    Just to let you all know Paddypower have released an Android App which is actually half decent, one or two things to be fixed, i.e. lacking in some markets but it's not a bad effort and just goes to show how Android is catching iOS.

    Here's the QR code, just use barcode scanner and it will open it on your phone.

    What's annoying me so far are golf markets, I can get the Portugal Open outright betting on my PC but not on the mobile markets, they should offer the same markets on the mobile site as they do on the web based site. Freaking annoying!

    Is this app still available? I can't find it in the marketplace


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,982 ✭✭✭✭GBX


    You can download it straight from www.paddypower.com

    They have a page that sends you to a link that searches the market but nothing comes up in the search results.

    Then, they have a website that's optimized for android but is not an android app.

    the app has been taken down due to technical problems. PaddyPower are working on the problem.

    This is probably gone because Google changed the terms for the market a while back to stop real money betting applications being released. Full tilt poker had to remove their app and release a play money only one. Had to go onto their site to get plug in for the app to play real money. Don't know how paddy will get around this one

    :rolleyes: Your welcome. You said it wasnt on the market so I gave an option. The option I gave was how I got the app. Not through the market.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,338 ✭✭✭aphex™


    The thing is I started out by going to paddypower.com and they directed me to the market.

    But I can't find any reference to an apk download from their website. Not at all.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 109 ✭✭ShakyJ


    U will have to get the apk from someone. It's no longer in the market. Maybe contact paddy and ask them to send u the apk. The app is just a link to this url: http://android.paddypower.mobi/ u could just bookmark it.

    won't work on desire hd according to that link.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 bmoloney


    strange, my brother has a Desire HD and it works fine for him. Is it that it won't even install or it won't launch once installed?

    to be honest though, when you visit PP.com on the internet it should redirect to the android web app, which is the exact same as the downloaded version, save valuable flash drive space!!

    Wont even try install just says won't work with phone.


    Sorry, Paddy Power does not support your phone. We're constantly adding new phones, so please come back later!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4 bmoloney


    not sure how you're trying to download it but the download won't work from the PC, try to visit the getjar link on your mobile (in the default browser) and see if it installs properly then.

    ..if not, either use the web app or contact customer service at paddy power and they'll help!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 10,898 ✭✭✭✭seanybiker


    I used the mobile to do it. It's grand I wouldn't use it anyways. Only wanted it cos I'm not supposed to have it haha.

    this option is strangely enough not available for samsung galaxy tab.

    I have been trying the new ice cream sandwich browser using the google emulator. I tried the paddy power website.

    once you ensure the desktop version box is ticked you should get the full version. if however you have ticked the option after you enter the mobile site you will have to enter the address again.
