The Wanted Win App and Browser Play
Many players look for a Wanted Win App before signing up. Right now there is no confirmed native app in the Apple App Store or Google Play. Wanted Win is designed to run in your mobile browser instead, on both iPhone and Android, with nothing to download or install.
The mobile site is the full casino. You sign in with the same email and password as on a computer, you see the same AUD balance, and the lobby holds the same 6,000+ games. The Wild West design is reworked for a touch screen, with a menu that slides out from an icon, larger buttons and games that open in full screen.
Playing in the browser has a few advantages over a downloaded app. It takes no storage space apart from the browser cache. New games and site updates appear as soon as we release them, with no app update to install. And it works on a wide range of phones, including older models that might not run a new app.
For one-tap access you can add a shortcut to your home screen. The steps for iPhone and Android are below. Once the icon is set up, opening Wanted Win feels much like opening an app.
Be careful with unofficial downloads
Because no native app is confirmed, treat any Wanted Win download offered on another website or sent in a message with suspicion. Android APK files from unknown sources are a common way to spread malware and steal login details. The browser version on the official site is the safe way to play on your phone.
Setting Up Wanted Win on iPhone and iPad
Safari is the default browser on iPhone and iPad and works well with Wanted Win. Chrome, Firefox and Edge for iOS work too. Here is how to add a home screen icon in Safari:
- Open Safari and go to the Wanted Win site.
- Sign in to your account, or register if you are new.
- Tap the share button, the square with an arrow pointing upwards.
- Scroll the menu and tap add to home screen.
- Change the name if you like, then tap add.
- Tap the new icon on your home screen to open Wanted Win.
On many iOS versions the shortcut opens the site without the Safari address bar, which leaves more room for the game. Your login session and settings carry over from Safari.
The larger screen of an iPad shows more of the lobby at once and makes live tables easier to follow. Most pokies support both portrait and landscape. If a game looks squeezed, rotate the device or reload the page.
Safari is updated along with iOS, so keeping your iPhone updated also keeps your browser current. Older iOS versions can have trouble with newer games and with some payment pages.
Setting Up Wanted Win on Android
On Android, Wanted Win runs in Chrome, Samsung Internet, Firefox, Edge and other current browsers. To add a home screen shortcut in Chrome:
- Open Chrome and visit the Wanted Win site.
- Sign in, or create an account.
- Tap the three dots in the top right corner.
- Choose add to home screen. Some phones show it as install.
- Confirm the name of the shortcut.
- Open Wanted Win from the new icon on your home screen.
Samsung Internet and Firefox offer a similar option in their menus. Whatever browser you pick, the shortcut opens the same site, and you stay signed in if your session is still active.
Keep your browser updated through the Play Store. Updates bring speed improvements and security fixes, and some newer pokies rely on recent browser features.
Browser play does not need any special permissions on Android. The site will not ask for your contacts, photos or files, apart from the camera or gallery when you choose to upload verification documents. If a page asks you to install a file or turn off security settings, close it, because that request does not come from us.
What You Can Do on Mobile
The mobile site covers everything you can do on desktop. You can browse the full lobby, search for games, use filters by provider or feature, save favourites and see your recently played list. The account area shows your balance, bonus progress, transaction history and messages.
Pokies are the most played games on phones, and nearly all modern titles are built for touch screens. The spin button, bet settings and autoplay controls sit within easy reach. Many games change their layout when you rotate the phone. The Wanted Win pokies page explains the main game types and how to choose one.
Live dealer tables stream in full screen with the betting panel over the video. Blackjack, roulette, baccarat and game shows all run on mobile. Chat with the dealer works on tables that support it.
Promotions are fully available on your phone. You can read the terms, claim each stage of the welcome package in the cashier and play your free spins. The details of the current package are on the Wanted Win bonus page, and the terms are the same on every device.
Responsible gambling tools are in the account menu as well. Deposit limits, breaks and self-exclusion set on your phone apply to your whole account straight away.
