• "least buggy UI? fanduel in my experience"
• "FanDuel’s app is my favorite, although recently it has gotten pretty cluttered with new menu options etc. The built in streaming for some events, especially obscure tennis matches, Asian baseball, and others is also pretty nice." 
• "I've had the most consistency out of the Fanduel app. Still buggy here and there, but in my experience it's leagues better than Caesars or DK (the other two I typically use)."

• "This app is absolutely amazing. You get higher payouts than most. It is quick and easy to deposit or to withdraw your winnings."

• "I switched from an iphone to android, so I've used them on both on a daily basis. Draftkings ran perfectly on iOS, very smooth and not buggy. but I actually use DK less now because the Android app is miserable to use. it's so laggy, randomly logs me out, drops my location, and just takes forever to navigate through pages."
• "Draftkings has an easy to use app which isn't too laggy and my payout went smoothly." 
• "i really like draftkings for their odds, promos and welcome offers, but their customer service is really not great… took them like 3 days to answer a simple question of mine. you can also only coordinate through email which, at least for me, seems antiquated and slow. UI is laggy at times though"
• "I think Draftkings has best customer service but that is based on personal experience. The couple of times I've run into issues with Draftkings, they've replied very quickly and more than made up for the issues I faced." 
• "DK app 'poor connection is causing app to be slow' regardless of where I’m at even with wifi. It’s really frustrating as someone who has been doing more live bets lately"

• "I have tried all the Sportsbook apps and I have to admit fanatics is the best...they give you boosts and bonus so you never out the game" 

• "I've been using other big-name apps for a while now. Fanatics may not have all the constant promos and boosts that others offer. But when it comes to speed and ease-of-use, Fanatics takes the cake. It looks great, too. I can see it becoming my primary spot to place some action." 
• "Easy to use, this wager app offers great promos. Thx happy customer so far after 4 days."
• "Underrated Sports book. Lines are fair, cash rewards are better than most, almost instant bet settling, even in-game. Not as many parlay options but parlays are generally for suckers, anyways. This one is growing on me."
• "I'm not one to write reviews but this sportsbook is simply the best. With fair play rules, good maxes on boosts. I will always recommend Fanatics!" 

• "Fanatics is my go to for sure! Easy to use interface, great fan cash rewards, quick withdrawals and usually less juicy lines"
• "Fanatics is the best withdrawal time, it shows up instantly in my bank account" 
• "I like the fancash I accumulate and get free [stuff] on." 
• "I thought fanatics was the best overall [definitely] better than DK sometimes FD has better odds [though]" 
• "People hate fanatics but they always have the thinnest lines and they don’t glitch like MGM." 
• "I have had a great experience with fanatics I feel like they have a great support and starter bonuses. I’ve felt like a get way more promo $ from them accrued from betting and bought cool [stuff] from their store"

• "Hard Rock Bet is a great app with a wide range of sports betting options and competitive odds. The live betting feature adds excitement, and the platform is secure and user-friendly. Customer support is responsive, making it highly recommended for a reliable betting experience."
• "A+ this is a great app easy deposit and withdrawals receive withdrawals next day depending on bank but [this] app overall 10/10" 
• "I am a recent joiner of the hard rock bet app and it is already one of my favorites. There are tons of props on here!"

• "Please make it to where you can actually see your betting stats. An export function would be cool too."
• "Awesome features and graphics."

• "I live in Florida so I’m biased and it’s really the only sports book that I can use but hard rock got ALOT better they just recently (within the last couple months) added basically everything that the big sports books have had for years. It actually turned into a really good book I got no complaints about them anymore. They just added the progress bars, profit boosts, they got the tier reward system, never had any payout issues with them (if I ever did support fixed it relatively quickly)"

• "I like the rebrand, but it could've been done with more of an update. To me, the design is one of the best, and they have decent promotions. The one caveat I have is the cash out options or canceling a wager before the games start. ... Really it comes down to some issues with value that I'm losing on the cash out side, and some features that I find generally useful. Besides that, I find PENN to be doing a great job, I would just like to see more details down the road, or a dedicated scorecast for every game."
• "This sportsbook has been becoming the best and I think overtaking some of the other leaders. They offer promos and bonus bets better than competitors. I think one of the best features is to disable the casino within the application itself."

• "since breaking ties with ESPN this sportsbook has dived in quality. Came back after a couple months to see how it is and spent an hour on live chat with an agent to get nowhere and get the issue i brought up just repeated to me."
• "Since last year this app has improved leaps and bounds. Far better that FanDuel. Highly recommend this over any other sportsbook."
• "love this app. best odds, best scoreboard. better than the rest for sure. always something to bet and have fun on"
• "generally good lines and easy to use."
• "very good promotions and payoffs quick and easy."

• "it’s a pretty minimalist book. I’ve used it quite a bit. I don’t mind how basic it is. Sometimes it’s lines are a little softer than others too."
• "Their app is superior to any other Sportsbook app in terms of smoothness/design/ease of use. It’s not the sexiest in terms of betting options beyond the basics. They do have occasional bet $1 get a $10 free bet promos. Good too keep a few bucks in there after the initial new customer promo."

