As technology continues to evolve and we become more reliant on it to take care of and centralise most of our daily tasks and activities, so too are bookmakers who are finding the world of online gambling a necessity to keep up with the public wants and desires. As such, there have been a prolific amount of new betting apps hitting the markets – some good, some not so awesome. Here’s a quick look at what we think are the best android betting apps that you need to have on your smartphone if you (like me) enjoy a dalliance or two with lady luck.

Live Score App 

An oldie but a goodie, LiveScore.com has been around since the ’90s offering up a no-frills service, getting straight down to business and delivering exactly what their punters want. And what’s that you ask? Well, if you’re at all into sports (and if we’re gamblers, we most definitely are) then you’ll want to keep on top of the latest scores from the hottest matches. LiveScore covers everything from football and tennis to basketball, ice hockey and cricket. With this app you can see the latest goal or score from your favourite sport and team instantly as well as the all-important match stats.

William Hill App 

William Hill is synonymous with betting so it’s no surprise that their app would make this list. After a recent update to an already stellar betting app William Hill put the icing on the cake by rewarding newbies with a free £25 welcome bet. Nice eh? As one of the largest sportsbooks around, William Hill claim that they manage more in-play sports than any of their competitors; couple this with a genuinely great user experience and you’ve got yourself a couple of million satisfied gamers.

Racing Post App 

If horse racing is more your bag then you could do worse than downloading the Racing Post app onto your homepage. Boasting the number one spot for all horse racing bets, click on and see up-to-the-minute news in all things racing, different racecards, tips and results. This app is entirely customizable so that users only see the information that’s interesting to them and when they’re ready to put down some cheddar, then the handy in-app direct bets are safe and secure.

Bet365 Betting App 

If you want all the bells, whistles, trumpets and ten piece marching bands then Bet365 is the app for you. It has a distinctively user-friendly and intuitive interface which makes keeping up with different markets, races, games and shows a total breeze. Their in-play betting is probably the app’s finest draw, as it allows users to watch live streams and in-play stats as their football, tennis, darts (you name it!) event unfolds!
