on tables awaiting your action, auto-rebuy and add-on, or emoji display - everything is right there when you need it.
Emoji display is also an important part of the app because the 888poker app doesn't feature an in-game live chat.
For many people, the chat is fun when you play at real-money poker sites using a desktop, but it can be difficult to do that when you are on mobile.
If you are one of those players who prefer no chat and all play - then download the new 888poker app right now, because they have solved this problem by removing the live chat from their mobile client. Now, only emoji faces are allowed to be used at the table.
Play BLAST Poker on Mobile
Last but not least, the app features also the BLAST Sit & Go games, one of the most appreciated game types on 888poker.
Jackpot SNGs are probably the most popular poker games right now. The main reason is that these are fast - and lots of poker players love action...and more action!
The chance to win $1,000,000 jackpot and grab a huge payout may have something to do with the games' popularity as well.
888poker adds Throwables
888poker is one of the first poker sites to introduce "throwables", and now this player favorite feature appears on their new mobile app too.
To access the throwables menu, just tap on a player. You can then choose from the following items:
- Cake
- Egg
- Snowball
- Tomato
- Trophy
You can also choose to add notes to a player or tag them - a good idea if you wish to use your poker sessions to become a better player and hopefully, win more.
Tags are pre-set by the client. Here is the list of all the player tags available via the 888poker mobile app:
- Fish
- Shark
- Lion
- Donkey
- Sheep
- Chicken
- Whale
The new 888poker app is available for free download on Android and iOS devices.
