BitStarz doesn't have a native app. It doesn't need one. The PWA installs to your home screen and performs within striking distance of native apps. The crypto-first approach actually helps mobile UX — no complex Interac deposit flows, just scan a QR code from your wallet app. Game thumbnails are well-sized, search works properly, and the site doesn't assault you with pop-up banners on mobile.

The mobile edge: BitStarz's lighter page weight (3.1 MB) and cleaner code means it performs best on budget devices and cellular connections. If you're gambling on a $200 CAD phone over LTE, BitStarz is measurably the best experience.

Weaknesses: No native app means no push notifications (PWA notifications are inconsistent on iOS). Live casino lobby navigation could be better organised on small screens.

Solid across the board. The PWA is well-built, game filtering works on mobile, and the 8,800-game library stays organised through provider-based and category-based navigation that actually functions on small screens. Interac deposits work cleanly in the mobile flow.

The mobile edge: Good balance of large library and mobile performance. The navigation system handles 8,800 games better than competitors with fewer titles.

Weaknesses: Page weight (4.2 MB) and LCP (3.4s) are acceptable but not class-leading. The site loads noticeably more tracking scripts than BitStarz, which adds weight without user benefit. On budget devices, this translates to an extra second of load time. Promotional banners sometimes overlap game content on smaller screens (iPhone SE).

The split personality casino. Jackpot City is the only casino on this list with native apps on both stores. The apps are genuinely good — Face ID login, smooth navigation, push notifications for promotions, and optimised game loading. The iOS app in particular is polished, which explains the 4.7★ rating. But the mobile browser version is mediocre. Page weight of 5.8 MB is heavy, LCP of 4.1 seconds is slow, and the CLS of 0.18 means visible layout shift while the page loads.

The mobile edge: If you're using the app, Jackpot City is a B+ experience. The native app advantages (Face ID, push notifications, optimised loading) are real and meaningful.

Weaknesses: If you're stuck in the browser, it's a B- experience. 2,800 total games is the smallest library on this list. The focus on Microgaming/Games Global means limited provider diversity. The native app has a slightly smaller game library than the browser version. No crypto payments.

Competent across all metrics without excelling at any. The PWA works well, game loading times are reasonable, and the Canadian-focused payment integration (Interac prominently featured) works smoothly on mobile. The game filter system is functional if unremarkable.

The mobile edge: The Canadian-focused design means Interac e-Transfer is front and centre in the mobile cashier, which matters for Canadian players.

Weaknesses: No native app. Touch targets in the provider filter menu are slightly undersized. Nothing that degrades the experience significantly, but nothing that elevates it either.

Mid-range on every metric. The crypto-friendly approach mirrors BitStarz but with less polish. PWA functions properly. Game availability at 85% is acceptable.

The mobile edge: Crypto + PWA combination works for players who want an alternative to BitStarz with different game selection.

Weaknesses: Withdrawal flow is slightly confusing on mobile with small text on the withdrawal confirmation screen. See our instant withdrawal guide for more details.

The 14,000-game library is the selling point, but it creates real mobile problems. The Lighthouse score of 48 puts it in the "poor" category. LCP of 5.2 seconds means you wait over 5 seconds for the main content on the lobby. The game grid is crowded (touch targets at 42px, below the 48px minimum). And 2,800 games simply don't work on mobile — the second-highest absolute gap on our list.

The mobile edge: Even after losing 2,800 games, 11,200 mobile titles is still a large library. If game variety is your top priority and you have a decent phone, it works.

Weaknesses: Heavy page weight (6.4 MB). High CLS (0.22) — content shifts while loading. The $20,000 CAD welcome bonus promotion pop-ups aggressively overlap game content on mobile.

As a newer casino, the mobile site feels like a standard white-label template with minimal mobile-specific optimisation. It works, but competing against sites that have invested in mobile UX (BitStarz, MafiaCasino), the gaps show. The provider filter menu has tight touch targets (44px) and the promotional carousel has noticeable layout shift.

The mobile edge: Adequate for a new casino. The PWA works, game loading is acceptable.

Weaknesses: Brand new = almost no App Store presence, no native app, limited mobile-specific features. The PWA exists but feels like an afterthought rather than a priority.

SlotsVader has the biggest game library (15,000) and loses the most on mobile (3,500 games). The 77% availability rate is the second-worst tested. The sheer volume of game assets creates a heavy, slow mobile experience — 6.8 MB page weight, 5.6-second LCP, and significant CLS (0.25) as game thumbnails load in waves.

The mobile edge: 11,500 mobile games is still the largest mobile library tested. If raw numbers matter most, SlotsVader wins by volume.

Weaknesses: The game grid on mobile is essentially unusable without search. Scrolling through 11,500 games on a phone is not a feature — it's a UX failure. Filtering is the only viable navigation method, and SlotsVader's filters are slow to respond on mobile.

No PWA means no "Add to Home Screen" app-like experience. You're stuck in the browser with the address bar eating screen space. Touch targets at 38px are below minimum guidelines — buttons are too small and too close together, causing misclicks especially in the cashier section. The 6.1-second LCP and 7.2 MB page weight indicate minimal mobile optimisation.

Weaknesses: The mobile experience feels like a desktop site forcibly squeezed into a phone screen rather than a mobile-first design. No PWA, undersized touch targets, slow loading.

The worst mobile experience on our list by every measurable metric. 7.3-second LCP means main content takes over 7 seconds to appear. CLS of 0.38 means severe layout shift — buttons and content move while you're trying to tap them. TBT of 1,100ms means the browser freezes for over a second after the page "loads." On a budget Android phone over 4G, the total load time exceeds 10 seconds.

Weaknesses: No PWA means browser-only access. Touch targets are broken — text overlaps on smaller screens, and the deposit flow requires pinch-to-zoom on iPhone SE. This isn't a mobile casino; it's a desktop site being painfully viewed on a phone. SGCasino also scored lowest on every other guide we've published: worst review ratings, slowest withdrawals, weakest RTP transparency.
