888 Poker App ImprovementsAfter thoroughly testing out the 888 Poker App over a period of two weeks, I can say that overall I am highly impressed by the features the app offers which include the ability to play cash games and tournaments right from your mobile phone or tablet.

I highly recommend the 888 Poker App as it is among the top options for playing poker from your phone or mobile device, both real money and play money games can be used once you have created an account.

The 888 Poker App supports Android and iOS meaning that most new Samsung phones as well as iPhones and iPads are supported the only downside is that there is no 888 Poker Windows App so many Nokia and Microsoft phones are left in the dark for the time being.

The menu is simplistic and you can toggle between Standard Tournaments and Snap Poker via a tiny tab on the side of the screen.

The 888 Casino and Bet on Sports features can be accessed at the bottom of the page.

The Cashier, account details and App settings can be changed from the menus at the top of the page.

We have previously reviewed the 888 Poker App, so if you would like to know more about the app’s features please read that post.

I would like to move onto what can be improved in the 888 App.

888 poker down888 Poker is currently down once again, it appears that play on all servers for cash and tournaments is suspended and has been so for the last hour and counting.

Many were affected by an 888 Poker server crash as they were disconnected at the time of the crash and were unable to login thereafter.

When trying to login users were welcomed with a pop-up message stating: Unable to Connect, Please try again or contact member support.

We successfully logged in via the no download aka flash version of their software which seems to still be up and running but network traffic is down as play is suspended.

No information about the crash is available yet and players have been reporting the issue on the 888poker forum.

The Tournaments show: “The Tournament has been paused due to network issues. Play will be resumed as soon as possible.”

We recently posted about 888 Poker down a couple months ago and here. Post traffic on those pages surges when 888 goes down, so my guess is that 888Poker servers have crashed fairly often lately, possibly as a result of higher than expected traffic from freerolls and promotions.
