Paddy Power, Ireland's largest online bookmaker, have released a downloadable versions of their popular sports betting app for iPhones.  Back in June Paddy Power an iPhone web app that had all the functionality of their regular website.  This new sports betting app was optimised for the iPhone and iPad, allowing customers open new accounts, deposit or withdraw funds, review their betting and transactions history and place multiples.

Paddy Power has now gone one better by making their betting app available for download from the Apple App Store.  Paddy Powers decision to develop a full native iPhone app was no doubt influenced by Betairs success in getting Apple to finally approve a real money gambling app.  Until then Apple have been very reluctant to allow real money betting apps into the App Store.

This new iPhone betting app is free to download from the App Store but is currently only available to Paddy Power customers in the United Kingdom and Ireland.  Customers in all other jurisdictions can still use the Paddy Power browser based Web App.

The new App, which also works on the iPad and iPod Touch, gives Paddy Power customers full access to all the sports from the main site, as well as thousands of markets and novelty bets.  The Paddy Power iPhone app also supports Live Betting, Money Back Specials, Guaranteed Prices, Extra Place Specials, popular multiples, accumulators and more.
