My laptop is currently down, waiting for my new laptop to arrive. I was wondering is the pokerstars mobile app good? I heard some negative reviews about the mobile app. If you played on mobile/iPhone what’s your experience with it?

according to if there is only one tournament or it suits it perfectly simple and clean i turn there is more competition I have more service providers so if you start competing at the same time gg poker and pokerstarson is not really good

I use the PS app quite often. It's solid. There are a few annoyances, but if you're playing one or two tables it does the trick quite well.

As for the game itself in the mobile application, the game is fine. However, you cannot add notes to players, checking who is playing in the tournament (no option to check the players list). You can play a maximum of 5 tournaments on the mobile app. Sometimes I play on the phone myself, there is a big difference but the game is ok.

I prefer playing on phone because i can go to toilet, at the kitchen to bed and playing poker

It is ok if you play just one table, app is not bad only there is no home games option.

The mobile application is good for those cases that you cannot or do not have access to the computer, for example when you go on vacation, in the waiting room of a medical office. It gets a bit complicated when you are looking for a specific type of tournament you do not have all the information you need if it is convenient to register or not

Sometimes I play the mobile version, so far I have no problems.

PS mobile is a great app. The only difficulty is the screen where you can only see one table at time (at least for me), but you could play any tournament anywhere. Of course without huds.

I don't play on the phone I like a computer

I like to play on the cell phone. very comfortable. you can move around. The only obstacle is that you are answering the phone.

The PokerStars mobile app does not offer as many statistics as computers do. With the mobile application you cannot see the list of players, something that is of great importance

Personally I'm not a fan of it, its too fiddly, however the actual app itself is quite smooth and does the job, if you have a tablet that would be miles better!

I downloaded the application on my phone ... and I'm honest I couldn't get used to playing poker from my phone ... I don't feel comfortable ... I tried it a couple of times and definitely ... I prefer not to play ... or hope that I can play from my laptop .... even so I think the application is friendly ... but it's not my thing ...!

Sometimes I play on the phone, but it gets a little slow.

I like the mobile version of BetOnline especially the .50/1.00 BBJ cash tables. The casino runs well too. I am a US resident so I can not provide feedback on Poker Stars mobile app but my advice is to try it out and find out for yourself.

The truth is only in tournaments in which I have an advantage I get to play with my cell phone because many other things arise but otherwise I always prefer to play on the pc because if I don't feel uncomfortable

I don't prefer playing poker on the phone. It has many disadvantages, its screen is small, you can missclick, you can't play many tables or take notes easily, you can't see the stack of other players - it's very important when you need to survive the bubble or holding it for a long time is bad. It is just fine if you play for fun.

I can only say about the mobile application on the operating system andorid pokerstars quite good I think that on the iphone the application is almost the same as on android. What are my impressions of the game on a mobile device? To be honest, I don't like playing on a mobile device, I prefer a desktop computer.

I wonder whether you actually do that ^ lol

Yes, a great app. Very convenient to play. There is no problem.

I tried some time ago, it worked quite slowly on my redmi4. and a lot of tables are generally nonsense

At first I was skeptical about playing on the phone, but that has changed. It's fun to play on the phone. Now I play mobile on Unibet and PokerMatch, but I recommend trying to play on purely mobile platforms such as Pokio or KKPoker

I only play poker on my mobile phone.
Much more convenient than on a computer.

My laptop is down also so playing on phone in the meantime so many disadvantages of playing on phone it is a disaster trying to multi table even two tables find it hard to concentrate and keep up with play also when the phone rings whilst playing it becomes a problem so just sticking to one table for now..

It is more convenient to play on the computer, since you can do more things at the same time, but the mobile application will also be suitable for certain circumstances or for a smaller number of tables.

It is not convenient to play several tables on the phone, and if you want to play several tournaments from different clients, it will not work.

Playing on the phone is a last resort of getting in shape until the laptop arrives. And about the application, like everything, you need to figure it out and get used to it.

I also sometimes use my phone to play poker on the PS and I can say that it is not very convenient. It is much easier to do this on a computer. It is not possible to mark players in the phone application, some functions do not work correctly .....

I find the play ok on the sites I've used my phone on. Finding the game you want to join may be a bit of a hassle also switching over to LTE from wifi if you go away from home while playing. I suggest turning you phone wifi off if leaving wifi shortly after the tourney starts

I play on the phone when I'm at work and I can say that I like it, it's harder if you play at several tables at the same time but if you only play at one table it's perfect.

I play on the smartphone only in extreme cases, if there are problems with the Internet connection. I prefer to play on my home pс.

I also love the PokerStars mobile app. I've only had good experiences with it, play with it myself on my iPad.

iOS mobile app is pretty good, Android is awful.

Android app is full of bugs, glitches and issues.. Games don't auto-start and disappear from 'my games' section of home screen meaning you can leave an MTT, and not be able to get back to it. Very awesome!

I honestly don't have the patience to list all the problems I've encountered on their Android app here but, believe me, there are many.

Thankfully, iOS app doesn't have those issues.

In summary, iOS Stars = good. Android Stars = not fit for purpose.

This is out of date information, we can play home games on mobile now.

I play on android. The app looks pretty good. But there are a number of disadvantages:

1. It is impossible to view the number of remaining participants in the tournament and their places.
2. Connection failure often occurs - because of which you can lose a decent amount of chips or even leave the tournament.
3. It is not convenient to play at different tables - you need to switch between them.

Oh, Thanks Joe I did not know about it, did not use mobile app for a month or more I think.

Only play on the app. No issues from me.

Maybe you'd try it then cause i have yet to see homegames being available in app this calendar year

E: Saw them actually now. Guess have to wait 'til sunday night to see whether can also play them or need to move to PC instead ...
