Aptoide Insights - Betting App Trends
Every year, people all around the world place their bets on their favorite teams. There are traditional bets that people take every year (or every derby), and there are long traditions of sports betting superstitions. Other than your personal knowledge of the games, all you had at your disposal was praying to the gambling gods!
Or at least it was like this up until very recently.
No longer superstition bettors
Today, most betting fans have a lot more information at their disposal and even analytical systems that used to be exclusive to professional bettors. Fading the public (betting against the public opinion) is no longer the only strategy available for amateurs. Nowadays you can really get the best in the world sports predictive algorithms advising you on bets.
This has led to a huge increase in the number of amateur bettors, which also reflects into betting app downloads. Apps such as Bet365, Betclic and William Hill are amongst the most downloaded on Aptoide.
