List of Gambling and Betting Apps
Sportsbooks get the headlines, but gambling on phones now spans fantasy pick'em, prediction markets, "win real cash" games and free slots that sell coins. This list covers all of them, with the IDs to block them on managed iPhones, iPads and Android devices.
What are gambling apps? Seven types

List of gambling apps with bundle IDs
These are well-known examples by type. The full Gambling category in our blocklists is much longer and updated monthly, which matters here because operators publish separate apps per state and country.

Social casino or real money: does it matter for blocking?
Parents and teachers often ask whether free slots count. They do not pay out cash, yet they teach the same habits and sell coins with real money. Here is the difference side by side.
Real-money gambling apps
Social casino apps
Most schools block both. Ordinary games with loot boxes are a separate decision, covered in our guide to blocking games on school devices.
App Store gambling advisories, explained
Every app in our database carries the content advisories listed for it in the App Store. Four of them matter for a gambling policy, and they are useful even for apps that are not in the Gambling category.
| Advisory | What it signals | Examples above | Suggested use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Gambling | Real-money wagering or cash prizes inside the app | Sportsbooks, cash prize games, lotteries | Always block on student and shared devices |
| Simulated Gambling | Casino-style play without cash payouts, listed as frequent or as infrequent | Slotomania, Zynga Poker, Coin Master | Block where the frequent form is listed; review the rest |
| Loot Boxes | Paid random rewards, a common feature of mobile games | Huuuge Casino, House of Fun | Review with your games policy |
| Contests | Competitions, sometimes with entry fees and prizes | Most sportsbooks and fantasy apps | Check together with the Gambling advisory |
Advisories come from the developer's own age rating answers, so a few apps list none even when they clearly involve betting. That is why the category, not the advisory alone, drives our Gambling blocklist.
How gambling apps reach students
Students rarely search the App Store for a sportsbook. The apps find them through other channels, which is worth knowing when you explain the block to parents.
Referral codes
Friends share sign-up links with bonus credits, often in group chats.
Sports and streams
Betting promotions appear around live games, highlights and creator streams.
Ads in free games
"Win real cash" games advertise inside ordinary mobile games that students already play.
Shared family accounts
An adult's app or account on a shared device is one tap away for a younger user.
How to block gambling apps on iPhone
The answer depends on who owns the phone. A managed device follows your MDM. A personal iPhone uses Screen Time, which can be surprisingly effective here because every gambling app in our tables is rated 17+.
School or company iPhone
- Confirm the device is supervised.
- Import the Gambling category bundle ID list into your MDM's restricted apps setting.
- Add an age cap below 17+ on student devices to catch new apps rated the same way.
- Restrict in-app purchases if coin packs are a concern.
- Update the list each month as new state and country apps appear.
Personal iPhone
- Open Settings and tap Screen Time.
- Turn on Content and Privacy Restrictions.
- In the App Store and media settings, set the app age limit below 17+. Menu names vary by iOS version.
- Set a Screen Time passcode that the phone's user does not know.
- Block in-app purchases in the same area.
On iPad the steps are the same. MDM walkthroughs: Intune, Jamf and Google Admin for Android and Chromebooks. Profile-based blocking is explained in blocking apps with a .mobileconfig.
Block gambling sites on iPhone, and why IP blocks fall short
Gambling apps and gambling websites are blocked in different places. People searching for "real money gambling apps IP block" usually hope a network rule will do both. It will not.
Network or IP block
Works only on your Wi-Fi. Phones on mobile data or home Wi-Fi bypass it, and services move between addresses.
Website filter
Stops gambling sites in the browser. On a personal iPhone, Screen Time can limit adult websites and keep a never-allow list of specific sites.
Device app block
Stops the app opening on any network, anywhere. This is the control that travels with the device.
Real-money apps check the user's location because licences are granted per state or country. Students sometimes try a VPN to pass that check, so pair the gambling list with our VPN and proxy apps list.
Apps that block gambling apps
"Bet blocker" searches come from two groups: individuals who want help stopping, and organizations that manage devices. They need different tools.
Self-exclusion
National and operator self-exclusion schemes stop an account from betting for a chosen period.
For individualsBank card blocks
Many banks let customers block gambling payments from their banking app. Check your own bank's app.
For individualsGambling block apps
Personal apps that block gambling sites and apps on one device, often with a cooling-off lock.
For individualsYour MDM
The tool already managing your devices. Give it a current Gambling list and it blocks every app on every device in scope.
For organizationsIf gambling is causing harm for you or someone you know, contact a local support service or helpline. A device block helps, and it works better alongside that support.
Gambling apps on work phones
Businesses block gambling apps for reasons beyond distraction. These are the common ones; your HR and compliance teams may add more.
| Setting | Why block | What to include |
|---|---|---|
| Finance and trading | Conduct rules and conflicts of interest around betting and event contracts | Sportsbooks, prediction markets, fantasy |
| Field and driving staff | Safety and time on shift | All gambling, plus social casino |
| Retail and hospitality | Shared devices used by many staff, often young | All gambling types and 17+ apps |
| Healthcare and care homes | Devices near vulnerable people | All gambling types |
| Personal phones (BYOD) | You control only managed apps | Policy rules; see our BYOD app policy guide |
A gambling block policy in five lines
- Scope: all managed phones and tablets, including shared and loan devices.
- Blocked: every app in the Gambling category, plus apps with the Gambling advisory.
- Also blocked on student devices: social casino apps and anything rated 17+.
- Exceptions: none for students; named roles only for staff, approved in writing.
- Review: the list refreshes monthly; IT spot checks new apps each term.
For schools, gambling usually sits with dating, adult and 17+ apps in a single "always block" group. Our apps to block on school iPads page shows that grouping.
Gambling apps: questions and answers
What are some gambling apps?
Gambling apps include sportsbooks such as FanDuel, DraftKings, BetMGM and bet365, online casino and poker apps, fantasy and pick'em apps such as PrizePicks and Underdog, prediction markets such as Kalshi and Polymarket, cash prize game apps, social casino slots and official lottery apps.
Can you block gambling apps on iPhone?
Yes. On a managed iPhone your MDM blocks the gambling category by bundle ID. On a personal iPhone, an app age limit in Screen Time Content and Privacy Restrictions below 17+ hides the gambling apps in our tables, because all of them are rated 17+ in the App Store.
Are social casino apps gambling?
Social casino apps use virtual coins and do not pay out cash, but they simulate slots and poker and sell coin packs. The App Store marks them with a Simulated Gambling advisory, and many schools and parents block them alongside real-money apps.
Does blocking gambling sites by IP address work?
Only on your own network. Phones on mobile data or another Wi-Fi bypass network blocks entirely, and gambling services change addresses. A device level app block travels with the device on every network.
What apps block gambling apps?
For individuals there are self-exclusion schemes, gambling blocking apps and bank card gambling blocks. For organizations, the MDM that already manages the devices is the blocker; it just needs a current list of gambling bundle IDs and package names.
Why do some gambling apps have several bundle IDs?
Operators often publish a separate app for each market. In the tables above, bet365 appears with an international app and a US state app, each with its own bundle ID. Blocking the brand name once is not enough; every ID needs to be on the list.
Are prediction market apps treated as gambling?
Prediction market apps let users buy contracts on sports results and news events. Our data places them in the Gambling category, and most schools and many employers block them alongside sportsbooks.
Block every gambling app on your devices
The Gambling category as iOS bundle IDs, Android packages, CSV and MDM import files, with new state and country apps added each month.
