APP TEARDOWNS
Every gambling app in Canada, taken apart
One question runs this whole board: how many taps between a lobby and money back in your bank.
The board, in score order
The button on each row pays Loon Picks a commission if you open an account. The order is the score, computed from the numbers printed on the row beside it.

Mobile site only. The tap count is the browser doing the same job, and a browser tab forgets you when the session drops.

What a teardown contains
The package, in megabytes, and what it becomes once it has unpacked. Cold start, from icon tap to a lobby that accepts input. Crashes across forty sessions on the same two handsets, an iPhone 13 and a Pixel that is four years old.
Then the number this site exists for: taps from the lobby to a submitted withdrawal, and how many of those screens are carrying information rather than asking you again.
Every figure is computed the same way for every operator. There is no pass mark anywhere on this board and nothing here grades a company against a promise it made, because that is not a comparison we can stand up.
Why eighteen of them have no page full of numbers
Eighteen of the forty nine ship nothing you can install. Their page says so and then costs out the browser flow instead, because "does this one even have an app" is a question people actually arrive with.
A web wrapper counts as an app for our purposes only if it appears in a store listing and survives a reboot. A bookmark with an icon does not, however much the marketing calls it one.
The cuts
The board is one list and the cuts below are windows onto it: the best overall, same-hour payouts, iPhone and Android, sportsbooks, real money, free to install, newest and mobile casinos.
Nothing is re-ranked between them. Filtering changes which rows you see, not what any row says.
Questions people actually ask
Which sports betting apps are available in Canada?
Ontario has a licensed private market and most of the recognisable books are in it. Everywhere else the provincial operation runs the regulated sports product and the private books serve players from offshore licences.
The sportsbook cut of this board is at sportsbook apps, with the same install size, cold start and cashout figures as everything else here.
How do you decide the order on this board?
A score built out of what a phone does, not out of what a company says. Install size, cold start, crash count, taps to a submitted withdrawal, how long money takes to land, and what the cashier puts in the way.
Nothing on this board is graded against an operator's own marketing and there is no pass mark. The weights are all published on how we rate.
