888poker is currently the third biggest poker operator in the world and is looking to make quite a few changes to reclaim its position from partypoker who is now ranked as the second biggest poker operator in the world.
New 888poker App Available
The game of online poker has changed tremendously in the last few years as a lot of poker players have taken to mobile gaming. This is why you see all of the top poker operators in the world having a dedicated mobile poker app. 888poker came out with a soft launch in August 2020 promising a new and improved mobile poker app.
888poker has now officially rolled out its latest poker app which is available for both Apple and Android users and can be downloaded for free. If you already have the 888poker app on your smartphone or tablet, you can upgrade to the latest version. If you are looking for a great mobile poker app, you should try out the new 888poker app and see if it meets your expectations.
Here are some of the new updates to the 888poker app.
Multi Table Poker
We know that online poker players like playing at a number of tables and hence have multiple screens opened at the same time. This is very difficult to do when you play on a mobile poker app because of the lack of screen size. Well 888poker has found a workaround to a certain extent.
The new poker app will allow you to play a multi tables but to a limited extent. Players will be able to play at four poker tables at max. Players will have the option to go through the list of tables on offer by swiping from left to right. The designers have made the app super friendly which makes it easy for you to access all of the key info you need from any screen in the app.
You can access your poker bonuses, poker promotions and check your account balance in a matter of seconds.
Customization Features
One of the biggest updates with the new poker app is that players will have the option to make a number of customizations. To do this, you will have to spend a few minutes in the settings menu to see all of the new additions that the designers have made with the new upgrade.
You can completely change the way your mobile poker room looks. Players will have the option to choose from 4 color decks, use the auto rebuy and add on features, set the autofocus on tables that you are looking to play at and select a number of cool emojis. The live chat feature used to be an issue as a lot of players spent way too much time on chat and did not respond as fast as they should at the tables. The designers removed the live chat feature from the new mobile app which will be good news to most players but some may be upset.
Do note that the live chat feature is still available for online play but when it comes to the mobile app, only emojis are allowed.
One Hand Play Possible
A lot of top online poker rooms have adopted the vertical poker approach and 888poker decided to follow suit with its mobile poker app. Players can now choose portrait mode which will allow them to play poker with one hand. It might take some time getting used to but the designers have done a good job with this feature.
You will be able to play all of your favorite poker variants including SNGs, cash games, SNAP poker and poker tournaments in portrait mode.
The poker app also has BLAST sit n go games on offer which is one of the most popular games at 888poker.
Other Cool Features
There are a number of cool features with this new app. We found the throwables to be fun as you get to sling egg, cake and tomatoes to name a few and let someone have it. The new app will also let you access the 888casino and all the other 888products on offer.
