Solving Mobile Gaming Issues
As mobile gaming was making its way into the online gambling industry, casinos and software providers were hitting roadblocks. For some games, the screen was too small for players to enjoy the content. Mobile devices might also have lower bandwidth or the games needed further development to be able to operate successful via the device.
Over the past few years, these issues have been improved upon, allowing online casinos to offer mobile gaming in instant form via web browser or application. Android and iOS devices often have an application that can be downloaded to offer gamers the best in online casino game play. The apps provide the same great promotions, games and tournaments, allowing players to enjoy an online casino experience while on the go.
Mobile Meets Live Dealer Online Casinos
Over the past two years, live dealer games have been at the forefront of online casino gaming. Players want to experience their favorite table games as they would if they were at a physical casino location. With live dealer, the online casinos are able to stream footage of game play in real time straight from the table, as players at home make decisions as the game takes place.
Because live dealer games like baccarat and blackjack are so popular, online casinos have now begun to focus their efforts on offering such games via mobile devices. To do this, content has to be streamlined with mobile platforms adapted to meet any challenges standing in the way. Leading interactive provider of live dealer games, Vivo Gaming,  is one company that is focused on creating mobile content that works in the live dealer mobile category.
The company had to adapt in several ways to be able to offer quality mobile options with live dealer games. The screen size plays a major factor, so Vivo decided to develop a new UI for mobile that operates in HTML5, which helps to preserve functionality without cutting down on the overall player experience.
A Look at Key Online Casino Industry Trends
Because mobile gaming continues to become a more popular option for players, trends have begun to emerge. While live dealer is the top option when it comes to game play, another key trend right now is cryptocurrency usage. Players have really taken to using cryptocurrency with their online game play and with mobile gaming, players want the same convenience.
Players want access to cryptocurrency for their mobile gaming needs, due to the added layer of protection as well as ease of use. Online casinos have noticed the cryptocurrency trend and are adapting their banking options to include such cryptocurrency options as Litecoin and Bitcoin.
As 2018 ends and 2019 emerges, we are sure to see even more trends created involving mobile casino gambling, particularly with live dealer games. Operators and software developers will continue to find new and exciting ways to bring casino content to mobile devices.
