BoyleSports Mobile & App Review

BoyleSports Design & Mobile Usability Review

Review: Mobile Betting & App

BoyleSports does have an app and it's accessible on both Android and Apple. It pretty much mirrors what I've experienced on the mobile responsive website it can be a little laggy as there's a lot on display and that can be a little disruptive.

While the app and mobile layout are somewhat well organised, the sheer amount of content is what actually makes it a little difficult to navigate on such a small display. 

The mobile reviews on various app stores seemed to echo that sentiment with complaints of slow-loading content and touch points not responding instantly to users' interactions.

Personally with news sites like this, I would suggest sticking with your preferred mobile browser like Safari or Chrome, if your Wi-Fi is strong enough you should get as good a mobile experience as any other sportsbook.

Review: Design & Usability

The design and usability of the BoyleSports sportsbook are somewhat contentious. There's a lot happening, making it one of the most comprehensive and plentiful betting sites, in my opinion. However, this can lead to lags and glitches due to the slow loading of the vast amount of content.

It looks great – very modern and clean. There's just a lot to take in, so if you're new to the site, it might be considered a bit overwhelming.

They do try to organise content into distinct sections and segments. This makes it straightforward to navigate through the clearly defined betting categories and find what you need. Nonetheless, I believe they could reduce the initial volume of content presented to visitors.

It appears that BoyleSports understandably wants to showcase as much of their product as possible to punters who visit the site. I personally believe this could be pared back slightly.

BoyleSports' football section is pretty impressive. There's so much to choose from, but it's all very well organised into the type of format that suits a football betting fan. 

What I mean by that is, even with so much going on, everything's neat and tidy and the entry points into each section reflect the style of punter that sportsbooks attract. From those who want in-play, to coupons or those who go straight to today's games, it's all there.

Most bookies have an extensive range of betting markets and features. But what has impressed me about the BoyleSports product is the simple attention to detail in delivering a custom-built product that's different (it's not a copy template), but also very logical in its presentation.

As a coupon and Acca bettor, I'm pleased to see a section and structure specifically designed to cater to my style of punting, but while also allowing other punting styles to have their own sections as well. 

BoyleSports live betting offering is really strong. We mentioned earlier how well-organised the football section is. As you dive into the tabs, you can see the in-play section is given top billing in the "Highlights" section which showcases the best betting of the day, but also the best in play. 

I like how the in-play tab includes a sub-section dedicated to specific betting markets. So if you want to put an acca together on in-play games to be BTTS for example, there's a tab that organised those live fixtures. You can bet on next goal, goals over/under or just see all the top in-play fixtures and dig into each and see the available markets.

When you click into a live fixture you're met with a huge virtual graphic display which was properly slow. It felt like there was far too much going on, it actually took a while to load which is the very opposite of what in-play betting is supposed to be about. There however lots of available markets and they were once again really well laid out and easy to navigate. 

Cashout is pretty standard on BoyleSports, but in stark contrast to other betting sites, they have a section dedicated to the popular betting feature.

Whereas some other sportsbooks showcase the cashout as part of the bet slip set-up, BoyleSports cashout has its own area where you can see any cashout bets you have available but where you can read up on any FAQs you might have related to their cashout system.

The cashout FAQs section is simple, but really open and informative - a nice touch from Boylesports! 

If you're interested in free stuff, Boylesports is one of the few decent betting sites with free daily games on offer in the form of a fantasy sports 5 aside pick'em. Now the odds of you winning real cash are very low, but someone has to win, so in my view, games like this are worth a go just for fun. You're only risking your time if you keep it to a minimum and only play the one game on offer.

BoyleSports has a pretty cool Fantasy 5 free-to-play prediction game. Pick five players from five games. If they all score more than their fantasy points target, you win a prize. Its a nice to have that I've never got close to winning, but as free-to-play games go it's a fun fantasy game that has the potential of winning some cash - so why not!

How to play. Select 5 players in the live Fantasy5 round. Once all five players have been selected your team will be entered for the round. You are able to change your selections up until the first kick-off.
