I cannot remember downloading a casino app on my phone. It's because I don't want to be easily tempted to gamble. If there's one on my phone, I'm more than sure I'd be drawn to it every time I have a vacant time. I'd rather avoid it than be sorry.

Just recently, a local gambling platform has partnered with an online fiat wallet. It was so accessible and convenient that I'm always enticed to make a bet whenever I'm doing nothing. I had a problem with it so much so that I'd be happy if my wallet has zero balance. The sad part, however, is that its balance is usually drained precisely because of that betting platform.
I agree, and also I believe that people who use app instead of surfing online are very prone to hacking so aside from hacking incident , I need to prevent myself from hacking too much it will make me gamble more just like you and other people say, having it more convinient leads me to more losses.

This is something interesting!
But I also believe this is relative, because each user has a specific preference for gambling, some prefer to use it on a mobile platform / smartphone app, I believe because of the practicality of using the platform on a mobile device, although I never have used.
I always used and still use this website to access and use online casinos.

If we want to compare a casino website with a casino application, which one is better, I think it will depend on each user because there is a convenience factor that each user must feel. Maybe some feel comfortable if they play on a casino website and vice versa and because of that, I think it will come back to the users.

But there are also casino websites that provide casino applications so that users who are accustomed to using casino websites can also use the casino application if they are outside their homes and can play gambling using their mobile phones. And to download a casino application, we should first make sure that the casino application is safe to use on our cellphones so that nothing happens later.

I think most casino websites are already optimized for usage, both on mobile and desktop so there'd be no need for apps? And they target an audience that uses both after all, or heck any sort of similar device so limiting it to apps may kill some of their userbase, not to mention that I reckon it'd be much more expensive to develop an app compared to a website (which btw, has already a LOT of variations so it's much easier to get an available general source code and move from there).

Upgrades
Websites are much simpler to improve than mobile applications. Even the proprietors of casinos can make adjustments in a matter of days, and those modifications will immediately become available to all of their customers. On the other hand, updating apps is a more involved process. It will take some time, and users will additionally need to download the upgrade on their own before the new function will be accessible on their app. You will see that websites are regularly updated, but app users frequently need to write to the developers to notify them about the platform’s faults. It’s said that websites are way easier to modify than applications.

I'd highlight this really. Also imagine if they made an app for the different devices out there (iOs, Android, desktop), pushing updates would mean 3 (or more) separate renditions and adjustments. Pretty easy to see which is more easy and cost efficient than the other.

There's no reason for me to download casino apps if I already can access their website without any problem, I don't feel comfortable to install many apps on my phone, so I wouldn't install it. Usually the might have a promotion if we're installed their apps, but not many casinos did this. Although casino apps is much faster than the website version, but I still prefer the websites version until now.

If you see then basically the apps are just the mobile version of the casinos which you can easily access through the browsers. They just made the app through online converter like website to app converter and hence gets their app done. They don’t hire a high budget app developer team to develop a specific version of their site. And they do this in order to fulfil gambler’s demand. So if we come to the question raised by OP, then it’s clear that both site and app are same. You can’t find a 1% difference between them. Yes but in case of apps, you just need to download that.

Over to you. Having read these points, which of these in your opinion is Better?

I believe that an online casino app can offer a much better user experience compared to the on-site casino version.
However, I see that currently the main problem with in-app casinos is compatibility with game providers... switching to the app can restrict players to games that are compatible with that platform, greatly limiting the range of options available.
However, I believe that this is a barrier that must be overcome soon.

Good comparison, and so my answer will be why not take advantage of both? For sure majority of us here have laptops/PC's at home and at the same time mobile phone. So if you like sitting in our desktop and using your big size screen to get a better feel specially if you are playing your favorite slots then I will go with this option.

But if I feel like laying down but still wanted to play my slot machine then casino apps will be best for you. The screen might be small though, but the sounds will still feel the same and so it will be tailor made for you only.

Applications have regular updates and that's a mandatory thing to do.

Users also need to allow those applications to access some parts of the system of our device.

It's good for me to just stay on their website as that is what I used to be.

I only installed gambling-related applications that are offline mode like offline poker games etc. But when there's a need for an account and real money involved, I will stay on the website.

Personally, I would choose a casino website rather than casino apps.

The difference between the two (2) may be slim, but a casino website is more convenient and easier to use. The problem with casino applications is that you are limiting yourself to a certain device in order to access it. Once you download the app on your mobile phone/laptop, then that current device is tied down to it. You cannot access nor play it without using the certain device you linked to it.

In contrast, casino websites offer more flexibility and usage due to its nature. Plus, I find websites more interactive than applications since you can always have access to it whenever and wherever you are.

In my case, I want to gamble on the website instead of thru applications. I don't like gambling related applications that requires some permission in order to run which is usual in Android device.

Maybe I will consider trying an application version if that gambling site is really the platform that I always used.
For the convenience one can prefer application, but for the above mentioned reason it is always the website that give the best experience. Whether it is smartphone, tab or a laptop, we can make use of it with ease. Granting permissions is a big problem with applications. Trusted platforms never move into applications, because it can't give the real experience one gets on spending through websites.

Depends on where a certain gambler do always plays neither on his pc or into this mobile.

When it comes to easy access even on transit or you are on something then mobile phone is the nearest thing you do own which you could gamble out with few clicks or taps
and speaking about good user experience in terms of GUI/GUX then you would definitely be looking for its app.

You could really be able to determine the differences when you do play on an app or total website of a certain platform.
Well, there are things which you might not able to find on an app which you can see on a website when it comes to functionalities or some part of interface.

So it's really up to the individual preference, personally I do like the play on my PC if and I have to choose.
Yes, it's up to what we think is good to gamble with. But also for those casinos that don't have their apps, I think it will lie on the cost of making one.
They probably haven't included it to their budgeting as it's costly. Although, a business like them needs to be flexible and they should cover almost all types of gamblers preference whether it's on their website or apps. Having that said, they should have anticipated that from the start.

Yeah, some of of are very traditional and uses casino websites because that's what they want. Screen is big and then the user experience is very different.

But there are many of us who are in the go and could be downloading the casino apps, which is faster.

So it's really up to the individual preference, personally I do like the play on my PC if and I have to choose.

Much better if all of them has, aside from websites and mirror links, they have responsive apps.

That's what's the usual casinos have today and it's very convenient so we can choose what we prefer to use. If we're on our mobile, we can use their apps because if it's from their websites.

The characters are too little and not everyone has bright and clear eyes to look at that even if we do zoom it to more than 100%.

It's better if the site have both option for this since mostly I gamble with my phone only, i prefer a site is a phone friendly and usually having an apps can work better. Top sites don't have any apps yet though maybe it requires another license to have this and that's why they choose to stay pure with the site only. Mind to share good site with the apps as well?

This will depend on the games supported or usually the game you are playing/betting. It's actually the user preference, if the controls are more accessible, wider screen, mostly the user experience over all.

I didn't mind using mobile phones betting before or even now, but i actually uses desktop more often.

Depends on user preferences, someone may like gambling on the go while other users may prefer to gamble on a PC. You can easily set up bonus hunts on multiple slots/providers with a splitting screen of Windows but the same is not true for mobile users. I personally go for PC gambling, more room to manage the stuff and the features are way better for enjoying the process itself.