Because there is no native app, the site does not send push notifications to your phone. Messages about promotions, verification and withdrawals appear in your account inbox and by email. You can manage marketing emails in your settings.
Switching between phone and computer
Your account lives on our servers, so you can move between devices freely. Start a pokie session on your laptop, then pick up on your phone later: your balance, favourites, bonus progress and game history are all there. If you leave a game in the middle of a bonus round on one device, it usually resumes from the same point when you open it again on another.
Settings such as deposit limits and marketing preferences are also shared. Change them once and they apply everywhere. The only thing that does not carry over is the browser itself, so on a new phone you will need to sign in again and add the home screen icon once more.
Payments on Mobile
The mobile cashier offers the same options as the desktop version. Your account runs in AUD, and crypto is accepted alongside the other payment methods available in your region. The cashier lists each method with its minimum, maximum, any fee and the expected processing time.
To deposit, open the cashier from the menu, pick a method, enter the amount and confirm. Some methods hand you over to another app, such as your banking app, to approve the payment. Once you confirm there, return to the browser and the funds appear in your balance.
Crypto on a phone is often quick, especially if your wallet app is on the same device. Copy the deposit address from the cashier or scan the QR code, then send from your wallet. Check that the coin and network match exactly what the cashier shows, because crypto sent to the wrong address or network cannot be recovered.
Withdrawals work the same way on every device. Request a payout in the cashier, and our payments team reviews it before it is sent. Processing times and any limits are listed in the cashier and the payment terms. A verified account is the best way to avoid delays.
Your phone camera makes verification easy. Take photos of your ID and proof of address on a flat surface in good light, then upload them from the account area. Make sure all four corners are visible and the text is sharp.
Avoid using the flash, which often causes glare on plastic cards, and switch off any camera filters. If the check needs a selfie with your ID, hold the document beside your face so both are clear in the same photo. You will get a message in your account once the documents have been reviewed.
Performance Tips
Most mobile problems come from a weak connection or from too many apps running at once. Before a longer session, close apps and browser tabs you are not using. This frees memory and helps games run smoothly.
Use Wi-Fi for live dealer games where possible. Video streams need a steady connection and use far more data than pokies. On mobile data, a strong 4G or 5G signal is enough, but keep an eye on your data allowance.
If a game freezes, avoid tapping repeatedly. Wait a few seconds and reload the page. Rounds are recorded on the game server, so a spin in progress when the connection dropped is usually completed, and the result appears in your game history.
Clearing your browser cache from time to time fixes many display issues, such as a lobby that will not finish loading. You will need to sign in again afterwards. Low power mode can slow down graphics-heavy pokies, so switch it off if a game runs poorly.
Long sessions with live video drain the battery quickly. Lower the screen brightness or keep a charger nearby.
Screen size changes how some games feel. On a small phone, pokies with many reels and tiny symbols can be hard to read in portrait mode, so turn the phone sideways. For live tables, landscape gives a bigger view of the dealer and the betting panel at the same time.
Quick fixes
If the site does not load at all, test your connection by opening another website. If other sites work, close the browser fully and reopen it. If a game opens with a black screen, give it time, because some newer pokies download a lot of graphics on the first start. Private browsing windows can block cookies and game files, so use a normal window. If your home screen icon stops working after a browser update, remove it and add it again from the site.
Mobile Security
Your phone gives access to your Wanted Win account, so protect it with a screen lock using a PIN, fingerprint or face recognition. If you store your password in the phone’s password manager, that screen lock is what keeps other people out.
Every page of Wanted Win loads over HTTPS, so data between your phone and our servers is encrypted. Before signing in, check for the padlock and make sure the web address is correct. Phishing pages can look almost identical to a real casino.
Try not to sign in on public Wi-Fi in cafes, hotels or airports. If you have to, sign out when you finish. Do not share your login with anyone, and remember that our support team will never ask for your password.
If your phone is lost or stolen, change your Wanted Win password from another device as soon as you can and contact support. The team can check recent activity and help secure your account. Our login page has more detail on password recovery and account protection.