• "Having used this app for nearly a year, I've encountered no issues with bonus flexibility, excellent pre-made parlays, and smooth withdrawals, making it a standout choice compared to others."
• "CJ and Louis in tech support were so kind and helpful when I had an issue with my app. Made my day with how nice they were. Will definitely use this app [from] now on because of them"
• "#2 Sports App for Betting - Great premade picks!! Only downside is not being able to edit more"

• "Best betting sports app available!!!! Bets are easy to place, results are easy to see, and money is easy to deposit or withdraw. 5 stars, easy!" 
• "Has potential to be the best of them all. Just need to work on the bugs in the system. Doesn't let me select bets a lot of times because it freezes up."
• "Great potential, but... the app UI continues to glitch out and make it unusable until you delete the app data in your app settings. Customer service is great and helped me fix the issue. This fix is only temporary, though. Then, you have to log back into the app like it is your first time. It gets quite annoying. Everything else is great. Good alt lines and odds. Love the early payout feature and their promo boosts they offer. Please fix your app code to stop breaking the UI" 

• "The best app by far is Bet365. Amazing boosts, instant payout, super customer service." 
• "Bet365 always stands the test of time - Ole faithful, gotta love it"
• "I make the most money on bet365 for some reason, and they typically have the best super boost out of any of the books. I also like their promos for teams getting leads, and how they’ll cash those out as wins."
• "I've been using Bet365 for a while, and they've been pretty great. They tick off all your boxes and then some. Their sportsbook is super varied, got everything from football to curling. They do offer a decent signup bonus as well." 
• "Tons of options as far as lines go. Decent promos. Lots of alt lines on player props. Usually pretty good value on their lines. (Aug. 2024)
• "BET365 has decent odds and better daily promos and occasional boost than DK and FD" 
• "great user interface and a lot of market options"
• "has the best cashout and their interface just works well [to be honest]. Very minimal" 
• "I believe they have the smoothest interface on their app. They have the most streams of soccer matches. I think it's incredibly easy to make bets and parlays in particular to build. And it's the least buggy of any of the sports books that I've used. Not the best with promotions however they do have some every now and then but overall I think the odds and simply how smooth the app is are extremely important" 
• "I get my payout instantly to my account. No waiting. The minute I hit that withdrawal button, it's in my account."
• "Just got bet365 and like it so far. Regular profit boosts and early win payouts on moneylines" 
• "Love bet 365. Their promos are excellent, their app always works, and they have every niche market I could want" 
• "Live cash out, same game parlays that work pretty damn flawlessly, live streams of sports, easy to use UI. It honestly feels like a native apple app to be honest. Never won a single issue with settlement or anything fishy happening. Can deposit on Apple Pay. accepts MasterCard." 
• "Started using Bet365 recently and it’s way better than the book I used to use. Great promos on there as well." 

• "Made a deposit and won. It's a good app i like that layout but waiting 3-5 business days for a withdrawal is crazy all the other apps my money there within 5 mins! I think that was my last time betting on this app. I refused to wait that long for a deposit. I'll stick with the other apps" 
• "Love this app - This is one of the best ones I've found!" 

• "This app isn't actually too bad except the withdraws take [way too] long!!!" 
• "One of the best apps and they have some of the best online chats agents I have ever talked to" 

• "I use [them] all but I’ve gravitated to BetRivers the most. After I got to level 7 (loyalty rewards) things changed. BetRivers CONSTANTLY has the best odds available (especially alternates). Very different reward system (you lose with inactivity) but with the best lines 60-70% of the time" 
• "I stick to betrivers for the odds and DK for all the boosts and promos." 
• "BetRivers isn't the app I spend the most time on, but on certain sports and events there are some great opportunities and I like Parlay Flexibility, so I keep it."
• "Bet rivers has the best odds sometimes but betmgm always beats it once profit boost tokens are factored in. I do keep 20$ in my Bet rivers account so I can watch all the live stream games for free."

• "Would like real time updates when parts of parlay bets are completed" 
• "Great app but needs more bonus bets and profit boosts" 

• "Five stars all the way! BetMGM app offers an incredibly user-friendly experience with a wide range of betting options. Smooth navigation, quick transactions, and reliable customer support make it my go-to choice for sports betting and online gaming. Highly recommended!" 
• "Betting isn't the issue. It's checking my closed bets. 3 options are Live, Open and Closed. It automatically opens on OPEN, you can HARDLY get it to switch to CLOSED BETS. I typically know if I won/lost since I watch the games but still like to check."
• "Great app but it does lag sometimes"

• "browser performs better [in my opinion]" 
• "MGM can never remember my device, loads slowly, has difficulty getting my location and using some of their deposit methods just outright don’t work. Even with all the issues, MGM has gotten the most bets from me because they’ve given me the best odds for what I’m wanting to bet on."
• "BetMGM for me for whatever reason they always have the best lines. App can be glitchy tho." 
• "I already had a rewards card, and the MGM [credit card]. I just keep using them and building up my rewards." 
• "Bet mgm is the only one that consistently gives me promos that aren’t all for parlays. Their app is clunky at times, and sometimes you have to even re install but I feel they’re the best for no nonsense bets like money lines and simple props. I feel like they don’t have as many player props as DraftKings or FanDuel, though." 
• "I hadn't used betMGM for like a year and when I went back to it they've consistently given me solid promos." 
• "one positive about them is they often have better odds than DK/FD"
• "I do like that MGM does boosts and bet [and] gets without forcing parlays down your throat" 
• "Everyday is a new promo and they’re honestly fair deals. A lot of their boosts are reasonable too. I also find there’s better values for parlays there."
• "I use BetMGM because that's what I started with and it's worked well enough that I never felt the need to switch"
