Many online casinos will ask you to download a game client before you can start playing for the real money. A client is a specially developed piece of software with a convenient interface, which can be used in casino to play online without using the webpage. Even more so, some casinos don’t even offer browser play with real money, or they do, but only with virtual funds. So it is essential, almost a rule, for many casinos that a player should download a separate client for game play.
All casinos have very similar system requirements for their client installation, and these are the standard:
- Processor 1.6 GHz (Pentium 4)
- Minimum of 512 Mbs
- Screen resolution of 1024 x 768 or better
- Minimum of 1Gb hard drive space
- OS Windows Vista or better (some casinos also support Microsoft Windows XP SP2)
- Internet speed 512 Kb/s
- Flash Player 10.2 or better
System requirements for mobile play
Many online casinos also offer their customers a mobile version of the client, special software that works on mobiles phones. The system requirements for these first and foremost depend of the operation system of the mobile.
System requirements for Android phones:
- Processor ARMv7 with 550 MHz FPU minimum
- OS Android version 2.2, 2.3, 3.0, 3.1, 3.2, 4.0
- 256Mb RAM
- Android internet browser
- Adobe Flash / Adobe AIR 3 supported
As a rule, it is possible to download Android apps from the webpage of any casino or otherwise in Google Play (Android Market). You would be able to find out right away if your phone supports a specific mobile app.
Casino apps can be installed on almost all of modern devices – in addition to Android smartphones and tablets, same can be done for various mobile devices operating on Windows 7 Mobile, Blackberry OS and Mac OS Mobile (iPhone 3, 4, 5). Minimal system requirements are Internet access (Wi-Fi or 3G), Java support and Flash support.
